The US have the 'World Series' Baseball - I can't recall seeing too many non-US teams taking part (perhaps Clicki knows more) So perhaps we can have World Records for all Imperial rounds and have GNAS manage them. Anyone belonging to any FITA Affiliate could apply for a record as long as it was shot under the GNAS rules. Then its up to International archers to decide if they want to shoot an imperial round...... just like I am sure it is up to us to enter a Baseball team in the World Series
