2006 FITA Archery World Cup


The 2006 Archery World Cup was the first edition of the Archery World Cup, designed to highlight archery in some of the world's "most spectacular" locations following the success of the 2003 World Archery Championships in New York City and the 2004 Summer Olympics. The first leg was held in Porec, Croatia, the second leg on at Antalya Centennial Archery Field in Antalya, Turkey, the third leg on in San Salvador, El Salvador and the final leg was held in Shanghai.

The best individual and mixed performers in each discipline over the three legs then joined host representatives in qualifying for the World Cup Finals, which were contested on in Mérida, Mexico.

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 an 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.
