Handicap updates

Several archers decreased their handicap, and for some we now have three tournament scores for the current year, allowing us to specify a classification; others are still provisional. The Indoor ‘year’ is from 1st July to 30th June. As this is the first tournament of this ‘year’, handicaps can be adjusted up as well as down. Some are unchanged.

* means not enough scores to confirm. Several archers have shot at a higher level than given above at least once, but this is the highest consistent level.

Spring 2025 Handicap Tournament

Our second tournament of the year had fewer participants than normal due to Spring holidays. As before, this is a handicap tournament, which rewards those that do better than usual (for them) on the tournament day, rather than purely the highest scores. The idea is that continuing to do this results in the end with higher scores, but people are not discouraged on the journey.
