Archers from Club Deportivo San Crispín of Antigua opened their ninth campaign at the Indoor Archery World Series across October 30, October 31, and November 1, ondafuerteventura.es reported.
The club traveled with a three-archer delegation featuring veteran competitor Mick Reliham, debutant José Luis Barrero Pérez, and Tigana Florizoone Vera, who was recently named to the Canary Islands high-performance athlete roster.
Results proved uneven for the Fuerteventura club as competitors confronted unfamiliar venue lighting alongside equipment setbacks during the three-day international opener.
José Luis Barrero Pérez competed in the men’s U21 recurve division, stepping up above his usual category. He missed the cut to finish 38th after struggling with unusual venue illumination.
Mick Reliham overcame similar lighting challenges to clear the initial cut in the +50 compound division. Equipment trouble subsequently forced the veteran competitor to withdraw before the elimination rounds, resulting in a 15th-place finish.
Tigana Florizoone Vera advanced past the qualification cut without major difficulty in the women’s U21 compound category despite managing a minor equipment issue.
Her run ended in a narrow elimination match against Croatian archer Ivana Mavracic. The result placed Florizoone 11th overall in her division.
The San Crispín delegation returned to Fuerteventura to begin training for the second leg of the Indoor Archery World Series, scheduled for November 20, 21, and 22 in Luxembourg.
Club representative Xavi Florizoone detailed the team’s opening performance during an interview on Deportes de Onda Fuerteventura, highlighting institutional backing from the Antigua town council’s sports department and the Fuerteventura cabildo’s ADI program for island sports development.
