How To Score 2022

How to score
TARGET – INDOOR – CLOUT
Introduction
This document relates to the use of Archery Australia’s official scorecards which are the only
scorecards that should be used for any tournament shot in Australia.
In Australia all Archery Australia Registered Tournaments and QREs must use “Double
Scoring”. That can be either one scorecard and one electronic scoring device or two
scorecards.
If two scorecards are being used the score must be entered “Arrow by Arrow” into Archers
Diary before the score will be considered official.
1) Archers Details
The Archers Details (Fig.1) section must be fully completed correctly or the scorecard can be
rejected. Areas to be complete are -
1. NAME – Archer’s First and Family name.
a. Never use initials, first names only or nick names. Always use the archer’s
full name (Given and Family Names)
2. Membership No. – Write your AA Membership Number.
In major competitions archers also will be provided with a “Competitor Number”
which must be worn on the quiver.
a. This is usually used for tournaments to allow the organisers to quickly
identify the competitors when entering scores.
3. RGB/CLUB – Write the name of your RGB and Club whichever is appropriate for
the event.
4. DATE – Write current date
5. ROUND – Indicate the round being shot
6. TARGET No. – Write the Target No.
a. This is usually used for tournaments to allow the organisers to quickly
identify an archer’s target and locate them if there is a problem with the
scorecard.

Organisers may use printed labels containing this information. If this is done there is no need
to complete this information as the label will be stuck over this section.
2. Scoring Area
This area is used to record the values of each arrow, and the adding up of each end score and
the progressive total.
FIRST END
To score, the archer (or designated scorer) calls out the value of the arrows in descending
order of score for each arrow for that end, such as X, 10, 9, 8, 8 and 6.
These scores are then written by the scorer onto the scorecard (Fig. 2) in the area provided,
in descending order.

The score total for that end (6 or 3 Arrow Score) is then added up (i.e. 51) and written in the
area provided.
SECOND AND SUBSQUENT ENDS

After the second end and each progressive end for a distance/bracket, the progressive total
must be completed (Fig. 3). To do this after the second end the 1st and 2nd end scores are
added together to give a progressive score.

After each subsequent end, the end score is added to the progressive score until the end of
the distance/bracket.
1. At the end of the distance, usually the 5th or 6th end (depending upon the round being
shot) the score for the distance is then placed into the Distance Total area.
2. Also, the 10 and X count and X count are added up and placed in the area provided.

Finally move the total score down to the total box at the bottom of the sheet. Also include
10s and Xs and Xs.

TOTALS
NOTE – The Xs must be indicated on the scorecard with an X. When counting up the 10s and
Xs remember this refers to all arrows in the 10 ring and includes both Xs and 10s.
3. Signatures
All scorecards must be signed by the archer and a scorer prior to being submitted (Fig. 6)
The archer signs to confirm that they agree with the score and all details.
The scorecard is then witnessed by another archer, usually the scorer.
If the archer and scorer are the same person then another archer on the target should sign
the scorecard as the witness.
If there are only two archers allocated to the target, either ask another archer from an
adjoining target either to score or witness scoring. Alternatively call a judge.

Record
Ensure you have totalled the scores and added up all 10s and Xs and Xs and that this is clearly
written in the area provided.
If any area is not fully, correctly and clearly completed, the organisers can reject a scorecard.
If using electronic scoring the written scorecard MUST match the electronic results or the
scorecard can be rejected.

The written scorecard is the official score and will take precedence over the electronic results
until both are checked by the organisers when the electronic results are declared official.
5. Score Alterations
NEVER remove or touch any arrows in the target until all arrows have been scored and all
archers on the target agree with the arrow values.
If there is an error in the writing down of “Arrow Values” on the scorecard, these errors must
never be changed by the scorer or archer (Fig. 7).
If an error is found in the entry of “Arrow Values”, bring the error to the attention of a Judge
who will confirm that an error has been made by checking the arrows in the target. The Judge
will make the necessary corrections (in RED) and sign (in RED) to confirm the change.
In local club shoots bring the error to the attention of the DOS (Field Captain) or club official.
If arrows have been removed from the target butt or touched and an error is found, it
cannot be corrected. The lowest score value of the arrow will stand.
