Great stuff everyone. Keep it coming. Reason this is being asked is a small task force has been formed to look further into a d2. But we are also wanted to help solve the fact that only 47% of those qualified go to nationals. If we can solve that then we don't beed d2. So help us? Question. Would a prelim/finals format make it worth it for your time and expense? Would more weeks between regionals and Narionals do it. ( Labor Day weekend nationsls). Let's here some ideas?

To answer the questions. We think we can fit about 600 pulls or 25 full teams in 2 days on 2 lakes, so that being said we are not sure where we will be but we hope to take more than 5 per team. If you graduated from a midwest school but did not ski we are leaving that door open right now, if we are not at full capacity then we will start taking those skiers as well. So far this event is turning out huge, looking forward to it.

26 teams and over 100 skiers signed up in under 1 week of announcing it

razor, are you having to pay the LOC a lake fee? I just hate to see that the putting up of judges in a class C be your tipping point of profit, can you put them up at a lake house or anything, is this for the Shane Dejong Fall Classic event? If so you should have about 15 teams there, 150-200 skiers at $40 a pop plus $5 to camp. $8,000 in revenue. Dont forget you can also charge a team fee around $25 which usually helps pay for the DJ or other nightly activities you are providing.

razoross, I'm surprised to hear some of your issues. But glad to help in anyway the NCWSA and midwest can.
Looking at the officials directory I think your issue seems to be more of an IOWA issue rather than midwest or NCWSA. Iowa has 1 regular judges in the entire state and 2 senior, ouch. Neighboring illinois has 10 seniors and 7 regular. So technically you need every regular senior judge in your state to run a class C without going outside your state.
As for money making, from my experience ncwsa events are huge money makers, they tend to be much more profitable than awsa events in my experience even if you have to put up a few judges. You get a ton of entry fees in ncwsa, even though the fees are low, b/c its one round you tend to have 100 skiers if not more compared to 30 entry fees in AWSA event tournaments so your income should be much higher.
I think what has happended a little in the midwest is b/c it has grown so much we are now at 3-4 ncwsa events in 1 weekend in the midwest and this has spread out the volunteer officials, promo boats , etc and I feel your pain there but its a good problem to have.
We have talked about coming out with a class U for NCWSA but problem is most kids want to get their scores on rankings for AWSA and thus the class C.
Its just going to be a matter of getting the ncwsa skiers to get their ratings, they could easily become regular judges in 4 years. We have seena huge increase in this in years, last year we hosted a 2 lake 400 skier 800 pull conference and the entire thing was almost ran by ncwsa skiers and recent alumni, a lot are getting their ratings,
But I do feel its important to have that regular rating to run these events, they are not easy and you tend to run into many more issues, protest, and rule interpretations at the NCWSA level so I feel regular judges should be on site to help run.

The always anticipated, never duplicated NCWSA Wildcard Selection Show is right around the corner! Tune in to www.ncwsa.com for the very exciting wildcard show. The show will be this Monday – October 7 at 7:00pm CST.
The show will kick-off by determining the two remaining schools who will get an invitation to the National Championships at Imperial Lakes in Imperial, California October 17-19.
The show will start with a simulated tournament of the top three teams in each region that did not make Nationals by placing top 5 at their own Regionals. Out of that tournament, the top 2 teams will get an automatic invite to the NCWSA National Championship.
Once the 22 team field is decided, each regional champion will get their automatic slot into Division 1. The remaining 18 teams will be thrown into the hopper for another simulated tournament to determine who are the top teams. 8 more teams will be placed into Division 1, making a total field of 12 (4 Regional Champions + 8 next at-large teams). The remaining 10 teams will make up Division 2.
This does indeed mean that a wildcard team, could be placed all the way up in Division 1, based on their full season performance.
The simulated tournaments will take the individual skier’s best scores of the fall season and put them all together.
It will be a great night with a lot of excitement. Please be sure to invite your family and friends to check it out.
