All archers who wish to be considered for the county squad in 2020 must e-mail secretary@bucksarcheryassociation.org.uk stating their full name, club, AGB number and bow type. If you wish to be considered for more than one bow type, please state both. Applications may be made throughout the year provided the above criteria are met.

Criteria for Team Selection:

All events will be advertised in advance to the members of the county squad. If there are more archers wishing to shoot than there are places available, then the team will be selected on the basis of those who have submitted the highest scores.

Scores for any qualifying round (as per the county squad criteria above) should be e-mailed to secretary@bucksarcheryassociation.org.uk. I will maintain a league table and use this to select the team when required.

Awards:

Archers who represent the county at a recognised event (e.g. National County Team Competition, Inter-County Matches) will receive a county shirt (to be worn when shooting for the county; a certificate for each event at which they represent the county; and a county badge.
