Indoor Archery World Series

Indoor Archery World Series
Start dateOctober
End dateMarch

The Indoor Archery World Series is an annual indoor archery circuit founded by the World Archery as a replacement competition for the World Indoor Archery Championships. The winners of the various categories are awarded cash prizes, while the overall circuit winner is recognized at the season-ending Finals. Over the years, further subgroups of the two main bow types that characterized the competitions have been added. The calendar includes seven stages held across Europe, Asia, South America, and North America. These events can be worth 250 or 1,000 points for the stage winner, establishing a points ranking that will determine the overall winner, as the Finals was eliminated in 2026. [1][2][3][4]
