BUCS Indoors cancelled [04/Feb/21]

BUCS Indoors 2021 has been cancelled. BUCS made the announcement on the main archery page of their website. The Regional Qualifiers (scheduled in February) had already been scrapped. The National Finals would have taken place over the weekend of the 13th and 14th of March.

This will be the first time that BUCS Indoors has not taken place and whilst it's a disappointing outcome, it's not a wholly unexpected one.

At time of writing, BUTC 2021 is going ahead. A hosting announcement is being delayed until a new date after Easter can be secured, most likely the first weekend in May. This announcement is expected imminently.

As for the E-League, the adjusted period for Round 2 has just finished. If you managed to squeeze in a Portsmouth any time between 15th November (last year) and 31st January (last Sunday), please submit it to the E-League website by 7th February. How the E-League's schedule develops for the rest of the year is also dependent on participation levels. Currently February and March rounds are scheduled to take place as "normal".

A year ago, on 14th March, BUCS Indoors 2020 was more or less the last event to get in under the wire, before the first lockdown. Warwick were the hosts as their men's team and Birmingham's women were victorious. William Pike (Warwick) and Eleanor Piper (Birmingham) won the individual recurve titles.

UKSAA has records for BUCS (and its predecessors') championships back as far as 1980, see the BUCS Indoor Archive Summary. Full competition results exist back as far as 1996. Team results for 1991, 1989 and 1985 are missing.
