World Archery is governed by its member associations, which meet every two years at congress and have the ability to change the rulebook and constitution. The members also elect an executive and committees to guide the federation in between each congress.
The next World Archery Congress takes place on 1-2 June 2019 in ’s-Hertogenbosch, Netherlands.
