The Junior Archery Series is a five stage youth competition that runs between 20 May - 10 September.
On 17 June, youth archers came to Woking Archery Club to shoot the second stage of the 2023 Junior Archery Series. Over the initial two stages of the Series there has been a total of 100 archers that have taken part from across 60 clubs, including those in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland!
They completed a qualifying 720 round followed by head-to-head matches to determine the overall category winners for the day's competition.
Mark Preston, Tournament organiser, said: “JAS2 at Woking AC proved to be a great success, with beautiful weather, happy smiling archers making new friends, and competing in the sport we love.”

Scores will be accumulated by archers at each event, which are based on their placings in the qualifying round and the head-to-heads. The overall JAS category champions will be determined by these points.
Meghan Robertson, winner of the recurve women's under 18 said: "I'm extremely proud of myself for taking gold, and it shows that hard work always pays off. It was lovely to see all my friends that I haven’t seen in such a long time. Onward and upward for the rest of the season."
