Introduction
- The procedure outlined below shall apply in all cases where an UKPSA member wishes to participate in an IPSC match outside Great Britain as a competitor and/or Match Official. IPSC Competition Rules state:
- 6.5.1 All competitors and Match Officials must be individual members of the IPSC Region in which they normally reside. Residency is defined as the Region where the individual is ordinarily domiciled for a minimum of 183 days of the twelve months immediately preceding the month in which the match begins. Ordinarily domiciled condition is a physical presence test and does not relate to citizenship or to any address of convenience. The 183 days need not be consecutive or the most recent 183 days of the twelve month period.
- 6.5.1.1 In any case, match organizers must not accept any competitor or Match Official from another Region unless the Regional Director of that Region has confirmed the competitor’s or Match Official’s eligibility to participate in the subject match, and that the competitor or Match Official is not under sanction from the IPSC Executive Council.
