The FITA round refers to a classic target archery competition distance, named after the former world federation FITA (now World Archery). A traditional FITA round (outdoor, men’s recurve) includes distances of 90 m, 70 m, 50 m, and 30 m, with 36 arrows per distance, totaling 144 arrows. For women, slightly adjusted distances were used in the past.

Today, the classic FITA round is mostly referred to as the WA round, reflecting the federation’s renaming to World Archery.
