This year's National Tour will be the biggest and best yet as hundreds of archers join the six stages of competition across the UK. The live finals at the end of August at Nottingham's scenic Wollaton Hall will be open to spectators to enjoy a day of world-class shooting from our compound, recurve, and barebow finalists.
A single world record status WA 70/50 round, followed by head-to-head eliminations.
Entries for all archers for all events will open on Thursdays at 7pm through the members portal. Mark your calendars!
Pre entry to the national tour stages (the Monday before entry opens for the stages) will be given to the following:
Individuals' highest top four National Tour stage results are added together, and then the archers are then ranked in their categories.
The top 8 ranked National Tour archers within the Recurve Men (RM), Recurve Women (RW), Compound Men (CM) and Compound Women (CW), and the top 4 Barebow from Barebow Men (BM) and Barebow Women (BW) divisions will be invited to the National Tour: The Final (Compound and Barebow Saturday and Recurve Sunday). Any declined places will be offered to the person next in the ranking list.
Should more than one athlete be in 8th place, the highest score for a ranking round will break the tie (should this be tied, the next score will be used). This information will be shown in the Final Rankings for the national tour, used to perform the invite.
From receipt of invitation, an athlete will have 7 days to accept their place at the finals.
The eight athletes in the finals were placed into the match-play charts for the quarter-finals following their final National Tour ranking position.
Further instructions on the finals procedures and any further rules for the finals will be communicated to the selected athletes nearer the time.
