Antigua archers compete in indoor World Series for ninth year

Three archers from Antigua’s Club Deportivo San Crispín competed in the opening event of the Indoor Archery World Series from 30 October to 1 November, marking the club’s ninth year of participation.

Tigana Florizoone Vera finished 11th in the under-21 compound category after passing the qualifying cut despite a minor equipment problem. She was then knocked out in a closely fought elimination match against Croatian archer Ivana Mavracic.

Mick Reliham qualified with difficulty in the over-50 compound category, but an equipment problem prevented him from taking part in the elimination round. He withdrew and finished 15th.

José Luis Barrero Pérez, competing in the men’s under-21 recurve category, finished 38th and did not make the qualifying cut. He was competing in a higher age category than his own and, like Reliham, found the venue’s lighting difficult.

The club has returned to Fuerteventura and is preparing for the second Indoor World Series event, due to take place in Luxembourg from 20 to 22 November.
