ECBOPAA SUMMER POSTAL SHOOT

This six-month postal shoot runs in conjunction with the NZ Archery Inter Club Postal Shoot, but is an individual shoot, not a team shoot. Individual scores are to be submitted for this shoot. To be shot in a minor tournament situation (club shoot with independent witness is fine).

CRITERIA

Criteria for ECBOPAA archers is that all rounds must be shot within any ECBOPAA club grounds. Non-ECBOPAA archers may shoot at any archery club grounds.

An invitation to the shoot is extended to non-ECBOPAA clubs. Non-ECBOPAA participants will be eligible for awards for 1st, 2nd and 3rd OVERALL placings in each division.

Clubs may shoot as many times as desired within the designated month/s of the shoot and the highest score from each individual archer participating is to be submitted as per below.

Scores will be recorded each day of shooting on a recording sheet (available from the Shoot Co-ordinator) held at each club range where the independent witness/es will record the score. At the end of each month, the recording sheet will be obtained by the club contact, who will then verify the highest scores for each of their archers from the recording sheet.
