U21 (Junior): Outdoor 30m/122cm. Indoor 12m/60cm*

*There are no "target archery" rules for Longbow/Traditional (L/T) in WA (only rules for field/3D archery). 30m and 122cm outdoor follows the Nordic country standards. 12m at a 60cm target face indoor fit best when comparing the ratio of target face size and distance for different bowtypes indoor/outdoor. Longbow/traditional bows are combined to increase participation.

The Nordic Countries have a U16 class instead of the U15 in WA.

There are four national titles in Iceland (4 indoor and 4 outdoor):
Unisex club team title.
Men's individual title
Women's individual title
Unisex individual title
Everyone will compete for the unisex title: men, women, non-binary/other, elves, humans etc.
This ensures that every club member in Iceland can participate and compete for a national title, no matter what their life situation is, and it also gives men and women a platform to compete against each other.
