Archery at the 2014 Summer Youth Olympics was held from 22 to 26 August. The events took place at the Fangshan Sports Training Base in Nanjing, China.
Each National Olympic Committee (NOC) could enter a maximum of 2 competitors, 1 per each gender. As hosts, China was given the maximum quota, however they declined the spot for the boys' event and thus the spot was reallocated to the next best nation at the 2013 World Archery Youth Championships. A further 8 spots, 4 in each gender was to be decided by the Tripartite Commission, but only 5 were given. The next three sports, followed by the remaining 54 spots were decided by qualification events at the previous world youth championships and the five continental qualification tournaments.[1]
To be eligible to participate at the 2014 Youth Olympics, athletes must have been born between 1 January 1997 and 31 December 1999. Furthermore, all archers must have achieved the following Minimum Qualification Score (MQS):
The MQS must be achieved between 1 September 2013 and 1 July 2014 at a registered FITA event.
