Suitability

Who it's for

Who this match suits — and who should rethink.

1
Competitive ShootersWell suited: teams who enjoy timed stage work and leaderboard competition will find direct match experience and scaled prizes rewarding.
2
BeginnersOpen to shooters of all skill levels, but note this is a competition rather than an instructional class—new shooters should be comfortable operating their own firearm safely.
3
Buddy TeamsIdeal for pairs: the format is explicitly team-based, encouraging partner tactics and camaraderie on the HAVOC courses.
4
Those Seeking InstructionNot ideal: instructors or instructional classes are not included in the match offering, so participants should not expect coaching during the event.
