Kent WRS720 with H2Hs – Tournament Results

On Sunday 9th June 2024, 78 archers on 24 targets descended on Vigo to compete in the KAA WRS720 with Matchplay. Thankfully the weather stayed dry, the temperature varied and the wind? Well it started off calm and Vigo being Vigo, it got a bit breezy by the time we got to the head to heads after lunch.

It was a great day with some shooting their first head to head whilst for others it was their first ever tournament with some good results.

A BIG thank you to all the archers that entered and an equally big thank you to the Judges and also the volunteers. So until we do it all over again next year in 2025……

4 way intercounty junior shoot results

On Saturday 9th Sept a team of 11 Kent Juniors travelled to Sussex to compete in a 4-way match with Hampshire, Essex and Sussex. Unfortunately Essex couldn’t field a team so it became a 3 way shoot.

The Kent archers dominated the results achieving the highest score for four of the 8 categories.

Matt May – Highest gents recurve
Lucy Noar – Highest ladies recurve
Niamh Kelly-Halabi – Highest ladies longbow
Evan Clarke – highest gents compound and his 6-gold badge.

Kent won the event by over 200 points with Sussex in second and Hampshire in third.

The team shot amazingly well in the scorching heat and did the county proud.

If you would like to be part of the next county events, there is likely to be more opportunities for both seniors and juniors on the horizon, please submit your scores through Golden Records so we know what you are up to.
