Archery enthusiasts gear Up for Thrilling National 3D Championship in Autize
The picturesque town of Autize is set to host a highly anticipated national archery competition, drawing skilled archers from across the country. This exciting event promises a weekend filled with intense competition, camaraderie, and a celebration of the sport.
Last year’s champion, Ardin, will be aiming for a remarkable back-to-back victory on home turf. Fresh off a silver medal win in the mixed doubles category at the Elite Outdoor Archery French Championships, Ardin, alongside teammates Juliette Tisserond and Bastien Seris, will be looking to replicate their success in the 3D format.
The men’s division promises equally fierce competition. Eybens, the reigning champions, will face stiff challenges from determined teams eager to claim the coveted gold medal. Notably, the Bourg-St-maurice club, who narrowly lost to Eybens in last year’s final, will be seeking redemption.
Adding to the festive atmosphere, the mayor of Autize warmly welcomes all participants and spectators to the event. A vibrant expo village will be set up at the Chaillot community center parking lot, offering a unique experience for both archers and fans.
This national championship marks one of the final outdoor archery competitions of the season, providing a perfect possibility for archers to showcase their skills and enjoy a memorable gathering within the welcoming community of the Compagnie des Archers de l’Autize.
Double Gold on the Horizon? An Interview with Archery Legend Jean-Pierre Dubois
the archery world is abuzz with excitement for the upcoming National 3D Championship in Autize. This prestigious event promises nail-biting competition, but one question lingers: can last year’s champion, Ardin, secure a consecutive victory on his home turf?
to delve deeper into the unfolding drama, I sat down with archery icon and former Olympian, Jean-Pierre Dubois. Dubois, who has witnessed archery evolve over decades, provided us with his unique insights.
