FITA Round

The FITA round refers to a classic target archery competition format named after the former governing body of World Archery.

The traditional FITA round for outdoor men’s recurve competition consisted of the following distances:

• 90 m
• 70 m
• 50 m
• 30 m

At each distance, 36 arrows were shot, for a total of 144 arrows.

For women, slightly shorter distances were traditionally used.

Today, the classic FITA round is usually referred to as a WA round, since World Archery was renamed from FITA.
