ARCHERY SPORT

Archery

Archery is for everyone, women, men, youths and juniors, no matter what your body shape or level of fitness. It's an ideal family sport you can all enjoy.

Target Archery

Target Archery using Recurve bows is an Olympic Sport. Compound bows are also used in Target Archery and Cyprus sends teams to compete in European and World Championship Events in both disciplines.

 

Target Archery is a demanding and very satisfying discipline. You shoot in the open at a static target face from a specified distance - which may vary from 30 to 90 metres, and rounds take between two to six hours. Indoor you shoot at a static target with 3 faces from a distance of 18 meters.  Most clubs allow children to start from the age of 8 or 10.

Field Archery & 3D Archery

Originally developed for hunters as a way to practice, Field Archery has developed into the most popular form of archery today, with clubs throughout Cyprus.

 

A Field Archery course is situated in a bush setting and contains target faces (yellow with black), 3-D or printed animal targets all set at different unknown distances (5 to 50 meters).

 

Part of the skill is learning to judge distance accurately. Very much like golf, a group of four archers' collects a score at each target and will complete a round in about 2-3 hours. Field Archery is a sport you can enjoy all year round in Cyprus. We can put you in touch with your nearest tournaments.
