On Sunday 27th September, Targetcraft Archers hosted the NCAS County & Open Juniors Competition, marking a memorable end to the outdoor season. Suggested earlier this year by the NCAS Junior Representative, the event brought together young archers from across the county alongside several visitors.
For a few participants, this was their very first taste of competitive archery. While initial nerves were high, the welcoming atmosphere quickly set everyone at ease, making way for a day of great sportsmanship and shared enthusiasm.
The weather delivered a classic mix of rain and sunshine, giving both the juniors and their supporting parents a true taste of outdoor shooting conditions. Competitors completed a National round in the morning before stepping off the line to enjoy a well-earned selection of delicious homemade cakes.
Following lunch, NCAS Tournament Organiser Mark Allison presented medals and gift bags to celebrate the young archers’ achievements. The action didn’t stop there—several juniors stayed on to challenge themselves in a series of fun skill-and-precision archery games.
The event proved to be as much about community as competition, with one junior highlighting the best part of the day: “It was fun and great to socialise with other juniors I hadn’t met before.”
Thank you to Targetcraft Archers, the volunteers, parents/guardians, and all the competitors who made the final outdoor target shoot of the season such a resounding success.
