Hopefully some of you have read the news on the LDA site
We will once again have qualifying / world's spots available from Canada
After a worst case 2009, we are heading into a "best case" 2010.

Events will be 2 days of local qualifying taking 24 guys into a Sunday district championship for 2 spots(pending a full field) in the worlds for the open division as well as 1 spot available for seniors

This "diamond in the desert" style format condenses the qualifying down to one site, one weekend, so there are not several trips involved in the old style locals & districts we had years ago

Currently events confirmed in Red Deer in July, and I will be running mine here in Nova Scotia in September(correct dates are Sept 10-11-12). Talks of 2-4 other events looming as long as there are people and sites to run them

A bit of a plug for my event Smiley - range is almost 500 yards long, prevailing wind is down/crossing. Very good range owner will mow grid very short. Truro NS location is about 30 minutes from the Halifax International Airport, and 1 hr 20 minutes from Moncton NB. Usually some cheap flights on porter air and westjet into Halifax if you watch for seat sales.

Anyone thinking of running one of these events get to work and get a site confirmed, this can be better than ever for Canada

Great that there will be qualifying in Canada this year.
Will the qualifying be limited to Canadians only or are others able to participate?

There is some discussion's and planning under way---nothing yet of substance to report back with--But stay tuned here and on LDA site as well.   There are a few fellas who have things being discussed with the LDA and trying to work out Ranges and Sites --before anything is announced yet.
