Well, it could mean the Russian Foundation for Basic Research.
Or a group of bench-rest target shooters.
Or a group of rimfire shooters who want to shoot Russians.

I got a 10-22 that was Volquartsen customized back before he started making his own. Quite the tack driver, that.

At the Eustis Gun Club they have a group that shoots USBR, but I don't know if the matches are sanctioned.
I just checked the ARA website and it lists the Eustis Club holding sanctioned ARA matches. You have to be a member to shoot in the matches as the club doesn't allow non-members to use the facilities. A member can sign you in as a guest but if my memory is good, you can only be a guest 4 times.

At the Gateway Rifle and Pistol in Jacksonville they shoot IR 50/50 and they are sanctioned matches. I'm pretty sure they allow non-members to shoot in the matches. Their web site lists the Range Master's phone number and you could call for more info.

Port Malabar Rifle and Pistol Club located near Palm Bay, FL which is about a 2 hour drive, same as the Jacksonville range also shoots ARA matches.

Hopes this helps.

Big help. I’m An ARA registered shooter and have no problem joining the club if they have open membership. I’m 78 and won’t drive hours to shoot. I appreciate the time you took to reply. Thanks

As far as I know they have open membership. A call to the appropriate individual listed on the website will provide you with the necessary information about joining the club.
