Archery World Cup 2010 – 1st Stage in Porec, Croatia

Tilman — Sun, 23 May 2010 09:20:44 +0000

ArcheryTV just uploaded a bunch of new videos on Youtube and so started the World Cup Season of 2010 online. The first stage took place in the beautiful city of Porec from 4th to 8th of May. As you are used to, there is a TV magazine produced by ArcheryTV and you are able to watch the most important matches in full length.
With the year 2010, there is quite a change in the rules of international competition: The old match system by 12 arrows has been replaced by a so called “Best out of Five” format. The competitiors are still shooting ends of three arrows each but now points are given after each end. Two points are given to the winning archer, one point each is given if the end is tied. If one competitor wins three ends in a row, the match is already over. If the score is tied after five ends, one arrow will be shot as tiebreak. The shoot-off rule has changed also because now, there is no second arrow beeing shot after a tie in the shoot-off. The first arrow counts, who is closer to the center, wins the match.
Additionally to the changes in the competition format, there is something technical: ArcherTV just started uploading some videos in 720p HDTV. The TV Magazine about the World Cup Stage in Croatia is already available in High Definition:

Sebastian Rohrberg (2009)

What name comes to your mind, if you think about German archers? It most certainly will be this one: Sebastian Rohrberg. The two times World Field Champion of 2006 and 2008 and World Indoor Champion of 2007 did it again! This time, it is a gold medal in the European Indoor Championships held in Porec, Croatia that he won just an hour ago. Even though he had already claimed gold three times in World Championships, it’s his first European title. In the gold final match he defeated Michele Frangilli (ITA) with an advantage of one point 117:116. Congratulations!

The other Individual European Indoor Champions are Natalia Valeeva (ITA), Sergio Pagni (ITA) and Anna Stanieczek (POL).

Indoor World Archery Challenge 2010

Tilman — Tue, 09 Mar 2010 11:30:58 +0000

The European Indoor Archery Tournament in Nîmes (France) and the NFAA World Archery Festival in Las Vegas (USA) are two big private tournaments with a high level of competing archers. 9252km is the shortest distance between the two cities Nîmes and Vegas. Travelling with the speed of sound still takes 7 1/2 hours going from one city to another and by that, you will fly over one quarter of the circumference of the earth. So what? Nîmes and Vegas just got together this year and became one tournament, the Indoor World Archery Challenge.

Dietmar Trillus (CAN) won the prestigious compound division in Las Vegas and cashed in 25,000$ (which is more than for winning the worldcup final). Though, the winner of the Archery Challenge 2010 was Braden Gellenthien (USA) who ranked 2nd and 4th in Nimes and Vegas. The other winners of the World Archer Challenge were Gladys Willems (Belgium, Women Compound), Brady Ellison (USA – Men Recurve) and Brandi Mantha (USA – Women Recurve).

And here they are: Pictures!

European Archery Tournament Nîmes 2010

Tilman — Thu, 25 Feb 2010 10:24:10 +0000

Now one month ago, the annual European Archery Tournament took place in Nîmes, France. As in the years before, the list of participating archers was again a who’s who of international archery. So, the big names you have heard so often in final match rounds were on screen again: Frangilli, Galiazzo, Schuh, Broadwater, Gellenthien and many more. The US Compound boys dominated the competition and made clear who is the number one country in the compound division as Jesse Broadwater wins in the final round against his teammate Braden Gellenthien.

The Frensh recurve archer Bérengère Schuh showed a great performance by scroing a perfect 120 points in the gold final match versus Tatiana Segina from Russia and Marco Galiazzo lost the final match by his last arrow, when he scored a nine after a perfect 90 points and a tied score after 11 arrows versus Michele Frangilli. This really have been some thrilling matches this year. If you like towatch them again, they are now set online by archertv:
