Part of the answer may be useful for others, if you think that's the case I may copy those parts of the question here.

[Aydi al-Qais]

When you have time

[Arash Karuvah]

Techniques

Rank 1: The Strength of Indra
Kshatriya are taught to be fearless warriors, relying on the strength of Indra the God of War. You gain a +1k0 bonus with all your School Weapon Skills. When rolling to resist a Fear effect, your Willpower is considered one Rank higher.

I assume this benefit applies to the archery roll?

[Jewel]

That would apply.

[Rufus Belgica]

(There are four targets: TN5, TN10, TN15, and TN20

Each archer has three shots and may shoot at any target. (All 3 at TN5, all 3 at TN20, any combination of targets, etc.)

The roll is Archery/Reflexes and is considered non-combat. However some combat techniques may apply - please ask in the GM questions thread if you think yours might.

Points are scored in the following manner:
One point per successful hit
One point if all three hit
One additional point per hit on the TN20 target
One point to the archer with the most raises on each target. In the case of a tie in number of raises it goes to the highest roll. If roll and raises are both tied all involved in the tie get the point.

Winners will be ranked on total points, best distance, most total raises, and then Khadi's discretion in case of further ties.

I was not sure from the wording: Is taking on a higher target range considered a Raise for the purposes of points?

i.e. A shot at TN 15 is considered to be 2 raises?

[Asher]

If you are sponsoring does the sponsor boast and behalf of his sponsoree?

There are four targets on the field
Target TN5
Target TN10
Target TN15
Target TN20

Raises do not impact points other than having the most raises on a target.

So if you hit target TN10 with three raises and every else calls two raises or fewer on that target you get the point for raises.

So there's basically four points for raises available one for each target (though a single character could get a maximum of three of them since they only get three arrows)

[Jewel]

If you are sponsoring does the sponsor boast and behalf of his sponsoree?

Correct

[Asher]

If you are sponsoring does the sponsor boast and behalf of his sponsoree?

Correct

Do we gain the rep/infamy or does our archer?

[Jewel]

The sponsor gains half the reputation rewards/penalties that the archer would have. So boasting is a good way to get more reputation - if you succeed.
