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;
