FITA Information and More

The USA College Archery Program (CAP) World Championship and CAP World Teams have traveled all over the world in recent years, including Korea, Turkey, Slovakia and Venezuela.

The FITA World Cup site has posted an article about the 7th WUAC to be held in Chinese Taipei in 2008.

A temporary website for the tournament has been set up by the event’s Organizing Committee. This website provides downloads of entry forms, regulations, and event info.

Helpful Hints

Getting a passport is taking longer and longer (sometimes up to 3 months!) Apply for your (and your family’s too!) passports now at the U.S. State Department’s Travel and Business website.

Many countries require that passports be valid for at least six months from the date of entry. Make sure your passport is valid at least through January 2009 at the minimum (it would be better to have a year or more of time left) to meet that requirement. The WUAC is less than 7 months away.

Find out about overseas travel in general, and about Chinese Taipei (known by the U.S. State Department as Taiwan). The U.S. State Department’s Travel web pages are helpful. These pages include a link to the CDC for vaccination information.

USA Archery World Team trips are a great experience and become wonderful memories.
