Hello All
Saturday 19th February. Sittingbourne Community College Kent
We were invited to take part in the 4 way indoor Portsmouth competition between, Kent, ECAA, Hertfordshire and Surrey.
The morning team comprised of Compound Archers, Jason Pretlove, Brian Lock, Tony Sewell and Simon Spendlove, Recurve Archers, Michael Judd, Zep Birdsall, Wendie King and Allan Horne.
The afternoon Archers were Barebow, Tony Gedalovitch, Mark Turner, Peter Schofield, Longbow, Eric Mallet, Mark Lawrence, Harry Cossey and Myself. We were short of one barebow archers but Kent had an extra, Alice Friend who filled out our team. Thanks Alice
We started each session with a minutes silence due to the untimely passing of one of the Kent Archers, and then the recurve and compound teams started. Everyone put in a very good effort and at the end of the session the compound results were complete but we had to wait for the recurve as one of the other teams had to swap a longbow and recurve archer between sessions.
The Compound result was
Herts 2307
ECAA 2260
Kent 1703
