The Basics
The 252 Award scheme is designed to encourage archers to improve their accuracy and increase the ranges being shot at, with badges for qualifying scores at distances from 20 yards up to 100 yards.
After 6 sighters, you shoot 3 dozen arrows on a 122cm face at your chosen distance. The round can be shot at (10 Under 18 only), 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 80 or 100 yds with the objective of scoring 252 or better (alternative scores apply for other bow types). If you achieve the score twice you can claim a badge. Download and print a 252 score sheet. Alternatively you can score your 252 round on a mobile app.
