As far as what to bring., which is a very good question. Rather than us guess what you think is the obvious stuff, let's compare lists and see what you already have.
You are not going to be on your own. You will be squaded with one or more people. They will have spotting scope and stool, shooting mat, spotting board and timer. You can bring your own too if you like.
What you need is your own supplies, ammo, cleaning supplies, cross sticks (maybe share) wiping rod or blow tube, sight settings are not necessary but at least a good 200 meter (yards will do) setting. From there the delta is about up 12 to pigs, up 15 to turkeys and up 19 to rams. This is close enough to get your bullet seen on the berm to start. Some smart guy on here is going to want to argue these come-ups. It is not worth our time to debate them. All loads and rifles will be a little different - yours too.
Bring lunch, unless they serve lunch like some of the better matches. A chair just in case and some note paper to write down your settings and all the things you discover you want to do, build, and buy before the next match.
