Brittany Youth Archery: Saint-Pol-de-Léon Success in Quéven

Saturday January 31 and Sunday February 1, 2026, seven young archers from the Compagnie d’Arc took the road to Quéven to participate in the Brittany Youth 18m Shooting Championship.

This regional competition brought together more than 150 archers from 37 Breton clubs. Saturday was devoted to qualifying shooting, while Sunday gave way to the final stages, with individual matches in the morning and team events in the afternoon.

The palmarès

Individually, Margot Le Braz (M18) finished in 10 place, Paul Yvin (M15) also ranked 10, while Théo Pavis (M21) climbed to the third step of the podium. Among the teams, the M18/M21 boys in recurve arch – Titouan Peden, Rayen Yahyaoui, Enzo and Théo Milin – achieved a remarkable performance. Beaten in the semi-final, they were able to bounce back to win in the small final against Dinan (6-2) and secure a good third place. The indoor season now ends for young people.

Regional competitions continue this weekend for seniors, with the participation of the senior men’s recurve team in the regional team championship in Plogastel-Saint-Germain.
