In 2013 the Gator Cup is again hosted by the Easton Foundations at the Easton Newberry Sports Complex (an Easton Archery Center) in sunny Newberry, Florida.
For the second time in its short history, the Gator Cup will again double as USA Archery’s selection for the World Championships Team Trials that will compete in Turkey later this year. Given the combination of Florida’s excellent weather, world class facilities and the selection event for the national team, it is expected to be the largest edition of the Gator Cup ever held, with the world's best archers in attendance.
