Well done to all concerned. For all of us who know nothing about the sport could you tell us the meaning of the different divisions, and incidentally which clubs the team members selected hail from?

In relation to the clubs , MNSI , NITSA , and East Coast would cover I think all of the team members . The divisions would encompess , Production , pistol is normally 9mm cal , first shot must be DAO and the pistol must be on the IPSC approved list , the scoring sequence is somewhat differant for 9mm guns , with slightly less points available for c and d scoring hits . Standard division pistols are normally .40 Cal , single action only , the competitor is allowed to change various items in the gun , he or she is not allowed to use any form of compensator on the barrell , and the pistol must conform to a size specification . Senior is anyone over the age of 50 .

Just to clarify the scoring system , a competitior shooting a 9mm is scored 5 Points for a A zone , 3 points for a C Zone and 1 point for a D Zone hit, if you are shooting a major cal ie .40 , .45 , 10 mm you score 5 for a A zone , 4 for a C Zone and 2 for a D zone . Simply , you get more points if you shoot a major cal gun .

Just to clarify the scoring system for Production Division,
Major power factor is not applicable in Production Division,
There is no lesser score for 9mm in Production Division,
There is no higher score for .40 cal, .45 or 10mm in Production Division,
Everything is scored Minor in Production Division.

Scoring is as follows:
A = 5
C = 3
D = 1
