BERRYVILLE, Ark. - The International Defensive Pistol Association (
IDPA) announced that the 2013 New England Regional IDPA Championship will take place at the
Harvard Sportsmen's Club August 16 thru 18, 2013.
Hosted by the
MetroWest Tactical IDPA club, the 2013 New England Regional Championship will bring together upwards of 160 top IDPA shooters from throughout New England.
"The New England Regional is a must-attend match for IDPA shooters in the Northeast and always an outstanding match thanks to the dedication and hard work of IDPA volunteers and the organizers at MetroWest Tactical," said Tom Yost, IDPA's area coordinator for the Northeast Region.
"IDPA is growing rapidly here in New England with MetroWest Tactical showing 118% growth in monthly match attendance over the last three years, and nearly 30% last year alone. I expect the 2013 New England Regional IDPA Championship to be another packed event."
