Since 2008 when the WAA inter-county tournament was devised, and Glamorgan came a magnificent 2nd place, the county team has done extremely well every year. Glamorgan has won the trophy 10 times (more than any other county), and never came lower than 2nd every other time

More COUNTY TEAM NEWS:-
The Glamorgan County Team have also competed at the Inaugural Welsh & West County Team H2H Shoot hosted by Gloucestershire Archery Association.
Everyone had a fun day, even though the weather was surprisingly cold considering it was mid summer. In the end, Glamorgan Barebows came out on top (well nearly).
After both coming top of the qualifying round Mike Woodfield (Castle Bowmen) & Claire Edwards (RJD Archers) came away with the Silver medal and Becca Callan (Castle Bowmen) with Simon Browning (Perriswood) taking the Bronze.

2008 - The 1st Glamorgan Inter-County Team
Glamorgan County Champion : If you are affiliated to Glamorgan Archery Association, i.e. you have paid the GAA affiliation fee, at the time of the County Championships, the title can be claimed.
Glamorgan County Records : If you are affiliated to Glamorgan Archery Association, i.e. you have paid the GAA affiliation fee, at the time the round you are claiming for is shot, records can be claimed for that round.
Glamorgan County Champion : If you are affiliated to Glamorgan Archery Association, i.e. you have paid the GAA affiliation fee, at the time of the team event, you can be in the county team (providing you meet team selection criteria).
Team Selection General Criteria : All Glamorgan Archery Association members will be invited to submit scores to be in the county team. The archers with highest average handicap scores from each category will be chosen for the team.
In the event of insufficient entries for the team the committee reserve the right to choose any other archers they feel would be a good addition to the team.
Specific criteria may change from event to event (e.g. Welsh team members aren't allowed to compete in the WAA Intercounties shoot).
(**ArcheryGB do not currently permit multi-county affiliations **
If they do change this rule in the future the committee will discuss the possibility of only allowing single county (Glamorgan) affiliated archers to be eligible for Glamorgan County records / champion / team .)
