Congratulations to our August 2018 Beginner Course Graduates
Congratulations and a massive well done to you all. Two days of beautiful blue skies and sunshine. As with the weather, the competition for the medals was a hot one. The gold medal was always going to be fiercely contested, and the favourite faulted in the semi finals under the heat and pressure of the moment.
It was a fantastic weekend yet again, and was a pleasure to meet you all. We hope you continue on your archery journey and may it be a long and prosperous one!

Thank you to Chris and Warren for acting as Instructors, Len for front and back of house support. Yet again, there was a special delivery of coffee and homemade cake at around 1400 on the Sunday, which kept the instructors energised for the last 90 minutes. Thank you for the supplies.
