Indoor Competitions
Indoor tournaments are held for the
Olympic (recurve) and Compound Divisions. Olympic Division events are generally held at
either 25 meters or 18 meters.
In a 25-Meter Indoor Round, archers shoot 60 arrows at a 60 cm diameter target face. In
the 18-Meter Indoor Round, archers shoot 60 arrows at a 40 cm diameter target face.
Championship events employ a Grand Indoor Round which starts off with a Combined Indoor
Round (both 25-Meter and 18-Meter rounds) followed by a direct elimination competition for
the top 16 archers. These direct elimination matches are 15-arrow matches shot at a
special 20 cm diameter target face.
For the compound division, a Combined Indoor Round includes 60 arrows shot from 25 meters
at 40 cm diameter target face. A Double Compound Indoor Round includes two successive
Combined Indoor Rounds.
The Grand Indoor Round is used in championships. It consists of a Double Compound Indoor
Round from which the top 16 archers go into a direct elimination with 15-arrow matches
from 25 meters at a special 20 cm diameter target face.
