With more than two months to go before the 1 September bid submission deadline, the number and geographical diversity of potential hosts that have expressed an interest in organising the event through the request of bid packages has been impressive.
With simplified venue requirements and minimal technical regulations, the Archery World Cup Final provides its hosts with the freedom and flexibility to set up the most dramatic and extravagant backdrop to showcase their city through sport. The bid process has been structured such that all cities, regions, member associations, private event organisers and corporate partners are eligible to bid for the event.
Prof Dr Ugur ERDENER, President of International Archery Federation, said:
"We are thrilled to see that this event’s concept, aimed at creating optimal promotional impact for both our hosts and our sport, have generated such positive worldwide interest. As we start to receive bids over the next two months, it will be interesting to see what creative concepts and exciting locations bidders have dreamt up for 2012 and 2013."
This is the second time the International Archery Federation has partnered with TSE Consulting to conceptualise and implement the bidding process for its Archery World Cup Final. The first bidding process concluded in 2008, with the hosting rights for the event awarded to Copenhagen, Edinburgh and Istanbul, respectively from 2009 to 2011.
The election of hosts for the 2012 and 2013 editions of the Archery World Cup Final will take place this November in Istanbul, Turkey.
