NEW TO COMPETITION?

YOUR FIRST MATCH SHOULD NOT FEEL LIKE A MYSTERY.

We built a simple path from curious range shooter to confident first-time competitor—with clear expectations before you ever step into a squad.

YOUR FIRST MATCH

WHAT HAPPENS, IN ORDER.

REGISTER

Pick a beginner-friendly club match, choose your division if required, and reserve a slot.

PREP

Review the match listing, required equipment, start time, round count, and facility notes.

CHECK IN

Arrive early, check in at the clubhouse, and attend the new-competitor briefing.

MEET YOUR SQUAD

Your squad moves through the match together. Ask questions—experienced competitors expect them.

SHOOT THE MATCH

Listen to the range officer, follow the stage procedure, and focus on safe, deliberate execution.

COME BACK

Scores give you a baseline. Leagues and classes give you a way to improve between matches.

COMMON QUESTIONS

YOU DO NOT NEED TO LOOK LIKE A PRO TO PARTICIPATE.

Do I need to be fast?
No. Safe, controlled participation comes first.

Can I watch before entering?
Yes. Many club events welcome spectators in designated areas.

What if I do not know which discipline fits me?
Start with Intro to Competition or talk with the competition staff at check-in.
