JP Enterprises To Be Event Sponsor of 2026 IDPA National Championship
The International Defensive Pistol Association (IDPA) is excited to announce that JP Enterprises has signed on as the official Event Sponsor of the 2026 IDPA US National Championship. 
The IDPA is the governing body of a shooting sport that simulates self-defense scenarios and real-life encounters. It was founded in 1996 as a response to the desires of shooters worldwide. The organization now boasts a membership of more than 22,000, including members in 75 foreign countries.
Joyce Wilson, IDPA Executive Director, said “We are so excited to be working with JP Enterprises. The JP Team includes many IDPA competitors and we are thrilled to have them as the title sponsor of the match. John Paul, the founder, owner, and design team leader of JP is an IDPA competitor. As a professional shooter, he established the company, which is renowned for manufacturing high-performance rifles for competition, law enforcement, and recreational use. We couldn’t put on matches like the National Championship without the support of generous sponsors like JP, and we’re very grateful.
“ The 2026 IDPA US National Championship match is scheduled for Sept. 24-26, 2026 at the Cardinal Shooting Center in Marengo, OH. The Tier 5 National Championship will host approximately 400 shooters who compete in 14 stages over three days of competition as they run through a variety of intense defensive situations. Team JP athletes- Andre DeSautel and JP founder, John Paul – will attend the 2026 IDPA US National Championship as both competitors and ambassadors for the brand.
“JP is proud to support the 2026 US National Championship as the Title sponsor,” said Jesse Gangl, Director of Marketing for JP. “This partnership exemplifies our ongoing commitment to competitive shooting sports, and fostering the spirit of competitive excellence. Our products are a perfect fit for the IDPA market, and we’re honored to stand beside IDPA in promoting safe, challenging, and enjoyable experiences for competitors.
