Procedure for League Rule Changes

Occasionally, a situation will arise that may warrant discussion of a possible future rule change for your league. Rule changes should not be taken lightly, and thought out carefully, as the slightest change could tremendously affect the overall dynamics of the league. When considering a rule change proposal, ask yourself if the end result would create a win/win situation for all involved.

A rule change proposal may be submitted by anyone, but only during our two largest leagues, i.e., Spring or Fall. Any written proposal should be submitted to gun club management, which will in turn be copied, and distributed to all team captains. Team captains will have two weeks to discuss the proposal with their team members. A vote will be taken the third week, and 2/3 of the team captains must vote in favor of the proposal to put the change in effect.

A copy of the league rules can be made available to any league shooter, at any time. An infraction not covered specifically by a league rule, may fall back on the rules governing the A.T.A. (Amateur Trapshooting Association).

Each league's Rules & Grievance Committee is selected on the 2nd night of each new league. Five names are drawn at random from the league roster. Any suspected rules violation should be reported to a member of this group.
