What you need to know about the 2024 national target rankings

• The National Rankings for each year are decided by the number of points an archer gains from up to five world record status events within the UK.
• Only one result is required to qualify for the National Rankings.
• If an archer shoots more than five world record status events, only their highest sets of points will be used. Ranking points expire 12 months after they were gained.
• These results will stand for twelve months to the day that it was shot, at which point it will then drop off. It will be replaced with your next score earned.

• Qualifying events are to take place from the first outdoor event of the year and must be completed by the last full week in October of the same year.
• There are 4 Tiers of events, each providing opportunities for archers to score Ranking points: Tier 1, Tier 2 +, Tier 2 and Tier 3

No, you don't have to submit your scores manually. All scores shot at world record status events will be automatically included in the following national ranking update. If the club running the shoot don't send their information within 72 hours of the shoot's completion, the scores may not be included in the next ranking update, but rather one a couple of weeks following the event.
