The 2018 January Challenge will be running again. So only one question remains: are you up for it?
This year once again, Archery GB is running a postal shoot for individual archers based on the Junior November Challenge. You should simply submit your best score for a Portsmouth round that you have shot in January.
This is actually the fifteenth time the Challenge is being run. We started it in 2004 as something that every club member could take part in, and we have steadily increased the number of entrants from a start of around 200 - until, a couple of years ago, we suddenly leapt up to over 1,000. But there are still plenty of archers out there. Juniors can enter, but will be counted alongside adults (often they do, and, of course, beat them); this year, if provided, their age will be shown in the results. A small trophy will be awarded to each section winner.
