How is the

Round Robin seeded

and how is it

going to run?

 

For the Round Robin, there will be three or four flights of 8 archers each based on the qualifying rank points. To be determined

3 flights x 8 archers = up to 32 archers total (goal to run all matches simultaneously for all flights.)

  • An Iron Archer winner from each flight will be determined by point totals. Points will be earned based on qualification seeding and match points.  Match points will be loosely based on the new FITA "Set Points" system. More info to be posted.

  • All archers regardless of age, gender or bow type will be seeded based on their best two qualifying scores. 

  • The top scorers will be in one flight, the middle  scorers in the second flight and the lower  scorers in the third flight.  This approach should keep the match play competitive since similar shooters will be matched.  We may add another flight if needed.

  • Remember that compound will be shooting the inner ten and recurve the outer ten, regardless of their opponent's bow type.

  • Round Robin match play will be shot on the 3 vertical spot target so there is no top or bottom advantage.
