CFDA Regulators & Territories
(Revised March 2026)
Click the above link to view the Regulator Guidelines.
The Regulator Guidelines explain the intent and purpose of the CFDA Regulator Posse as well as the qualifications to become a CFDA Regulator
Purpose
The Regulator Posse was formed to help support the growing number of CFDA members and
affiliated clubs and to help the sport grow. Regulators will provide training and support to both
new and existing clubs. Regulators may also represent the CFDA at events and functions
outside of CFDA. US Marshals will continue to be the CFDA’s rule making body. The
Regulators will insure that the rules are taught and applied properly. The Regulator Posse has
no authority over how CFDA affiliated clubs are run. Members of the Regulator Posse will meet
periodically, usually at CFDA sanctioned or titled matches to discuss issues and exchange
information. Regulators will meet annually during the CFDA World Championships.
The “Territorial Map” was updated in 2026 to create 7 Territories. Territories are divided and created based upon membership numbers and need in that area. Territories were first created in the beginning of our sport for the purpose of promoting “Territorial Championships”. As the CFDA has grown, the Territories have become a useful way for regions to get support through their Regulators and Territorial Governors.
Territorial Governors
The CFDA Territorial Governors are also the Board of Directors on the Cowboy Fast Draw Association Non-Profit. The Territorial Governors are an elected position, that are nominated and elected by the members in the Territory they represent. They are elected for a 2 year term. The initial Territorial Governors were appointed in 2025. Their initial term is set simply by whether the territory they represent is either an odd or even number. Once Territorial Governors are elected by the membership of their respective territories, they all become 2-Year terms. This means only 50% of the Territorial Governors may change each year, which provides continuity. For a complete understanding please refer to our CFDA, Non-profit By-Laws. You can also learn more about our Territorial Governors on the “About the CFDA” section on this website.
