Morgan Allen of Team International Training, Inc. (ITI) has been chosen to compete for Team USA at the inaugural IDPA World Championship, to be held September 21st through September 24th, 2011 at the Universal Shooting Academy in Frostproof, FL. Allen was chosen to represent the US in the Enhanced Service Pistol (ESP) Division.
IDPA Headquarters asked their US members to choose who they wanted to represent the United States in the inaugural IDPA World Championship. The people that garnered the most votes in each division were contacted and all expressed their honor at being elected to be the representatives of Team USA at this inaugural world event. Other team members include: David Olhasso (Custom Defensive Pistol), Robert Vogel (Stock Service Pistol), Craig Buckland (Stock Service Revolver) and Jerry Miculek (Enhanced Service Revolver).
As with all of the teams, each of these members will be competing not only for their country, but also for individual standing at this match.
This has been a whirlwind year for Allen, who suffered a broken wrist in the beginning of the season and was forced to take time off to undergo surgery and recovery. His absence from the competition did not seem to impact Allen too much as he has already placed 2nd in ESP Division at two matches since his return. Since 2007, Allen has won 30 IDPA State and Regional Division Championship titles, as well as five top five Division finishes at IDPA National Championship matches. His selection for Team USA is the capstone and ultimate compliment for Allen’s 2011 competitive season.
