2006 Archery World Cup
international archery competition
The 2006 Archery World Cup was the first edition of the international archery circuit, designed to highlight archery in some of the world's "most spectacular" locations following the success of the 2003 World Championships in New York City and the 2004 Summer Olympics. The best individual and mixed performers in each discipline over the three legs then joined host representatives in qualifying for the finals.
Competition rules and scoring
The compound legs consisted of a 50m qualification round of 72 arrows, followed by the compound round at 50m on a 6-zone target face, using cumulative scoring for all individual, team and mixed competitions. The top four individual performers (with no more than two from each country) proceeded to the finals.
The recurve legs consisted of a FITA qualification round, followed by a 72m Olympic set system . The top seven individual performers (with no more than two from each country), plus one host nation representative if not already qualified, proceeded to the finals; the top mixed team performer proceeded to face the host nation at the finals, which were the same competition format as the legs. The team competition was not competed at the finals.
Competitors' top three scores go towards qualification. The scores awarded in the legs were as follows:

This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “2006 Archery World Cup” as international archery competition. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.
Why this record matters
The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as international archery competition. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
Vocabulary and entity names are the principal evidence signals here, because they determine the precision of every later search. The source revision retrieved here is dated Apr 25, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q2741325. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2006, 2003 and 2004.
The absence of detail may reflect summary conventions rather than a lack of surviving documentation. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
