Northland archers have proved their mettle on the international stage with an impressive performance at the IFAA World Field Archery Competition.
Held in Wagga Wagga, NSW, seven participants from Mt Tiger Archers took part along with over 650 archers from 16 countries.
This was the largest archery event ever held in Australasia. The competition was to be over five days, however a significant weather event in NSW effected the shoot, which was reduced to three days of intense competition.
The archers from Mt Tiger competed extremely well in their respective events and brought home some well earned world placings.
The Team of Nations is a well-fought-over title, where all nations competing enter a team of seven archers who represent all shooting divisions. The New Zealand team took out top honours and brought home gold in this event.
