SPECIAL PIE is proud to announce its sponsorship of IPSC Ockelbo – Desert Challenge 2026, taking place from September 5–6, 2026, in Ockelbo, Sweden. As the exclusive timing sponsor of the event, SPECIAL PIE will provide professional shot timers and our Wireless Competition Score Display System, supporting an accurate, transparent, and efficient competition experience.

The 2026 Desert Challenge is a Level III IPSC competition featuring 12 stages and is expected to bring together around 240 competitors for an exciting weekend of competitive shooting.

By connecting the Wireless Competition Score Display System with our shot timers, competition results and timing information can be displayed clearly and intuitively for competitors, Range Officers, and spectators. As digital score display systems are becoming an increasingly popular trend in shooting competitions, this solution can help improve the transparency of competition results, reduce opportunities for manual interference, and reduce the workload of Range Officers, making the overall competition more efficient and streamlined.

As a technology-driven manufacturer of shooting equipment and training solutions, SPECIAL PIE is committed to supporting IPSC competitions with reliable and innovative technology. Through our continued support of shooting events around the world, we hope to contribute to the growth of competitive shooting and help bring smarter, more efficient, and more transparent solutions to the sport.

We are proud to be part of Desert Challenge 2026 and look forward to an exciting competition in Sweden!
