The Canadian Regional Indoor Championships Rules and Competition information is contained at Rule 4.1 and Appendix AC 3.4 (AC Championship Regulations Appendix) found in the Archery Canada Rule Book.

Regional Indoor Sites are NOT automatically registered with World Archery for World Records, if desired, the tournament organizer must register their site with Archery Canada.

The Host Club must register the Canadian Regional Indoor Regional Tournament with Archery Canada as a tournament registered for Canadian Records (Reg AC). As with regular tournament registrations, Regional Indoor sites will be subject to the Archery Canada registration fee. The Host Club may also register the tournament for World Records (Reg WA/AC) for an additional fee. In the dropdown menu select ‘National Championship’.

While it is hoped to use ianseo for the Regional Indoor at some point, we are not there yet, so Regional Indoor Coordinators will have to enter the results to both the Regional sheet and the ianseo program. Competitors will not be listed in the Archery Canada ranking system if they are not listed again in the Archery Canada Ianseo scoring program.

When completing the registration form the Host Club must ensure that in the Name field the first word of the name of the tournament is Regional Indoor Site, e.g. Regional Indoor Site Victoria Bowmen 18M. There is also a check box for the Regional Indoors

This is a National Competition, therefore medals will be awarded to the top 3 archers in each respective category.

As this is being hosted at various clubs, nationwide, the following will be enforced to resolve any ties:

• If there is a tie for first place, 2 (or as many as are tied) gold medals will be awarded and a bronze (if there are more than 3 tied, there will not be a bronze.
• If there is a tie for second place, Gold, 2 (or as many as are tied) silver medals will be awarded and no bronze;
• If there is a tie for 3rd place, Gold, Silver and 2 (or as many as are tied) bronze medals will be awarded

Once scores are finalized, Archery Canada will coordinate distribution of medals, to be sent to the host site coordinator, around the first week of April.
