Robin Selley won the Recurve Cadet 60m Women’s Division with a score of 591, while Jaydon Roberts won the Recurve Junior Elite 70m Men’s Division with a score of 590.
President Ross Roberts said, “We are pleased with the turnout of archers who competed in today’s event. Archery continues to grow in Bermuda and during Outdoor Nationals we had a few developmental and amateur divisions to encourage our progressing archers. Our Yeoman and Bowman (kids) categories shows some promising upcoming archers. These kids have so much enthusiasm, the potential and we ensure they have fun doing so. Our Amateur division participants will soon be progressing towards the 50m, 60m and 70m distances. For our Cadets shooting at 60m, Juniors shooting at 70m and Seniors shooting at 70m, this event determines their participation in the 2025 Event Qualifiers, World Cup and World Championship Events. Robin Selly, Recurve Cadet archer has secured her position during this National shoot to travel to Buenos Aires, Argentina in March 2025 to shoot in the qualifier for the Junior 2025 Pan American Games. Recurve Junior archer, Jaydon Roberts, qualified for the Junior 2025 Pan American Games in May 2024. We are hoping to have Robin secure her position in March 2025 to allow them to compete in the mixed team event along with their individual matches.”
Secretary General - Trina Roberts said, “We want to thank all the archers, their supportive families, and friends for joining us. To our volunteers and sponsors - Rustico Restaurant and Gold Point Archery, thank you for your continued support. This event ends our outdoor shooting season, and we are now preparing for upcoming indoor events. The first event will be 1 November 2024 in Lausanne, Switzerland for the World Archery Indoor Series. Archers will shoot at 18m. Camerin Pickering will be shooting in the Recurve Senior Men, while Jaydon Roberts and Robin Selley will be shooting in the U21 Male and Female divisions.”
