November 24, 2022 by Jodi Humann

There are many things that make USPSA a great sport. The friends, the competition, and traveling to matches. But all of that would not be possible without all our wonderful volunteers!

The Ins-and-Outs of USPSA Certified Ammunition

October 13, 2022 by Troy McManus

USPSA has a certified ammunition program, where competitors can purchase ammunition from a USPSA certified manufacturer, whether from a secondary retail outlet (storefront or internet), or directly from the manufacturer.  This ammo may be purchased and brought to the match or shipped directly to the match.

NROI Discipline – How To Solve Issues On The Range and Off

August 25, 2022 by Troy McManus

In almost all competitive endeavors, there will be disputes: disputes about scoring calls, disputes about penalties, arguments over whether the ball was in or out, whether the runner was safe or out, or where that fish actually came from.

Check your gear, before you go

August 11, 2022 by Jodi Humann

One of the biggest challenges for new competitors is figuring out what gear they need, what gear is legal, and which division they need to register for. NROI and USPSA have been working on getting that info out there in multiple places, but here is a handy guide that has the info and links to resources in one place.

Updated Nationals Staff Applications

June 30, 2022 by Troy McManus

Due to the change in venue for the former 4 Division Nationals, new staff applications have been produced. NOTE: If you are on staff already and do not have any changes, i.e. will work both matches, then DO NOTHING. Do not apply again. If, however, you can only work one or the other, email me, Troy McManus, at [email protected], with the match your can work in the subject line and let me know. I will sort existing staff applications out. We will also provide the staff registration link to all accepted staff, but if you were in the match already, I believe Jake Martens has moved you. Please log in to Practiscore and check before emailing either one of us about your match entry. Here’s the link to the Nationals staff applications. Just log in to USPSA.org and select the match(es) you want to work. Carry Optics is overstaffed at present. More information will be provided to all accepted and standby applicants.

March 10, 2022 by Jodi Humann

In a previous post I explained the different certification levels that NROI offers. But now, let’s look at how those certification levels play into the different roles at matches of all levels, and how certification level sometimes doesn’t equal the duties assigned.
