Do we need an official classification to shoot this match or does USPSA allow unclassified shooters to compete?

No classification required at local matches (which this is).

I have no idea what this type of match is, but my 4 year old son is PDDNOS, or as one of his early intervention specialist called him "mild or high functioning autism" Even with just a "mild" case like my son I have a great appreciation for the care and attention children ( or adults ) with these syndromes need.

I would like to come shoot this match, what are the rules?

Max, Thank you! I had no idea my story was going to reach so many people! I am amazed by how far it went, The Woman of USPSA don't mess around.

I look forward to shooting with you as well.

Don't pass it up. Come out and shoot with us. You won't regret it. Just let them know you are new when you sign up and they will take care of you. Most of the experienced shooters are more than happy to help new shooters get going. All anybody really cares about is that you are safe. I suspect you will have a blast!! ( pun intended) and it is for a good cause.
