Buy recommendations Handgun Competitions.

I am located in Calgary, Alberta and want to join a handgun competition however I am uncertain about the requirements around it. My range is located in Rocky Mountain House and has pistol ranges I use often.

Am I required to be IPSC certified for all of the competitions? If so what if my range doesn’t offer this course. Where can I do it.

Ultimately I’d love some advice or even pay for some information as to how one goes about joining a league and shooting competitively.

Thanks ahead of time!

And regardless of if every club requires a BB or not-
Just do it, other than the expense; no reason not too. You’ll gain a decent amount of practical experience in a supervised environment. Until you’ve done something like this; you just don’t realize how lacking and undisciplined you likely are- not a dig, just from my personal experience.
