Congratulations to first time state team members Darlene Raiford and Matthew (Pete) Landfried.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’ve had a few questions about categories and target requirements. Below is the section of the WVATA Bylaws pertaining to the make up of the WV State Team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ARTICLE XVI
SELECTION OF ALL-STATE TEAM
Section 1. The all-state teams will consist of two teams. The 1st team: A captain, four team members, a lady 1 and lady 2 , a veteran, a senior veteran, a sub veteran, a junior, a junior gold, and a sub junior (if two or more are in each category) (amended 2018). The 2nd team: A captain, four team members, and all special categories. (ALL SPECIAL CATEGORIES ADDED TO THE SECOND TEAM AMENDMENT JULY 1997)
Section 2. The state ATA delegate shall determine the team from state residents that are qualified and in good standing with the Association and the ATA.
Section 3. Minimum qualifications: (amended 2009) (amended 2016)- registered targets only \u2013 does not include registered league targets (amended 2018).
(A) Men\t\t 1000 16 yard targets
Sub Vet 1000 Handicap
\t\t 800 Doubles
(B) Lady 1 & 2\t 800 16 yard targets
Veteran\t 800 Handicap
Sr. Veteran\t 500 Doubles
Junior & Junior Gold
Sub Junior
(D) Shooters are required to shoot the 400 CHAMPIONSHIP TARGETS at the State Shoot to qualify for the State Team (Amendment July 1997)
Section 4. Computations for all around average: 16 yd average + handicap average + doubles average \/ 3 = all around average. The captain will have the highest average regardless of category, except for Captain of 1st team, special categories will take precedence over regular team member placement. Example: the Veteran with the highest average must take his category placement unless he has the highest overall average then he can choose to be captain or category. Category based on Classification at WV State Shoot.(amended 2016).
