The shortlisted nominees have been announced for Archery GB’s Recognition Awards 2025.
More than 200 nominations were received from clubs, schools and activity centres all over the UK.
Whittling them down was no mean feat with our staff and Board inspired and moved by the stories behind some of our incredible volunteers.
Gayle Pink, Head of Participation, said: "We were blown away by the many stories you shared about the volunteers who go the extra mile for our sport. A massive thank you to everyone who nominated and gave us such a difficult but inspiring job in choosing the shortlist.
"Thank you as well to our award sponsors Easton, Clickers, Howden and Serco.
"We can’t wait to celebrate with everyone at the awards ceremony and meet our amazing archery heroes in person."
