NASPA certifies directors as being qualified to direct sanctioned tournaments and clubs. The NSA has stopped doing so.

Certification

Tournament vs. club directors

Currently the same certification applies to both tournament and club directors. The certification criteria are set by the Tournament Committee and the Club Committee jointly.

NSA directors

Current active tournament and/or club directors certified by NSA who join NASPA are “grandfathered” in, that is, they are automatically certified as tournament and club directors by NASPA.

New directors

The director certification page explains the certification process for NASPA members who want to become certified as directors for the first time.

Maintaining status

The criteria for maintaining certified director status and for restoring a lapsed certification are set by the Tournament Committee and the Club Committee.

When significant changes are made in the Rules Manual and/or Director Manual, directors may be required to retake the director test as a review at no charge. This can be done by email, or when the online test is implemented, online.

Resources for directors

Here are some resources for directors to help them do their job. If you need something that isn’t listed below, please let us know and we’ll add it.

  • Communicating with other directors: There is an online group (naspa-tcd) where sanctioned directors discuss questions and issues with other directors, including hearing what they have to say about all facets of organizing and running sanctioned NASPA clubs and tournaments.

Check the Player Resources page for scoresheets and other player-related forms and links.
