Most competitive sports have officials, Football has its `Referees', Cricket has its `Umpires' and for Archery its Judges. These Judges are usually recruited from experienced members of local clubs who volunteer to become judges and help out at competitions.
There are five main levels or grades of Judges:
- Candidate judge
- County judge
- Regional judge
- National judge
- International judge
Archery GB requires that all tournaments must be under the control of a Judge of the appropriate minimum standard:
- World Record Status Competitions - National level judge
- UK Record Status Competitions - Regional level judge
- Non-Record Status County Tournaments - County level judge
- Non-Record Status Club open Tournaments - County level judge.
At a Tournament, the Judge-in-charge will be assisted by other Judges of any level of qualification and may include a reasonable proportion of candidate judges. Judges are not expected to control tournaments of a higher level than indicated above, they are encouraged to work at tournaments of higher levels, assisting colleagues having the appropriate qualifications.
At present we have 3 Archery Judges in Wales:
