555 Extreme Archery Tournaments

Extreme Archery by Archery Tag^® is a unique, fast-paced team sport where players compete for points by shooting Archery Tag^® foam tipped arrows at the opposing team. Points are awarded by “striking” (tagging) your opponent or “catching” your opponent’s arrow. Players stay in the field of play even if they are hit.

Extreme Archery combines elements of dodgeball, or other combat-type games, with the timeless skills of archery. Players take aim at each other with Archery Tag® non-lethal arrows to score points against opposing players scoring 1 point for a hit and 3 points for a catch.

The 555 format is simple; 5 players vs 5 players for 5 minutes: 555.
