Shooting Ground not paying class winner

[TerryTibbs]

Has anyone had similar?

A young lad I shoot with won his class at a CPSA ESP 100 Registered in October, he has contacted the ground on numerous occasions to try and secure his winnings. The club are giving him the runabout, and ultimately not paying out. Lots of excuses about we need to calculate the winnings etc, let me get back to you.

On the odd occasion I have won anything, its usually a brown paper envelope waiting behind the counter.

Whats the best way to resolve this? He isn't fussed about the money, it's more the principle. We all pay in and the club isn't paying out?

I would contact the CPSA , it a competition under their rules so ultimately they should enforce them. Hope you get it resolved but it’s something I hear a lot of with some ground owners being worse than others

Name and shame them?

I'm afraid there's a lot of clubs that like the benefits of cpsa reg shoots, but rarely run them to the letter of the rules. This is where the cpsa should come in..................

I agree with Jonz if the club are operating a CPSA Reg competition the CPSA should be informed and should be able to apply some pressure or demand that they do not use the CPSA's name.

I also agree that the club should be named and shamed Terry?

If the club isn’t paying out as per CPSA rules the CPSA shouldn’t give them reg shoots.
