Rules of Play

In any sport, rules can give you a frame of reference, provide fairness for all competitors, and help make sure everyone is able to have a good time. Within the sport of archery you will find some basic guidelines common to all archers. Different types of archery have special rules to help an archer know what to do in every situation.

If you want to compete, you should make sure you are up-to-date on the most current regulations, because rules may change over time to stay relevant for all competitors. At the time we are writing in 2011, we have tried to include the most recent information and advice for what an archer should keep in mind when headed to a tournament.
