About the club from the club's website
Welcome to PPLA , Victoria's largest IPSC club. Here you will find what we believe are the best facilities in Victoria that through a combination of regular competition, training and intro days enable us to shoot all three disciplines of IPSC.
Situated at the SSAA Eagle Park range complex at Little River, we have access to 18 pistol ranges which can be used for shotgun and rifle competition as well. Thus the ability of PPLA to run pistol, rifle and shotgun competitions put us in a position envied by many.
We have a fully self-contained clubhouse with all facilities; kitchen, toilets, showers, TV and a great heated and cooled clubhouse to keep us warm in winter and cool in summer. Our club has hosted many National and International events over the years including the IPSC National Championships, IPSC Australasian Championships, Steel Challenge Nationals and the World Police and Fire Games.
PPLA is an IPSC only club, in that we only compete in the one discipline. IPSC is the fastest, most action orientated pistol sport in the world. Competitors use only full power handguns with a minimum calibre of 9mm. IPSC originated in the US in the early 1950’s and has become a favourite in over 125 countries around the world. More information on IPSC can be found at www.ipsc.org.au .
