Archery GB has named its team for the European Youth Archery Championships 2022 with 24 archers being selected to fly the flag for GB.
The competition will take place at Lilleshall National Sports Centre from 15-20 August with over 300 athletes aged under 21, from 36 countries taking part.
Over six days of action-packed competition, there will be multiple medals to be won by talented young archers in both individual and team events. With practice and qualification rounds, as well as team and individual matches and finals taking place, the event promises to attract hundreds of archers and spectators.
On the main field you can watch throughout the day from Tuesday to Thursday. Orangery finals sessions on Thursday are from 4pm - 6pm for mixed teams. On Friday, team finals are from 3pm - 6:30pm, also at the Orangery.
The awards ceremony and individual finals take place on Saturday 20 August between 10am and 5:30pm and tickets for that day are £10 per person (plus VAT and booking charges), available via Eventbrite. Capacity for the event is limited so make sure to register early for the Saturday.
