JHicks8h Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 2015 Illinois Sectional Championship at Devil’s Hole The 2015 Illinois Sectional Championship is scheduled for September 18-20 at Devil's Hole Range in Havana, IL. There are 11-12 stages planned, plus chronograph. Much of the staff that made the 2014 Sectional a success will be very involved ensuring 2015 is just as successful. Havana is a pleasant town located off the IL River approximately 1hr North West of Springfield, IL, 1hr South West of Peoria, IL. Match website and application will be posted very soon with the opportunity to do online registration.

aandabooks Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 I've already put it on my calendar. This was the first above club level match I shot last year. Now it's a little close and at the range I get a monthly match in when I can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JHicks8h Posted March 1, 2015 Author Share Posted March 1, 2015 Just to update everyone we felt it was in the best interest of the shooting industry to avoid utilizing paypal. We currently are working to establish an online gateway where we can accommodate online registration as well as accept the traditional paper forms. At that time we will have online squadding available and will send out PINs as required. We would like to welcome back SNS Castings, Automatic Accuracy, and welcome aboard CI Shooting Sports from Bloomington, IL as match sponsors. We should have online registration established by March 15. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff If your name shows up in the online squadding for the Illinois Sectional and you haven't received your PIN contact me either on FB or email ericgriggs@msn.com - I will get you your PIN. There is an issue with the website. USPSA's webmaster is working on it, but says it may be a week or so till they get it fixed.

JGus Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 For those looking to shoot this match in one day on an All Day Saturday squad you might want to register and get squadded. You can always change squads later. There are a total of 6 All Day Saturday squads (10 per squad), and half those 60 slots are already taken. The other two options are to shoot All Day Friday, but only a couple of those slots are left as it's primarily staff shooting that day, and the other option is to shoot it over two days (Saturday PM/Sunday AM).

aandabooks Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 Just signed my son and I up. Squadded this morning and down to 7 Saturday slots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1v3t0x0 Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 OK folks, I spent the day in Canton IL, the match hotel will be there. I am still working with a couple of hotels to find the best deal and will post that information as soon as I have it all worked out. It is a short 20 minute drive, north of Havana up 78. Canton has many nice restaurants that have been very receptive to group discounts, I have worked out a few deals with them as well. More details to follow.

TimH Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Jeff, we certainly appreciate you and your crews hard work with keeping us up to date with everything! I'm looking forward to this match and cant wait! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPsaw475 Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 How does the 8am Saturday and Sunday work? Saturday you shoot until you finish half the stages? Sunday you finish the other half? Same I assume for the Saturday/Sunday afternoon spots. Looking to try a match other than a local club match. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Yes, if you are on a Sat AM/Sun AM squad then you would shoot 6 positions each morning starting at 0800. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPsaw475 Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 If you sign up for Saturday at 1, are you able to (without interfering the match) look at the stages an hour or two before 1pm? Also if you sign up and pick a slot. Can you cancel a week or less if something comes up? My much younger brother will be starting college in the Fall and I am uncertain of his schedule and where he is going. He will be joining me at our first larger match. We usually shoot local clubs and this will be a first for both of us. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1v3t0x0 Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 You should be able to check out stages, there will probably be a lot of shooting going on until lunch time. We will give refunds and take shirt orders until Sept 1. No refunds or shirt orders after September 1, 2015! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPsaw475 Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 Sounds like this should work out. Thanks for the help. Are the shirts designs located on the page somewhere? Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
