Method of Selection of archers to represent
Archery Ireland at International Competitions
The selection method will be used to provide individuals or teams for all events where a selection of ‘Ireland’ is involved.
Rules Governing Selection:
General:
- When the individual or team selection is being considered, only members scores, countersigned and forwarded by Affiliated Club, Hon. Secretary or Treasurer, to Archery Ireland Records Officer will be considered eligible. Only members resident in Ireland or an Irish citizen can qualify to compete for Ireland.
- When the individual or team selection is being considered, no member shall be considered eligible if annual subscriptions are unpaid or in arrears, on the date of selection.
- In the event of there being a greater number of archers qualified, the archers who have the highest aggregate scores will be selected.
- In the event of the highest placed archer not being available, the next highest qualified archer will be selected.
- If, for any reason, no archer in either the Ladies or Gentleman’s division reaches the required aggregate then no archer may be chosen.
- To complete a Team the Technical Committee may, with the advice of the National Coach in the interest of promoting Archery in Ireland, select one additional archer who has not achieved the required score. Selection is to be based on nearest aggregate score to that required for automatic selection. This will also depend on funds available.
- Funding available for competitions will be decided by the Executive on a case by case basis.
- The period for shooting qualification scores will be 12 months prior to the cut off date for final entries to the event. However all scores must be shot and submitted no less than 7 days before the final cut off date for Final entries to the competition.
- Aggregate scores will be accepted (For example if you need 2 by 1300 and you have scored 1 x 1292 and 1 x 1312, you aggregate score of 1302 will be accepted)
- All scores must be shot at a world archery status competition. The competition must be registered as a star or arrowhead event.
