Welcome to the Oceania Challenge 2026.

The Oceania Challenge Competition is coming up in April/May. This is a 'postal' shoot, where we shoot the round at our home club (Illawarra Archers) and then the recorder submits our scores to the WA people.

Please read the guidelines for all information.

Rounds:

The standard round is a Canberra round. We have 2 Canberra rounds in our club competitions in each of April and May.

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.
