The 2011 World Archery Championships was the 46th edition of the World Archery Championships. The event was held in Italy from July 2 to July 10, 2011 and was organized by International Archery Federation (FITA).[1] The event was contested in two different areas. The preliminary rounds were held at Palazzina di caccia of Stupinigi in Nichelino (10km south-west of Turin) and the finals were held at the Piazza Castello in Turin.[2] The top eight teams in the recurve competition for men and women qualified for the 2012 Summer Olympics, as eight athletes from NOC's not already qualified qualified quotas for their countries.[3]
