But there doesn't seem much time.
yes, Dubai would be very nice - I'd offer my services to go as a helper
I guess there might be some venues and hotels available in Beijing as well by that time...

But on a more serious note, the latest FITA INFO Newsletter has the "Youth Archery World Championships" down for both 2008 and 2009 (with date and location TBC). Plus the European Junior Championships are now showing as 2010. So it looks to me as though FITA are already planning for the Junior Worlds to slip a year. This would be really unfair on all those juniors for whom 2008 is the last year they can compete in this event.

I also notice that the Archery World Cup final is down for October with location TBC. I wonder if there is any chance they could link the two together and hold them in the same place.
