Gualeguaychú is set to return to the national archery calendar by hosting an official Outdoor 70/70 and 50/50 Ranking Tournament on Sunday, September 27, at the Tiro con Arco Gualeguaychú club facilities.
Organized by the host club, the tournament operates under the official sanction and oversight of the Federación Argentina de Tiro con Arco (FATARCO) and the Federación Entrerriana de Tiro con Arco (FETARCO). This dual governing body supervision ensures strict adherence to competition regulations, precise technical control on the field, and official score homologation. For participating athletes, the event serves as a crucial milestone: winners across the various categories will secure direct qualification to the upcoming National Final.
Tournament Schedule and Technical Standards
Competition activities will kick off at 9:00 a.m. local time on Sunday, September 27. Archers will cycle through open-air qualification rounds, series, and distance measurements tailored specifically to federated standards across the 70/70 and 50/50 divisions. The schedule culminates with an awards ceremony slated for 4:00 p.m., where final standings will be locked in and qualifiers for the national stage announced.
Local athletes from Entre Ríos face a demanding competitive test as they measure their current performance against elite visiting shooters from across the country. For out-of-province delegations and members of the national squad, the tournament provides valuable official match practice under strict technical supervision. FATARCO and FETARCO officials will manage track rules, oversee shooting rotations, and validate score sheets to guarantee fair play.
Venue Information and Spectator Access
The tournament takes place at the Tiro con Arco Gualeguaychú grounds, situated on Acceso Sur General Artigas, between Florida and Calle Pública 5583. Organizers have confirmed that admission for the public is entirely free of charge, with a food and beverage canteen operating on-site throughout the day to accommodate spectators.
Local logistics teams have prepared the venue with internal signage, structured shooting turns, and dedicated delegation reception areas to maintain a smooth schedule. Beyond serving competitive needs, the event aims to draw local sports fans closer to archery, highlighting the discipline’s top regional and national competitors in an accessible outdoor environment.
