Expressions of Interest

We are now calling for Expressions of Interest from interested Archers who meet the eligibility and selection criteria published in the 2022 World University Games – Nomination Criteria.

Please email your EOI for nomination to the UniRoos team to hppadmin@archeryaustralia.org  The EOI need only confirm that you are interested in being considered for nomination to the team and we will provide further details to those who submit an EOI.

The Archery Australia High Performance Committee, as appointed by the Board of Archery Australia will be the Nomination Committee. The Nomination Committee will nominate athletes to UniSport Australia for selection to the UniRoos team. UniSport Australia will determine which athlete are selected to the UniRoos team.

Note: there is still some uncertainty regarding travel to China in 2022 and there is no certainty that UniSport Australia will send a complete team to Chengdu, although this is the current intention.
