The World Indoor Archery Championships, an international competition in archery, were held in alternate years from 1991 (except for a three-year gap 2009 - 2012), to 2018, each time in a different host city and organized by the World Archery Federation (WA). There were events in adult and junior categories using the recurve and compound bows.
The championships were discontinued after their 2018 edition and were effectively replaced by the Indoor Archery World Series, also organized by WA. This annual circuit of events was established in 2010 as the Indoor Archery World Cup, receiving its current name in 2019.[1]
