COMPETITION. The Kamentukash Club of Quebec has been chosen to present the 1st edition of the Canada Cup East, in the spring of 2022. Sanctioned by Archery Canada, the annual competition will have two parts, one for the East and the other for the West of the country. The one held in Quebec will include participants from Quebec, Ontario and the Maritimes.
To ensure the organization of the meeting, the Kamentukash club will benefit from the collaboration of Tir à l’arc Québec. The competition will take place on the archery ground of the Sainte-Foy outdoor base. The event, which should bring together more than 100 archers and coaches, is scheduled for June 16-19.
“This is a great mark of confidence in our organization and we are very happy to be able to host this very first event. Welcoming the best archers from the eastern provinces of Canada to Quebec is an incredible opportunity for the development of the sport in our province”, commented Léonard Brisson and Gabriela Cosovan, respectively founding president of Club Kamentukash and technical director of Archery. arc Quebec.
Valuable support
The organizing committee of the Canada Cup East 2022 will also be able to count on the support of the City of Quebec and the Groupe Plein Air Faune. It is this organization that manages the Sainte-Foy outdoor base. The site has already hosted several high-calibre competitions, such as Quebec championships and national selections.
Québec Destination Affaires and the Québec City Tourism Office will also support the organizing committee and bring their expertise to the project. Quebec will therefore host the 1st Eastern Canada Cup in archery exactly 55 years after hosting the very first Canada Games, in 1967.
