2024 Ontario Winter Games – an archery first

Kathleen Millar Eastern Zone Coach for Ontario Winter Games

Kathleen Millar, team coach, along with manager Garnett Last, will be supporting the Eastern Zone archery team to the 2024 Ontario Winter Games, February 22-26th, 2024.  The Games are taking place in Thunder Bay, ON.

This is the first time that archery has been assigned to the Winter Games, and therefore, archers will be shooting indoors at 18m. The team age categories, U21 and younger, include recurve and compound archers from across the zone.

Archers are looking forward to all the aspects of competition and Games.  There is a wide cross-section of archer experience and age on this team for males and females, from first-time major games participation to Pan Am youth championships.

While the Games are running, Kathleen Millar will not be available for private coaching from February 21 to 28, 2024.  In the meantime, for further information on private lessons, please contact South Nation Archery at 613-989-2943 and speak with Larry.

2024 Provincial Indoor IFAA Championships at SNAC

Thank you to our competitors and guests who joined us to shoot this championship on Sunday, January 28.  Attendance was a little smaller this year due to the fact that quite a few of our regular competitors were attending the Lancaster Archery Tournament in Pennsylvania.

That didn’t stop 2 of our members from setting unofficial provincial records for this round.

Travis Tyo in 21+ men’s hunter division shot a 300 with 46 5s

Shawn Matheson in 21+ Para Open Recurve shot 266 to break his own record.

Congratulations to Pam Leclair, who also shot a PB on this round.

Club results follow.  For full results, please consult the Archery Ontario website.
