The Oceania Challenge is an online tournament to engage our Member Associations in
competitive shooting.

The competition will be shot on individual club grounds. Each host club chooses one or more suitable dates during the months of April/May
2025. Participants may compete more than once but only one result per person may
be submitted (no multiple entries with different bow types or in different age groups).

For all rounds archers will shoot 5 ends of 6 arrows at each of the three
distances on a 122cm face. Each end takes 4 minutes = 40 seconds per arrow.
Short Round (for people shooting Recurve, Compound or Barebow who have been in
archery for 12 months or less or have never shot further than 40m):
30 arrows shot from each of the 40m, 30m, 20m distances on a 122cm target
face.
Barebow & Longbow Rounds:
30 arrows shot from each of the 50m, 40m, 30m distances on a 122cm target
face.
Long Round (for everybody else shooting Recurve and Compound):
30 arrows shot from each of the 60m, 50m, 40m distances on a 122cm target
face.
