In July 2025 AGB ratified the Metric AGB900 series of rounds. These are:

• AGB900/70
• WA900 (60m)
• AGB900/50
• AGB900/40
• AGB900/30

Note: there is no AGB900/60 - this is still known as the WA900

These rounds are metric, 2.5 dozen shot at 3 distances (e.g. 70/60/50). Total 90 arows, max score 900.

This event is for ArcheryGB archers only.

Awards etc.

There aren't any. The whole point of this tournament is to bag National Records - being a new round you stand a good chance of so doing. Archers will not be expected to shoot a specific round based on age etc. - just choose the round you think you have the best chance and go for it.
