Archery Ontario is focused on generating interest and further developing Archery in our province. Our goal is to provide opportunities for our archers to be active, stay active and reach their greatest heights of sport achievement. This goal has been greatly impacted by the ongoing Pandemic, but we as a PSO are doing our best to keep the sport of archery alive in our province.

Inspired by World Archery’s “Beat the Outbreak” competition and Archery Canada’s “Virtual ASA Event”, we have put together a fun virtual indoor event, to provide our archers with weekly challenges to motivate them to get their bows out and shooting again.

Any member of Archery Ontario is invited to participate and share their scores and target image results on the Archery Ontario Facebook page. In addition to this, archers can submit their scores via the google form posted each week. The results will be updated at the end of each week’s challenge to promote some friendly competition and comradery.

Participants that are Archery Ontario members will be eligible for prize draws throughout the virtual tournament series. If archers participate over all 10 weeks, their names will be automatically entered for a Grand Prize Draw.

Participating archers may shoot the specific weekly target as many times as they choose throughout the week to practice or improve on their score, but please be honest and only officially submit your first rounds score to the google form.

Archery Ontario Virtual Showdown!

This live virtual event will encompass all categories as a whole. There will not be separate divisions and it will be shot from 5-7 yards. (Taking into consideration of course of space and individual situations). The target face and distance will be determined based on each pair’s situation.

  1. For those who participate consistently for weeks 1-5 will be paired up based on scores to this point. ((If they choose to participate)). We will run a live virtual mini competition between the pairs through zoom!
  2. For those who participate consistently for weeks 5-10 will be paired up based on scores to this point. ((If they choose to participate)). We will run a live virtual mini competition between the pairs through zoom!
  3. At the very end, we will take the top scores and run a virtual showdown, via zoom, to figure out 1st, 2nd and 3rd, collectively, encompassing all categories as a whole.
