The ARCHERY: GT Open INDOOR WORLD SERIES 2025/26 is a significant event within the World Archery Indoor World Series. It is one of seven tournaments making up the 2026 Indoor Archery World Series, presented by YOUYI.
Here’s a breakdown:
- Part of a Larger Series: The GT Open is a stage within the broader Indoor Archery World Series. This series features multiple open-entry tournaments held globally, attracting both elite and recreational archers.
- Location and Dates: The GT Open is scheduled to take place in Strassen, Luxembourg, from November 14-16, 2025.
- Competition Format: Archers will shoot a 2x18m qualification round, followed by an elimination round for the top 32 qualified archers in each category. There’s also a “Second Chance” competition for those not qualifying for elimination matches.
- Prize Money: The GT Open offers substantial prize money, with 1,500 Euros for each winner in their category and over 17,000 Euros in total.
- Points for Ranking: The GT Open is a 250-point tournament, meaning participants earn points towards their elite ranking in the Indoor Archery World Series. An archer’s top three points finishes across all events in the series count towards their elite ranking.
- No Finals in 2026: Unlike previous years, the 2026 Indoor Archery World Series will not conclude with a separate “Finals” event. Instead, prize money for the championship categories will be allocated based on the elite and youth rankings after the last event in Las Vegas (The Vegas Shoot).
- Categories: The series is open to Recurve Men, Recurve Women, Compound Men, and Compound Women categories.
In essence, the GT Open is a crucial stop on the international indoor archery circuit, offering archers a chance to compete for prizes, earn ranking points, and test their skills against top competitors.
