Archery Canada seeking to host 2025 World Youth Championships Sunday, 11 April 2021
Archery Canada has announced that Winnipeg is a candidate city to host the 2025 World Archery Youth Championships.
The governing body, working in partnership with Archery Manitoba and Tourism Winnipeg, estimates the event could have a CAD$5 million (£2.9 million/$4 million/€3.4 million) economic impact, bringing nearly 600 athletes from more than 60 countries to the city.
Winnipeg proposes staging the event in late August 2025, with qualification rounds and early elimination rounds at Red River Exhibition Park and medal matches at The Forks.
World Archery plans to announce which city has won the right to host the Championships by December 31 this year.
