History

[edit]

Modern archery sport in Turkey began in 1937 with the establishment of a club in Istanbul specialized in this branch. Archery was governed by the governmental Directorate General of Physical Education until its detachment and integration into the Turkish Shooting Federation in 1953. On May 8, 1961, archery activities were formed in an independent organization. In 1981, archery was subordinated under the shooting again, however that lasted only one year.[1][2][3][4]

The Turkish Archery Federation became in 1955 as the 16th member of the International Archery Federation (FITA).[1]

On May 31, 2006, the federation gained its complete administrative and financial independence.[1]
