Major Match Handbook
Whether you’re a major match veteran or this is the first major match you’ve ever worked, we ask that all staff read through our Major Match Handbook so that everyone is on the same page about how stages will be run, what the responsibilities of all staff are, and provide guidance on how to run an amazing match.
Food & Beverage & Shelter
Water will be supplied for all staff and competitors during the match. However, we need help from staff to supply the coolers for each stage. If you can bring a cooler for the stage that you’re working, please sign up here.
We’ve also included EZ-ups on this year’s sign ups. Some of our larger bays can benefit from having an EZ-Up shelter for staff to call their home base. If you’re able to provide one for your stage, please sign up here.
Lunch will be provided for staff on the days that they are working, Thursday through Sunday. A sandwich assortment of boxed lunches will be provided. A runner will bring lunches to each of the stages so that staff will not have to leave their stage.
Shooting Sports Innovations owner, Nathan Carter, will be on-site in the vendor village all weekend brewing up complimentary coffee for staff to help us get through the early mornings and long days. Be sure to stop by.
Since Saturday is going to be such an early morning, we’ll have some Chick-Fil-A sausage and chicken biscuits available for staff breakfast. You can pick them up at the Shooting Sports Innovations tent in the vendor village.
Staff Schedule
Embedded RO’s
A handful of staff will be working an alternative schedule. These individuals will be working during the staff match to run the timer and will shoot as competitors during one of the other matches over the weekend. Those acting in this capacity have already been notified. Another communication will go out to these individuals before the match to let them know where they will be working on Friday during the staff match.
Staff Parking
Staff should park in the parking spaces directly in front of the bays (see map). This area will be blocked off during the match so competitors cannot park here.
Chrono During Staff Match
All competitors shooting during the staff match on Friday will need to visit chrono with their equipment sometime between 8:30 am – 10:15am on Friday. This needs to be completed before the match begins and in the midst of getting stages ready to shoot in the morning. Please manage your time accordingly.
