Shooting in warm and sunny conditions, success came their way with a number winning their various disciplines.
Junior Jacob Mumby Croft won the Windsor 30 and was also the highest scoring novice, which was shot across all bow disciplines.

Seniors Jess Earth won the Ladies’ Windsor Compound, Zara Fowler won the Ladies’ Recurve, Sam Newton won the Gents’ Windsor Recurve, with Dave Inglis winning the overall 50-plus event and Roger Sale the Gents’ Longbow 50-plus competition.
