Well done to the English Field Archery Team who won the Home Nations event at the British Field Championships 2018 hosted by Overton Black arrows at the Warren near Watership Down 26/27 May. Saturday started gloomy but warmed to a beautiful afternoon.

The promised rain overnight into Sunday failed to materialise leaving another hot and dry day. 24 marked and 24 unmarked targets completed the field and more than 130 archers took part. There was some fine shooting by many and this year’s Champions are as follows:
