Youth Festival

The 2022 Youth Festival will be held on 26-30 July at Lilleshall National Sports Centre.

The Youth Festival 2022 incorporating Junior International Mixed Team Event 

The Archery GB Youth Festival started in 2014 as an experience event for athletes in the AGB Pathway. Over the years the event has grown and become more inclusive. It is important to remember at the heart of this event, it is an international simulated event for athletes to learn from and experience what an international experience might be like. 

It is very hard to keep everyone involved at all times due to the structure of the event and how matches work. To give archers a better experience on Thursday 28 July, there will be a team round robins day. This will consist of team matches, these will be different teams to the main event and small prizes will be awarded.
