Archery Planning Diary - Regular Events
The following entries show events that normally follow a simple rule as to timing.
However, please bear in mind when planning your competition calendar,
that these dates can only be considered provisional and are subject to confirmation by the individual tournament organiser or host club.
This is especially true for March and April dates - because the date of Easter varies from year to year,
events that would fall on Easter weekend are likely to be rescheduled.
Important Note: Tournaments advertised on this web site are normally only available to current members of
GNAS or another national archery association affiliated to World Archery.
Some longbow tournaments might also be open to BLBS members.
Tournament Organisers are entitled to place additional restrictions on entries,
so it is important to check any terms and conditions on the individual tournament entry form.

Dates of individual matches will be published in that year's calendar as they become available.
The Team Selection Panel will contact prospective team members to confirm match dates and availability as part of the
selection process.
