LocationStone Mountain Archery Center, Stone Mountain, Georgia
Participants45 from 15 countries
FormatTeams consisted of 3 archers. Ranking rounds scores based on scores carried over from individual ranking round. Tie-breaking for the final placements was done by the following method. Losers in each round were ranked according to the score they shot in that round. Ties in that round were broken by the number of 10s shot in that round and then the number of 9s shot in that round. If still tied the score in the preceding round was used as the tie-breaker, followed by number of 10s, and then number of 9s in the preceding round. Team event shot entirely at 70 metres. Matches consisted of 27 arrows, 9 per archer.

Korea had won the last four World Championships and the last two Olympic titles. As they had done in 1992 the Korean women set a world record in the ranking round, but unlike 1992, they were unchallenged in their matches as they won their third consecutive gold medal in this event. Korea defeated Germany in the final round, with the bronze medal going to Poland, who defeated the surprising Turkish team to win that medal.
