The top 6 scores using the NC Circuit Shoot point system for each shooter plus 10 points each for the 7 th, 8th and 9th shoot, if attended, will be counted.
3. Clubs interested in hosting an NC Circuit Shoot and are in good standing with the SCANC will be eligible to host a circuit shoot if they wish. Clubs should not host more than one circuit shoot per year and their circuit shoot date should be scheduled with all other registered shoots.
4. Circuit Shoot participants should start no later than 1:30 p.m.5. The Circuit Shoot tournaments are designed to be main events for the day of the

All ties in Class will get the same points. For example, in a case where there is a 3-way tie for 2nd Place, the 1st place finisher in that class will get 100 points, the 3 shooters tied for 2 nd place will each get 90 points and the 5th place shooter will get 60 points, etc.
Payouts
Shoot Payouts

APPENDIX ESporting Clays Association of North Carolina Youth Sporting Clays Program
Document Title: Sporting Clays Association of North Carolina Youth Sporting Clays Program hereinafter designated as NCYSCP
Vision: To develop within the Sporting Clays Association of North Carolina a program that provides instructional and financial support to young shooters interested in Sporting Clays.
Mission: To foster the personal growth and development of young people of North Carolina and to increase participation in clay target shooting in our State.
Goal: To actively support young shooters in Sporting Clays by providing financial support, instruction, range accessibility, ammunition, targets, referees, meals, or any other support the Board deems appropriate to facilitate the participation of young shooters regardless of their ability. “Young Shooters” with regard to this appendix are shooters who have not graduated High School and have not reached their 18th birthday by the time of a SCANC sponsored event.
Funding: The Board will create a NCYSCP committee made up of a minimum of 3 current Board Members in order to administer the collection of funds and to provide a suggested event or program each year for Youth Shooters to participate in. The amount of support for any given event will be predicated upon the funds available in the NCYSCP account. Our Association is now a 501 (c) 3 North Carolina Non-profit Corporation and donations are generally tax-deductible. Funds may be solicited from a wide range of sources including the General Public, Ranges, Vendors, Association Members, Retail Stores, State and County Governments, manufacturers, The NRA, NSCA, DU, NWTF, auctions and designated tournaments. We will also accept non-cash donations of items for raffles, range time, ammunition, volunteer work, instruction, etc. All funding collected for the NCYSCP will be kept in a separate ledger account and all future financial statements will reflect the balance of this account and our standard operating account separately. Funds set aside for the youth account may never be used for the standard operating account nor may they be counted in order to comply with our required minimum balance set forth in our By Laws. Donors’ names and the amount of their donation may be listed on the Association website if the donor wishes or donations may be anonymous.
Allocation of Funds: The monies collected for this purpose may be used at the discretion of the current Board in order to best serve the Young shooter in any given year. Some suggestions have been to host a youth-only tournament or a tournament where young shooters are partnered with adult SCANC shooters. Other suggestions have been to pay for target fees for Young shooters, provide instructional or training events just for the youth, provide scholarships for deserving young people to attend college, support youth events with meals or ammunition, or help defray the cost of travel. It is incumbent on each new Board to determine how best to serve North Carolina’s youth program.
We are all responsible for, and have a vested interest in our Young Shooters. Remember the first time someone took you shooting and you broke your first clay target. It is no different today, someone is waiting for you to take them. I hope you will show your support by making a contribution to North Carolina’s young men and women who have chosen to be a part of this extraordinary sport.
