The number of tournaments in the schemes has now risen to 40, with 13 out of the 14 SCAS County Associations hosting shoots (see the venue map below). SCAYT aims to encourage junior archers to participate in the shoots being organised around the SCAS region, meet their fellow junior archers, and provides an accessible step toward competition. SCAYT consists of more than 20 events taking place around the region over the outdoor archery season. The tour finale is the Southern Counties Junior Outdoor Championship in late September. The number of events is to encourage access, with a spread of timings and shoot locations around the large SCAS region. There is no suggestion that archers should aim to attend all, most or even many of the events. Archers can attend as many or as few of the SCAYT events as they choose while still being part of the tour. For more information visit: https://scasarchery.org.uk/tournaments/scayt
