Welsh national records are maintained for all Field and Clout rounds recognised by ArcheryGB. The current Welsh Field records can be browsed via the 'Information' tab at the top of this page. The Welsh Clout records are currently included with the Target records.
The Target and Field records on the WAA website may be filtered by round name or by age category. If the record for the round and age category you are looking for is not there, either that age category is ineligible to shoot the round or the record is currently unclaimed.
Welsh records are recognised in the following age categories: Under 12, Under 14, Under 16, Under 18, Senior and 50+. For all the Senior rounds there are potentially records for every age category, whereas for Junior pegs and shorter clout distances records are only recognised in age categories up to the age restriction for the round.
Archers' ages and eligibilities must be calculated in accordance with the current ArcheryGB Rules.
An archer may claim records in multiple age categories simultaneously: for example, a Junior archer Under 16 could also claim the corresponding Under 18 and Senior records. Similarly, a 50+ archer could also claim the Senior record.
To claim a Welsh national record, an archer must be affiliated to the Welsh Archery Association through an Associated Club. Rounds must be shot at an Open Record Status competition under World Archery or ArcheryGB Rules. A Record Claim Form is available to download at the foot of this page.
Completed claim forms should be emailed to the Field Records Officer within 28 days of the tournament, together with a copy of the official final results of the competition. A certificate will be issued to the archer for each record ratified.
Certificates will be issued by email in pdf format.
A new Field Records Officer will be in post shortly - contact details will be updated here.
