I imagine it'd be like the football... behind closed doors with no spectators allowed...Wouldn't make any difference to me. If gatherings are prohibited I'd expect a reschedule or refund.
And on surfaces like handrails, door handles, cash, etc...I'll participate in the 55+ BC Games in Richmond, BC, September 2020. The Covid19 virus is spread by droplets from a cough or sneeze. Avoid those, and the virus will have a hard time claiming you.
Use a puller and that's not a problem... and considering the advice is to stay 1m away from people, it's more likely you'll catch something standing on the shooting line, or when you greet the Lady P when you collect a medal.As in our sport we cannot avoid hand/face contact it may be wise to pull our own arrows, other than that I see no real need to change what we do.
When pulling an arrow, you tend to pull with one hand and gather with the other hand, so using a puller will not stop the contact.Use a puller and that's not a problem... and considering the advice is to stay 1m away from people, it's more likely you'll catch something standing on the shooting line, or when you greet the Lady P when you collect a medal.
No, I'm notWith all what is going on at the moment are you still booking in to tournaments.
Wish I was... it was a fab shoot last yearI don't do a lot of competitions, but I fully intend booking into the Argyll Field Archery Open in a month's time.
Except for pulling and collecting arrows, and the constant face contact at anchor may be an issue I would want to consider. However, my guess will be availability of judges, whom, in my experience, tend to be towards the at risk age groups, but this may be an inaccurate assupmtion generally.But outdoor archery tournaments are very low-risk environments for transmission. The combination of fresh air, little physical contact and a reasonable separation makes virus transmission unlikely.
