2024 MasterCraft BallOfSpray Cash Prize

[Horton]

The 2024 MasterCraft BallOfSpray Cash Prize will be held on September 28-29  at Bell Acqua Lake 3 in Rio Linda California.

Pro and amateur skiers alike will compete for up to $6,000 in prize money. The event is comprised of 2 rounds of prelims and a final. Every competitor will ski 3 times and every competitor has an opportunity to take home prize money. The 16 skiers with the highest scores will compete in one head-to-head final and the remaining skiers will compete in a handicap final.

Boys and Girls 1-5 will ski Class C with a $75 entry fee. They will compete in a handicap format for juniors only.  All adults will ski class E or L.

General Notes and Rules

1. To be eligible for the handicap round, a skier must have scores from 3 or more different USAWS tournaments in the previous 24 months
2. Handicaps will be calculated from each skier's USAWS 12-month 3 score average. If a skier does not have 3 scores from the last 12 months a 24-month average will be used
3. BallOfSpray reserves the right to tweak individual handicaps and entry qualifications as needed
4. Non-USAWS skiers who can provide documentation of scores from other federations will be admitted at the discretion of the event organizer
5. The total prize money depends on the number of entries. If there are 40 adult entries there will be $6,000 in total prize money.

All scores will be entered into the Cash Prize Score Book without regard to boat speed. The values for 34 MPH scores will be used for 36 mph and 32 mph skiers.

• Example: 4 @ 38 off = 100 buoys at 34mph and at 36 mph and at 32 mph

All rules are subject to change.

Entries are non-refundable unless the event fills. Entry fees will only be refunded when a skier from the waiting list replaces a canceled entry.

The entry fee is $225 for adults (Class L or E) and $75 for juniors ( Class C)
