We have 6 matches scheduled every other Wednesday through the end of March. Dates are Jan 11 & 25, Feb 8 & 22, Mar 8 & 22 from 6:00pm to 8:00pm. We will publish the course of fire here several days before the match.

Our goal is to get some quality trigger time in and have set up various COF to challenge a variety of shooters. For all the details please check:

Scores will be published on the above sites within a few days of the match.

The armored fire range range told me a week ago that they did not have any idpa matches going on. In addition the post on the tc idpa site said, organizer (name?) stated that they would not be conducting a league this winter. He also said not to ask if anyone else would be willing to put the league.

If this leaguue is occuring, what cost is involved and is is mandtory that participants have a national and/or local IDPA membership?

First of all welcome to the borad.

Yes it is occuring every two weeks. I just got back from the range and the cost is only $13.25.

It is not an IDPA sponsored event but Defensive Pistol League. It was a great course of fire tonight.

I was hoping it was for real. I will make it to the next one.
Thanks for the info!

Just to be clear, IDPA shooter was referring to an IDPA style league he had set up that had been taking place at Bill's north, while I believe Srigs was referring to the Defensive Pistol League that has been running Thursday nights at Bill's in Robbinsdale for many years now. (Unless some other league coincidentally charges the same $13.25 that ours does.)

On our Thursday league your $13.25 gets you a lane, 4 targets, and an hour long course of fire totalling about 95 rounds and including most types of shooting that can be done safely from a range lane: point shooting, double taps, mozambiques, slow fire, etc. We shoot at 5:00 every Thursday except during hunting rifle sight in and some holidays. If you can't make 5:00 a separately run group in the same vein shoots at 7:00. We aren't competing except with ourselves, this is more just an organized and fun way to practice various drills. Everyone is welcome.

I'm confused why the response to the January post now, but, for the record, I'm not running any Defensive Pistol League at Bill's North today. I also have no plans to run one again at either of Bill's ranges this fall or winter. Others may organize them, I would possibly attend, but I have no plans to run them

We will have at least monthly IDPA matches this fall and winter. We started in October and will run them thorough March ( we are skipping December) at Bill's Robbindale location. See details in another post.
