THE GUIDE
COMES FIRST.

Local qualification, registration, equipment, range commands and the shape of your first match.

NEW SHOOTER FIELD GUIDE

IDPA is a supported match type. Historical dates are not current bookings.

The DAP instructors identify IDPA in the club’s early-signup benefits. Its current schedule and fee CONFIRM. Multigun, Wednesday summer steel and Thursday practice remain historical / unverified. Ask Match Support before making plans.

SIGN-UPS / PRACTISCORE

HOW TO REGISTER
ON PRACTISCORE.

  1. Create a free PractiScore profile, then sign in. Online match registration requires a free account. You do not need to buy a mobile app to use the website.
  2. Open the Diablo Action Pistol club page. Or choose Clubs and search DAP. Look at Upcoming Matches for matches and Events for orientation. The main description directs IDPA shooters to a separate DAP IDPA club listing; ask Match Support for the correct current entry if needed.
  3. Choose the correct dated entry. Read its full description, eligibility, check-in, gear, fees and payment instructions before registering. An “open” club badge is not a seat guarantee; the actual event page controls availability.
  4. Complete the event’s sign-up when eligible. Follow the instructions PractiScore displays. Use a waitlist only if that event actually offers one; do not assume every event has a waitlist or that a request is a confirmed place.

EARLY ENTRY / CLUB APPROVAL

Free account ≠ approved DAP club membership.

Paid DR&GC members can request to join DAP on PractiScore. While signed in, use the club’s membership / join control. Send your DR&GC payment receipt or membership-card photo to matchsupport@diabloactionpistol.com.

Approval is manual and may take a day or two. Approved membership provides early USPSA / IDPA signup before the public and club discounts. It does not replace DAP qualification.

The public, signed-out club page does not expose a direct join URL; it says to log in to follow or apply for membership.
