Jane Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 Do we have a date yet for the Nats? I have looked at the Major Match section of the website, and it still is not posted. There has been some speculation... but no official announcement. (The countdown on IDPA's website would seem to indicate September 26.) I posted the question on Ted Murphy's IDPAforum (Ted is MD for this year's Nationals), but as yet nobody is giving an official answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freeidaho Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 There has been some speculation... but no official announcement. (The countdown on IDPA's website would seem to indicate September 26.)

I suspect that when all the details of date and range use, etc have been firmed up, that a date will be publically announced. I'm standing by patiently!

Clay1 Posted February 1, 2007 Share Posted February 1, 2007 TRP Professional, this is early news and everything isn't firmed up yet but this was recently posted about the state match in Wisconsin and I thought that since we are close that you might be interested in attending: "James Williams D Class Poster Joined: 13 Oct 2005 Posts: 12 Posted: Wed Jan 31, 2007 7:57 pm Post subject: 2007 State IDPA Match -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I have heard via the grapevine that folks are starting to wonder about the status of the 2007 IDPA State Match. Here's where we stand as of today. Normally we have the annual state match committee meeting in mid-January, so match announcements are out by Feb. 1. However, this year I had major knee surgery in early January and was not able to gather the clan at the usual time. However, we do have certain things more or less in place. The match will probably be held at Schultz's again this year, and on our traditional date, i.e., the first weekend in August. This must be confirmed at the next meeting of the board of Schultz's next week, but at this point we know of no impediment to the date and location. I will post the confirmed date and location after the board meeting next week. The match committee will be meeting in the next few weeks to firm up responsibilities and organizational details. If you are interested in participating in the organizational chores involved, please drop me a line at bowrainbow@hotmail.com. We'll be putting out a call for SO's later this winter. FYI, we will probably be holding an SO class sometime in March here in Ripon. I'll post date and details at a later time. _________________ IDPA Area Coordinator for Wisconsin " I hope that this helps you make plans, Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
novafla Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 Do we have a date yet for the Nats? I have looked at the Major Match section of the website, and it still is not posted. Near as we figure it, it's the last week (Thursday-Saturday)in September in Pennsylvania. The Ontalaunee Club is holding the PA. State Match earlier in the season, so it probably won't be there. Best guess is it will be the same venue that hosted the PA. State Match last year. Many of us are wondering if that club has enough facility to host such a large group...perhaps they have a second venue in mind as well (2 clubs for the match), or maybe we'll be surprised and they will come up with something altogether different. Doesn't it seem unusual that these logistics questions haven't been answered as yet? We would think that a national match like this would need to have a contracted venue in place before being awarded. We all look forward to more information as it becomes available.

It's doable in PA from Ontario rather than Arkansas from Ontario. Less trvel time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Moneypenny Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 Guys i think if you shoot one. and send in your app with current classification. and a nice letter they might let you in providing the match doesn't fill up. This isn't about seasoned competitors. it's about knowing the IDPA rules and abiding by them atleast that's the impression i have gotten. there will be a WV state match i've heard this year. and have heard talk of an ohio.. b ut all require some travel.

Zerwas Posted February 6, 2007 Author Share Posted February 6, 2007 Steve I don't think that one match and a letter are going to get you into the Nationals.Bill Yeah, I don't think so either. That's fine though. I never expected to receive any preferrential treatement because I am a USPSA shooter. I think I mentioned this before, but IDPA is where I started shooting competitvely. I enjoy both disciplines, and continue to shoot both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
