Welcome to IDPA at TCSL
What is IDPA?
IDPA (International Defensive Pistol Association) offers an action shooting sport that uses practical equipment with full charge service ammunition to solve simulated self-defense scenarios using practical handguns and holsters that are suitable for self-defense use. The main goal is to test the skill and ability of an individual.
UPDATE 05/10/23: We are no longer allowing appendix holsters in our monthly club matches.
We will still be allowing appendix holsters at the Tri-County Sportsmen Challenge.
For all matches you must register and pay using Practiscore.

2024 Season at TCSL
Additional Divisions For The Upcoming IDPA Season.
Hello Tri-County IDPA Shooters,
The new season is rapidly approaching and we hope you are looking forward to it as much as we are, despite the challenges of Covid and the current availability of ammo.
Although Covid is out of our control, and we will continue to follow all safety protocols, we have decided to make the following division changes to try and preserve everyone’s ammo.
We will be adding 3 more divisions using 22 caliber ammo. These divisions will be
- 22 Revolver
- 22 Pistol
- 22 Auto Rifle
All of the current regular IDPA rules will apply to these additional divisions.
Please contact Earl Austin ([email protected]) (734-645-3267) if you have any questions about these new divisions.
Registration for our March 23rd match opens in Practiscore on February 29th at 5:00PM.
Looking forward to seeing everybody on the range.
