Archery Planning Diary - Regular Events

The following entries show events that normally follow a simple rule as to timing. However, please bear in mind when planning your competition calendar, that these dates can only be considered provisional and are subject to confirmation by the individual tournament organiser or host club. This is especially true for March and April dates - because the date of Easter varies from year to year, events that would fall on Easter weekend are likely to be rescheduled.

Important Note: Tournaments advertised on this web site are normally only available to current members of GNAS or another national archery association affiliated to World Archery. Some longbow tournaments might also be open to BLBS members. Tournament Organisers are entitled to place additional restrictions on entries, so it is important to check any terms and conditions on the individual tournament entry form.

County matches in outdoor target archery are normally held during the period May - August each year, but are always subject to availability of venue, team and opposition. Dates of individual matches will be published in each year's calendar as they become available; we aim to have completed each year's calendar of matches early in the New Year, but changes and additions might be made later if circumstances change. The Team Selection Panel will contact prospective team members to confirm match dates and availability as part of the selection process.
