World Archery Asia releases continental event schedule for 2023

World Archery Asia has released a preliminary calendar of continental events for 2023. 

The tentative schedule respects the international blocks announced by World Archery for the 2021-2024 seasons and includes an Asian Championships, three Asia Cup legs and the rescheduled Asian Games.

Hangzhou was initially scheduled to host the Asian and Para Asian Games in 2022 but the multisport events were delayed, along with the World University Games, due to ongoing pandemic measures in China.

The Asian Games and Asian Championships will act as continental qualifiers for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. The qualifying period starts with the 2023 Hyundai World Archery Championships in Berlin next summer.

World Archery Asia is also expected to host its congress during the championships in Thailand.
