NEW for 2017 - Please read!

In an effort to make things fair for all folks, we are implementing a few changes.

If you register for an event and we have to close your class' registration because we have reached capacity, and in the last week before the event you are not able to make the event, there will be no refund. We do not like turning folks away and a week's notice is not enough time to get someone to fill your spot.

If there are less than five competitors registered for a class one week out from an event, those competitors will be moved into another class. Similarly, if there are less than three competitors in a class on the field for an event, those competitors will be moved into another class.

If there are less than four competitors in a class, there will be no medals awarded.

If you are not there when we do awards, or do not have a representative there, you will not receive awards.

If you are single and have won the Eternal Warrior Award (at VSG) a second will not be awarded. If you are married and have won one for yourself and a second one for your spouse (as a thank you for their patience and dedication to your goals) a third will not be awarded. If you are married and your spouse is a thrower, they must earn their own. Only one will be awarded in this case.

Stephanie Stewart Fitzsimmons has designed and crafted an award in honor of her late husband Bob Stewart. It is awarded only at VSG to the overall winner of each class. It has only been awarded to three (I think) non-throwers since its inception.
