  • World Archery Americas Abril 2020.Pdf
    Confederación Panamericana de Tiro con Arco Boletín Mensual / Monthly Bulletin Abril 2020 / April 2020 ________________________________ Abril nos ha mantenido a casi todos en cuarentena, pero no inactivos. Trabajando desde las casas hemos desarrollado muchas tareas de planificación, coordinación y evaluación. Se han tomado importantes decisiones en los últimos días con relación a próximos eventos: nuevas fechas para los Campeonatos Panamericano y Parapan Americano, el otorgamiento de la sede para el Campeonato Panamericano del 2022, así como el incremento en las cifras del arco compuesto para Santiago 2023. Hemos sostenido reuniones en-línea con los comités organizadores de los Juegos Panamericanos de 2023, los Panamericanos Junior del 2021, y los Suramericanos del 2022, para asegurarnos de que los torneos de tiro con arco en estos juegos cumplan con todos los requisitos para eventos internacionales de alto nivel. World Archery Americas goza de prestigio como una organización seria, organizada y respetable. A partir de este reconocimiento, Pan Am Sports analizó y aprobó nuestra propuesta de aumentar el número de plazas para el arco compuesto en Santiago 2023. Sabemos que las nuevas cifras no son aún suficientes, pero este es un proceso largo, y seguiremos trabajando para los Juegos del 2027. Nos complace conocer que nuestros arqueros a lo largo del continente se mantienen activos con ajustes en sus rutinas de entrenamiento para continuar con su preparación para los eventos futuros. Sabemos que esto es el resultado de la rigurosa disciplina de los atletas y de la planificación y control de las federaciones nacionales. Nuestras felicitaciones para todos los arqueros, entrenadores, jueces y dirigentes de las federaciones nacionales que no han permitido que la desfavorable situación internacional les ponga freno.
