Rain Cancellation today for the Steel Challenge shoot. The weather isn’t going to be favourable at any point during set up or shooting.
Stay tuned for info about last weekends IPSC shooting. We had numerous shooters complete the Black Badge Certification course and there were quite a few shooters that safely completed Level I and Level II matches this weekend to complete their Black Badge Certification.
Practiscore is the full-function scoring system that we use for our matches. Please go to PractiScore.com and create your own login and profile. We will be switching to online registration over the season and certainly for our Provincial Match. Online registration will have a reduced cost of registration and the ability to pay online.
Our 1st IPSC Match is in the books and we had our first Steel Challenge match last Tuesday evening. Both were a success and we will be continuing with Steel Challenge each Tuesday evening (***WEATHER DEPENDENT – so subscribe to this page for updates or tell anyone that may be thinking about coming out to shoot to subscribe to the page for updates***).
If a match is cancelled it will post it on here, otherwise everything is proceeding as normal – this will then post to our FaceBook page and Twitter account. If the weather is sketchy and you’re wondering about a match; be sure to check the ‘Latest News’ tab on the IPSCNL.ca website before you head to the range.
See you Tuesday evening. Start at 6:00pm. Cost is 5$ for Steel Challenge.
Hello everyone, just a quick reminder that we are starting our steel challenge matches tomorrow evening at Range C of the St. John’s Rod and Gun Club. First shot is planned for 6:00 pm sharp. The earlier you can get out – the better, we can always use a little help for the set up. If you are one of the new folks that have expressed interest in coming out to shoot – just walk on up to whomever is there and introduce yourself. You’re going to get a chance to meet everyone once we start shooting anyway. 😉 Cost of Steel Challenge is $5.
Our first IPSC Match of the season is this coming Saturday, May 12th. Again, we are hoping to see lots of new faces that have completed the Black Badge Certification courses over the last month – come on out early to help set up and meet everyone. First shot is planned for 10:00am and this is easy to do when we have a few hands out there to help build the stages. I’ll be out there for 8:30am to get things rolling. Cost of IPSC Matches is $10, payable at the Range before you shoot.
See the attached poster and information. Just a quick reminder about the Black Badge Certification courses coming up this season.
Pass it along to anyone you know that may be interested! Interest is certainly up this year and we are planning on making it a memorable season of shooting.
I hope that all is going well with you. If you are reading this, that’s great – however, I’m in the process of creating a large email list. It has come to our attention that some people have tried to subscribe to this website and had a problem completing the process. Regardless, you are reading this so all is good; however, if you wish to be added to the new distribution list please send a quick email to section.coordinator@ipscnl.ca with a quick message to be added to the DL.
I may switch to using a distribution email list as opposed to having people register to this site. Lots of folks just want to be added to the loop and get an email, without having to go and register. That’s fine with me. I just want everyone to be getting the same message a one email distribution list allows that.
The website is now updated with scheduled matches, Black Badge Certification Course information and out 2018 Provincial Match info.
Please go view the info and let me know if I missed anything, something is wrong OR you would like to announce anything IPSC related as I don’t have a problem passing along info for you.
Hello Shooters,
The Executive for IPSCNL hope that you are enjoying the festive season and getting a chance to spend time with family and friends.
We are looking forward to 2018 and are planning a shooting schedule that will benefit everyone and provides an opportunity for all shooters to get out and enjoy the sport!
The 2018 IPSC Canadian National Championship is being held in Selkirk, Manitoba in August; and for the 3rd Consecutive year we are planning on having IPSCNL shooters at this event! If you are interested in getting to shoot a Level 3 Match (and work at a Match of this size); please don’t hesitate to contact one of the Executive Members. See link below.
2018 IPSC Canadian Nationals
IPSCNL always has a fun time at this Level 3 shoot!
Remind that our Annual IPSCNL Membership Expires Dec 31st and we can start taking member registrations at any time.
Take Care everyone and keep your gear ready to go!
Rick Crane
Section Coordinator IPSCNL
Just wondering who may be interested in going to shoot at the 2018 Nationals in Selkirk, MB in August? It’s a Level 3 Match and all are welcome. Selkirk has a new multi-million dollar facility for this event.
One of the benefits of being in a smaller IPSC Section is that if you want to attend a large Canadian Competition we can always register people in under our Division Teams. If you’ve never been to a large match – it is quite the experience! When you are shooting – you shoot only! When it’s time to work – you work BUT you get to meet loads of great people.
I’m currently looking for accommodations for our Teams; such that we can all stay together if people want to. We’ve done this in the past and it’s great fun. I have a line on some houses that we can rent, not far from the range. Cook our own meals and relax in the evening by the fire.
So, if anyone is planning on attending and would like for me to track down accommodations for us – text or email me. I’d just like to know how many we can plan for and what divisions people are shooting.
