The UK Junior Masters and the JAS Finals champions are crowned at the two day event at Deer Park Archers
The UK Junior Masters and the final stage of the Junior Archery Series took place this past weekend. Over 100 juniors aged from 10 to 20 years old took part across the two-day event, a 50% increase on entry numbers for 2022.
Recurve and longbow Saturday enjoyed the peak of the heatwave, with the day topping 30 degrees. On the Sunday for the compound and barebow archers, the weather reverted to typical British affair of overcast, with light showers and sunshine later on.
A total of 177 different archers took part in at least one stage of the JAS series, representing 89 different clubs from across all four of the home nations. The 42 archers who competed in at least 3 of the 4 stages qualified for the Finals at Deer Park Archers.
Pete Sissons, Tournament Organiser, said: “It was a privilege for Deer Park Archers to host the inaugural Junior Archer Series Finals and see the best archers from all over the country come together to shoot in a competitive yet friendly atmosphere, with everyone wanting to see others succeed.”

Andrew Stanford, Director of Shooting Judge, said: "I had the pleasure of being involved with two of the stages this year. I think the concept is great and is an additional route to build confidence in our juniors on a competitive level. As a judge and member of the AGB Board, it was great to witness the smiles on all the medal winners faces when presenting the JAS medals to them all - an utter pleasure!"
