Qualification is poised to begin tomorrow in Berlin ©World Archery

Berlin will stage the largest stage of this year’s Archery World Cup as 351 athletes are set to compete in the German city.

Qualification will begin tomorrow, with archers having had the opportunity to practice in front of the Olympiastadion Berlin, which was originally built for the 1936 Olympic Games.

A total of 50 nations will be represented in Germany’s capital city, which is the last stage of the 2017 circuit.

Archers will be hoping to secure their places at the Archery World Cup Final with their performances in both compound and recurve events.

Five athletes have already secured their spots in the final, which will take place in Rome from September 2 to 3.

American Brady Ellison has qualified for the men’s recurve event, while Denmark’s compound archer Stephan Hansen has also booked his place.

South Korea’s recurve archer Chang Hye Jin has qualified for the women’s event in Rome, while Denmark’s Sarah Sonnichsen and Sara Lopez of Colombia have also earned places in the compound event.

Lopez is the only one of the five archers not to be competing in Berlin, opening up the opportunity for Sonnichsen to secure the top seeding for the World Cup Final.

Qualification and elimination phases of competition will take place alongside the Olympiastadion.

Action will then move to the Lilli-Henoch Sportplatz for the finals on August 12 and 13.
