The official press release and the preliminary program of the 20th World Crossbow Championship: “Match” and “Field” divisions are available on the following link.

International Crossbow-Shooting Union (IAU) and Crossbow-Shooting Federation of Russia (CSFR) invite you to become a media partner of the 20th World Crossbow Championship in “Match” and “Field” divisions, which is to be held on August 12-19, 2019 in Ulyanovsk (Russia).

The 20th World Crossbow Championship 2019 is expanding its geography and a number of athletes, promising to become record-breaking! The World Crossbow Championship in Ulyanovsk 2019 is going to assemble about 350 athletes from 35 countries all over the world, instead of 200 crossbow-shooters, being applied for the competitions earlier.

The organizers of the World Crossbow Championship have visited Ulyanovsk, the city that is hosting the main championship of the year this August. One of the main agenda items was a meeting of the Organizing Committee, where a number of important issues on the preparation and hosting of the World Crossbow Championship 2019 were discussed.

On August 24, 2018 one more sports organization was established. The date is very important to us as it was the day when the National Crossbow Shooting Federation of Latvia, that has recently joined IAU, was founded. Oleg Dorofejev, the President of the youngest National Federation told us about the history of its creation, its current state, future plans and perspectives.
