Senior Team

Senior County Team

Archers wishing to be considered for selection in next years competition should send scores for any twelve dozen rounds shot at tournaments to the senior team selector and include the official result sheet(s). Team selection takes place towards the end of August to allow as many scores as possible to be taken in to consideration and also for the selector to take into account which archers are currently on form.

Nominated Selection Shoots.

There are currently five nominated shoots for which the team selector will automatically check the results, these being;

Burnham May Open Shoot - York/Hereford (Burnham)
Somerset Senior Championships - York/Hereford (Dunster)
Combined with Somerset Junior Championships - York/Hereford (Wraxall)
GWAS Senior Championships - York/Hereford, Both days (Dunster)
Tockington - York/Hereford

Over the past few years SCAA have struggled to field a full team which puts us at an immediate disadvantage to the other counties taking part. So please get out there, shoot as many tournaments as you can and get your scores in to the Senior Team Selector. And who knows, you could be representing your county in September.
