This week saw archers tackle the black and white of what is the Worcester round as part of the scratch league and it threw up seven personal bests. The best of them coming from Ed Bennettby a massive hundred points (other personal bestsfromDave Moore, Karen Lott, Colin Moore, Adam Wright, Rhys Moore and Charlotte Harris).Sarah Rigby retired due to a shoulder injury and with the team doctor (Frank Vaughan) unavailable, due to him having a lazy time in Vistana Resort Fountain in Orlando, Rigby had to withdraw from the competition.

In the gents recurve Dave Moore showed his supremacy to top the podium from the hard battling Ed Bennett and Marcus Boyd who fought hard all morning just to be edged in the last six arrows while in the ladies recurve Karen Lott started well and edged out a three point lead this was a lead she wouldnt lose from Barbara Harris.

Gents compound was a close fought battle for the top spot between Peter Mumford and the ever improving Colin Moore this battle saw the lead change six times with Mumford finally getting the top step of the podium by two points after Moore had a miss in the end to gift the win with Billy Lightfoot picking up the last spot on the podium. In the ladies Joy Gough topped the podium after Sarah Rigby had to retire.

As for the Juniors, Rhys Moore once again put in a great start and edged out a lead he wouldnt lose with the main battle being for the second spot between Adam Wright and Bradley Layton this battle saw the two swap the lead eight times with Wright pushing a three points lead to get second and Layton picks up the third run on the podium.
