EFAA & GNAS Working together at Northampton

English Bowman · Cub Poster

I have often wished that the various archery societies in the UK could work together rather than be at each other's throats which is often the case. Well I'd like to say well done to the Northampton GNAS and EFAA field archers.
Last weekend was the GNAS Northampton and Open Field Championships, which was held on Black Eagle Field Archers ground. As Black Eagles are an EFAA club they deserve credit, for not only allowing a "rival" society to use their land, but also for helping them put on a brilliant shoot. So thanks to Northampton field archers of both societies. (And I'm not ignoring NFAS, but they weren't there) I hope that this shows that field archers can all work together for the good of the sport, and that this sort of think happens more often.

Also credit is due to the two archers that went through with the Mankini Challenge. If you want to know what that was all about then look at this Mankini Challenge (Don't look if you are sensitive, there are pictures of men in mankinis, and little else!) I think that they have now raised over £1400 for charity. Well done guys, although I don't think that men being out in public dressed like this is something that should happen more often... or at all!
