Once a match is approved and sanctioned it will get displayed on the global Match Calendar (Level III, IV and V Matches).

what makes practical shooting unique?
IPSC shooting competitions present varied degrees of difficulty. No shooting challenge or time limit may be protested as being prohibitive. Specific requirements for non-shooting challenges should reasonably allow for differences in competitor’s height and physical build.

the best athletes in the shooting world!
The value of IPSC shooting competition is determined by the quality of the challenge presented in the course design. Courses of fire are designed primarily to test a competitor’s IPSC shooting skills, and not their physical strength or gymnastic abilities.
