On October 4, 2018, the ABAM Executive Committee approved a motion to amend the ABAM Canada Winter Games Team Selection Criteria Document v1.8. The amendment has been made due to the confirmation that compound 40cm vertical triple and recurve 40cm vertical triple faces will be used at the Canada Winter Games Archery Event. The rational for the amendment is to ensure all 2019 Canada Winter Games age eligible athletes qualify using the appropriate target and are capable of performing at the highest level necessary for the Archery Event.
The amendment is to Item 5.B Team Selection Procedures -> Criteria. The amendment to this section is as follows:
