City of Cambridge Bowmen World Archery Weekend 2023
Several Ely Archers (Louise, Paul, Daniel, Jordan and Julian) attended the World Archery weekend at City of Cambridge Bowmen on Saturday and Sunday 13th and 14th May at Downing College Sports Ground. The rounds shot were double 720 rounds, so 144 arrows plus sighters each day. Distances on offer were 70m for senior recurve, 60m for 50+ recurve and longbow and 50m for barebow and compound.
Saturday saw chilly breezy weather whilst the Sunday saw a mixture of clouds in the morning but full sunshine in the afternoon, with no wind at all.
Ely did manage to collect a few medals and some good results over the weekend and some personal bests were achieved. Although traditionally medals are not handed out at these types of events, as people are usually just shooting for national ranking points.
