EQUESTRIAN ARCHERY GRADING WITH THE WFEA

Seawinds Horse Archers offers the opportunity for riders to be graded with the martial arts system of the World Federation of Equestrian Archery.

​

Grading examinations are based on tested performance on the Kassai style track following the procedures of a competition in the presence of WFEA International Judge, Lance Bishop.  ​

​

Student grading examinations are based on the Kassai style competition starting at the achievement of 30 points (blue sash).  Each subsequent examination after the first grade of 30 points must be achieved in sequence (without skipping grades) at intervals of 30 points for each new grade (60, 90, 120 points and so on).  After the first grade, students must achieve the points associated with their next grade in official competitions twice prior to their grade examination for each level.  The complete array of grades, associated sash colours and examination requirements are available on the WFEA website.

​

All grading applications must be submitted to the WFEA via Lance Bishop at least one week prior to the date of the exam.  Email lance@wildmountain.ca to express your intention to apply for an exam.​
