Junior National Outdoor Championships

Continuing what was a very busy weekend for Southfields Archery Club, the 2022 Junior National Outdoor Championships were held on 2 and 3 July at the National Sports Centre (Lilleshall). Two hundred archers representing England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland competed in the metric rounds on Saturday and imperial rounds on Sunday.

Our club was represented by eight archers shooting in recurve and barebow categories. After an exciting eight hours of competition, Southfields archers won six medals in total. Halimah shooting barebow won two golds in the competition (Metric 4 and Bristol 4), Cameron won silver in Bristol 2 recurve, Sarah won bronze in Bristol 4 recurve, Artemi won bronze and Sebastian silver (both in Bristol 4 barebow). This is the most successful Nationals (so far), testament to our developing junior team. A huge congratulations to all who took part.
