Junior News

We’re now halfway through the outdoor season and quite a few of you have been very busy with competitions and claiming awards. This has given me quite a lot for the achievements page(s). Well done to those who entered some of the tournaments and the good results they won from Havering Youth Games, West Essex invitation shoot and especially the Junior National Outdoor Championships. More details on the inside pages.

FITA Award scheme 6

There are a few tournaments left so keep up the good work and give lots more to write about. The next issue should include results from Essex FITA, Southern Counties Championships at Colchester, and at Runwell and the Essex FITA Field Championships. Now there’s a challenge, enter the field champs and you might spot me with a bow in my hand. Yes, mine this time.

Congratulations also to: Luke Willett of Rayleigh Town AC for wining the York round at JNOC to become National recurve Champion at Lilleshall. Well done Luke.

Tom Barber of Thorpe Hamlet AC for winning the Gents FITA round at JNOC. Several Mayflower members know 16 year old Tom and are probably aware that he has been selected as the 4th member of the GB Olympic team for Beijing. That’s fantastic! We wish Tom and all our British athletes well for the Olympic games.

Olympic News

The Olympic Archery team will be: Ladies: Gents:
Alison Williamson, Naomi Folkard, Charlotte Burgess and Emma Downie Simon Terry, Larry Godfrey, Alan Wills and Tom Barber

We should not forget Lynne Burton’s difficult journey to qualify for the Paralympic Archery team. Lynne, from Chelmsford, has an amazing story to tell, which has been published on Essex web pages and reproduced on page 7. Olympic coverage can be found on digital and satellite television. I hope! It was last time.

Mayflower team at Havering Youth Games

Well done the team. Full report on the club website. West Essex Junior Invitation shoot - 10th May Shooting ‘National’ rounds again Mayflower fielded a team of five to bring home the silver medals Well done Nicole Scorah, Katie Ward, Sam Yeates, Alex Croft and Lewis Jones.

Essex County Target Championships—14th June Hmm! No medals this time, but they did get some good scores in this highly competitive event. However, Alex claimed a Black Rose, missing a Blue Rose by 2 points and Sam claimed a White Rose while Aaron won the Lord Paramount Prize. See more on the ‘Achievements News’ page in ‘Archery UK’.

In the meanwhile Joe Elvidge, with mum Rachel, both won Gold medals at Greenwood Osterley Archers on 1st June. This is a junior shoot where parents can join in as long as they bring a child. Mum was shooting an Albion and Joe, with his Longbow this time, a Short Junior Windsor also winning a Badminton racket in the raffle. They didn’t quite manage the family team prize, but you can’t win them all. Well done both of you. Full report on the club website.

Mayflower Archers Albion & Windsor open shoot—28th June What a glorious day for a friendly shoot. I think we all owe a debt of gratitude to Steve for coming up with the idea. And loads of Mayflower members for helping out to make a very memorable day. Did you enjoy it? Were you there?

As this was a friendly relaxed shoot, there were no medals to be won. But had there been then members would have won the following: Alex Croft under 16 Albion recurve Gold Lewis Jones u 16 Short Windsor recurve Silver Matt Andrews u16 Short Windsor recurve Bronze Mitchell Wilk u14 Jun Windsor recurve Gold Katie Ward u16 Junior Windsor recurve Gold
Alastair Humphreys u18 Windsor compound Gold
Nicole Scorah u16 Jun Windsor recurve Silver Joe Elvidge u12 Special Windsor barebow Gold I won’t mention what our senior members achieved, because we juniors don’t worry about them. Results, reports and photographs can be found on the club website, www.mayflowerarchers.co.uk and Essex County website, www.ecaa.org.uk and they’re well worth visiting.

Any more news you didn’t tell me about? I’m always willing to publish news and views. Contact Roger Glover on 01277 650358 or mail me at [email protected]

Junior National Outdoor Championships—Lilleshall 5th & 6th July

Despite the wind and rain, it seems like all those attending had a very enjoyable weekend. Apparently meal times were a laugh as well. There are some fantastically good juniors attend this event who make it very competitive so unfortunately, no medals were won this time, but nobody disgraced themselves either and returned some good places. However, everybody made claims for various achievement awards.

English Archery Federation—English crosses: Alex Croft 13th, Blue cross for Metric 1. Lewis Jones, Green cross for Metric 2. Sam Yeates, Black cross for Metric 3. Nicole Scorah, white cross for Metric 3. Katie Ward already has her Black cross.

GNAS—Rose Awards: Sam Yeates, Black Rose for Bristol 3. Nicole Scorah, with a massive pb of 979 for a Black Rose.

Well done one and all and glad the trip was enjoyably worthwhile. Rob Markham’s report Having lost son Michael from the world of archery to the world of girls, I jumped at the suggestion from Steve Fenton of renting a few of our juniors archers, sticking them on a mini bus and ferrying them up to Lilleshall for the Junior National Championships. Steve was similarly pining for the Junior Championships after George became a senior last November and we figured the only way we could get there would be to press gang a few of our kids from the club.

Having realised I had messed up my work diary which put me in Sandown Park for all of the Friday, it was left to David Scorah to hire a bus and drive our kids and their parents to Lilleshall (Steve also came up with an excellent excuse not to travel in the mini bus).

We took five junior archers from Mayflower, four of whom had never shot at this level of tournament before. They were joined by archers from RTAC, Oakfield, Chelmsford Tudor Rose, HNA, Burntwood, Noak Hill and CADAC. This was an impressive turnout for Essex Juniors and a long way from the poor showing in 2002 when we had just two!

Congratulations to Sam Yeates who raised over £600 for St Francis Hospice at Noak Hill Archers charity fun shoot on 25th May. That’s the spirit Sam, well done!

Alex Croft breaks u16 Club record for a York with a score of 868. This record has been held by Alex Purser since 2002. Hmm! Another Alex holds the record.

Mayflower Juniors at Lilleshall

Katie Ward ranks 5th in the County Outdoor, top 10 juniors. However, Nicole Scorah’s absence from the top 10 is to be questioned.

Entry forms for tournaments are available from Steve Fenton, the club notice board or can be downloaded from our Mayflower website, www.mayflowerarchers.co.uk tournament diary pages.

For those who wish to enter any ‘Open’, County (ECAA), Southern Counties (SCAS) or National tournaments, it is essential that you are able to competently shoot your age distance as shorter distances are not permitted. If you’ve never entered an outside tournament before, it is advisable to seek advice before completing the entry form. In this case, please seek assistance from any member of the Junior Team who will be willing to answer any questions and may be able to supply you with a fact sheet.

Junior Sub Committee Update

As you may remember, the Junior section invited the Junior Captain and another to attend meetings to tell us old ‘uns (but only in years, ‘cos we never grew up) what you really want from the club. Well, we understand that you’d like to have more ‘Fun shoots’ and more assistance on bow set up. We’re going to have to put our thinking caps on, but would welcome any suggestions for ‘Fun’ before we come up with something else. Don’t forget, we already run two 3d shoots a year and a Christmas fun shoot. For the coaching, without putting additional pressure on our coaches, we hope to incorporate this with the FITA Feather award scheme. Thus, you can get the assistance and the award. Feel free to talk with Nicole or Lewis or one of the team.

FITA Beginner’s Awards.

Feather & Arrow

Mayflower Archery Club will be introducing this scheme to help with our new and existing juniors and all beginners, including adults, to help with their development in archery.

The FITA Beginner’s Award Scheme has been designed to allow beginners in Archery to measure their progress against set standards. Their progress should be encouraged by the clubs and rewarded by the winning of FITA Feather and Arrow pins.

The awards are based on three (3) attainments.

Performance. Skill. Knowledge & Know How.

The awards are split into two categories: 1) FEATHER AWARDS, for the youngest beginners, under 12 years of age and some disabled beginners. (It is up to the club coach to decide on an archer’s eligibility).

2) ARROW AWARDS, these are for pre-teenagers, teenagers and adults. (The pre- teenagers will usually have already gained their feather awards).

The FITA Beginner’s Award Scheme is designed to reward the beginner at the various stages of their development, from shooting at very short distances 6-10 metres, which is dependent on age, to the shortest indoor distance 18 m and even further to near 30m. The size of the target faces will also vary, for feather awards 80 cm spot face or 40 cm face counting hits only, for arrow awards 80 cm full face using conventional FITA scoring.

  • Feather Award
  • Arrow Award

To all juniors and adults wishing to apply for this training program please contact

Lynne Burton - My road to Beijing selection

In February the Paralympic Squad learned the number of places we had gained for Beijing for each disability category. Unfortunately for me that meant a selection shoot scheduled for 31 May. Things were going well and I was starting to get PBs at the shoots I was going to.

On 15 May I turned yellow so the following day I went for blood tests at the Royal Free Hospital where I had been given my liver transplant.

17 May saw the GNAS National Disabled Archery Competition. I felt very tired and jaundiced but wanted to take part. 12 arrows into the 30 metre section I received a phone call telling me I was very ill and it was essential I go into hospital as soon as possible. However I finished the competition regardless, getting a PB and coming second to Kathy Critchlow-Smith!

As soon as I finished shooting I left immediately for the Royal Free Hospital and the following day (a Sunday) they opened part of the Radiology Department especially for me to have a liver biopsy. This unfortunately showed chronic rejection of my transplanted liver. To try and counter this I have been put on large doses of immuno-suppression drugs.

Two weeks after being admitted to hospital I was due at Lilleshall. I was definitely unfit to drive but my coach agreed to be my “Knight in shining armour” and drove me to the selection shoot. Comments such as ‘You look awful’ and ‘what on earth are you doing here?’ were flying around’. I replied, ‘I’m not sure – but if I don’t try to take part in the shoot I have no chance of going to the Paralympics and my next chance would not be for 4 years’.

As I had not shot for 2 weeks and not sat up for more than an hour at a time I was very worried. I am not sure how I managed to do the Olympic round then a round robin head-to-head in the afternoon where I scored the best 2 dozen ends I had done all day. At 1630 hours the squad was announced – I had won a place for Beijing! No time to celebrate as I had to return to being an inpatient – but my phone became very busy!!

I make no apologies for adding this to Junior News. I think it’s an amazing story of one person’s struggle against their disability and determination to achieve.

If in reproducing this article from the Essex WebPages, I have offended copyright or similar procedures, I beg forgiveness, just this once. I think that myself and a lot of Essex archers could learn a lot from Lynne’s example.

Please add you congratulations to Lynne on the Essex Forum page.

Friday 18th July. Sadly, I have just learned that due to another transplant, Lynne may not be able to attend the Paralympic Games this time round. Our sympathies must go to Lynne, who is one very determined lady.

‘JAWS’ awards

Annually, the junior committee at GNAS run a junior awards scheme (jaws). Trophies are given for the winners and runners up claiming the most points in the scheme collected throughout the year. Points are claimed for entering ‘Open’, County, Regional and National events and for claiming ‘Rose’ and FITA awards or attaining a ‘Six Gold End’. The form is a pain to complete, but gives you incentive to achieve. Full details in ‘Archery UK’, www.gnas.org or see Steve or Roger.

Junior Rankings

Something else that you may wish to consider is sending your best three 12 dozen scores to GNAS and get placed in the National ranking scheme. Collect your scores and score sheets (or result sheets) and send them off at the end of the year.

    University of Birmingham Athletes on the Road to Rio

    University of Birmingham Sport press release FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE University of Birmingham athletes on the road to Rio One current student and eight alumni athletes from the University of Birmingham Sport have now been confirmed for the 2016 Rio Olympic Games. This is a record breaking number of Birmingham educated athletes to be selected for the Olympics, showing that the sport programme at Birmingham continues to thrive. Lily Owsley, who currently studies Sport and Exercise Science has already made headlines worldwide this year. She was part of the England hockey squad who won the European Championships, as well as being named Rising Star of the Year by the International Hockey Federation. Owsley has achieved all this in a year where she was taken ill with meningitis and fractured her collar bone in a match against Australia. Also joining Lily on the Team GB women’s hockey squad at the Rio Olympics will be University of Birmingham alumni Sophie Bray and Ellie Watton (reserve). Simon Mantell, who graduated from the University of Birmingham in 2007, has been selected for the Team GB men’s hockey squad as a reserve. One of the University of Birmingham Sport’s most successful alumni of recent years, Non Stanford, who took up triathlon in her second year at University and then went on to become ITU World U23 Champion in 2013, will also be representing Team GB. Stanford, who trains alongside the Brownlee brothers, has been marked as a medal contender making Team GB’s triathlon team a force to be reckoned with. Non Stanford’s University housemate, Sara Treacy, has also been selected to represent Ireland in the 3000m steeplechase.

The evening was organised by George Matthews, and with lots of chocolates and sweets up for grabs, competition was fierce among those taking part! The Fancy Dress competition was won by Fiona Laing who came along as a very convincing snowman, and still managed to shoot! All members had to shoot using varying weight jelly bows and club arrows, so everyone had the same dis-advantages ! There were even some very special Christmas target faces supplied by club member and talented artist Jonathan Howlett. 14th December - Impressive Fundraising for Children in Need The junior section of Bannockburn Bowmen held a sponsored shoot in aid of Children in Need and raised an impressive £550. Event organiser Brenda Williams praised the juniors for their efforts, especially as the majority of them had only been shooting for 3 weeks when the sponsored shoot took place. Not only did they have to concentrate on their shooting, but they also ran a raffle, and many games for the adults to take part in. Douglas Blyth (the "senior" junior) did a great job with keeping everything running smoothly and ensuring all the jobs were done. Thanks too to all the club members who provided raffle prizes for the event. The attached photo shows some members of the junior section who took part in the Children in Need evening.

KYRIAKOU* Distinguished friends, It is an honor and pleasure to welcome to the sacred site of Ancient Olympia and the facilities of the International Olympic Academy the participants of this Inter- national Session. Olympic medallists are the elite of world sport. They are people who enjoy in- ternational visibility, citizens of the whole world and models for young people, a source of joy for sport and iconic figures for the Olympic Movement. I feel partic- ularly moved to be here with you now, as we are all gathered here, close to the birthplace of the Olympic Games and yet so far away from the institutions of the ancient Greek society that organized them.
