Jim explained it very well. I would only add that most clubs welcome new shooters with open arms and will bend over backward to help you safely have a good time. Expect at a minimum a "new shooters briefing" possibly more detailed instruction. Always remember there are a few grouchy old farts everywhere and don't let them scare you. Every one of us had to shoot a "first match" somewhere in the past. Obviously, its great fun or we wouldn't have come back. Bet you can't quit after your first match.
USPSA is a bit more fun than IDPA as USPSA is "free-style". You see the course and you decide how you will shoot it within the limits of the rules, common sense, and safety guidelines.
Bring lots of mags and ammo, some courses can be long with reasonably high round counts.
Have fun, be safe, shoot alpha's!
