National Indoor League Champions Crowned, Outdoor Edition to Begin Soon

The 2025 National Indoor Winter League involved 10 exciting weeks of international-level competition held right from archers’ home ranges. Running from January 12 through March 23, the National League gave NFAA members around the world the chance to test their skills in a unique format that brought global competition to local venues.

Participants shot NFAA 300 rounds on the iconic blue and white target face during the first five weeks, helping them gear up for the NFAA Indoor National Championships. The second half of the League transitioned to Vegas rounds in preparation for The Vegas Shoot. For final standings, each archer’s top four scores from both the NFAA and Vegas sessions were counted toward their overall National Indoor League placement.

This winter’s National League saw nearly 300 archers compete at 71 host ranges worldwide. Combined with the inaugural National Indoor Fall League, more than 500 archers took part in the National League program throughout this past indoor season. The convenience and flexibility of shooting locally while competing nationally proved to be a major draw for archers of all levels.

Winners in each division were awarded exclusive National League belt buckles to celebrate their achievement, while top collegiate finishers received a generous $250 scholarship to support their higher education goals. All registrants were also automatically entered into a raffle, with James-Rene Clerc and Diana Liedl winning free pre-registration to a 2025–26 NFAA national or sectional event of their choice.

In addition to providing a premier competitive experience for archers, the League also offered strong incentives for host locations. Clubs and shops with a current NFAA charter or license and indoor range certification were eligible for lucrative hosting rebates—another reason for ranges to get involved!

Looking ahead, the excitement continues with the upcoming National Outdoor Leagues launching in May. Archers will once again have the opportunity to shoot at their local ranges and compete nationally. The National Field League kicks off first, culminating in the National Field Championships, followed closely by the National Target League, which will wrap up with the National Target Championships. Don’t miss out—get your local club involved to earn cash rebates, and join the growing community of League archers making their mark across the country.
