I only got home to find it in my inbox.

The previous informations that I had posted were about this competition, except by request of the convenor, I removed them because they were incorrect due to no dates being formally set at that time, and apparently would jepadise (spelling?) the event being held.:confused:

Ah, uni's. Sticklers for correctness. And it is jeopardise. :D

Will you get anyone entering? I will talk to Brett and another student member of my club.

We have several interested, however with a price tag of $50 (as most of our members are non AA), I fear it may be quite a turn-away factor. Car-pooling to Erina will be the way to go for transport so at least that will help keep costs down.

Wednesday & Thursday????
If I have a bow ill try and shoot it.

(My limb failed at Erina, then the following day Candy dropped a 60kg barbell on my bow smashing the riser, and limbs. Worst of all the Genuine! warranty claim on the failed limb is now gone, thus I am without a bow for however long?)

[Flehrad]

Ouch...... that is shockingly bad luck there Brett.

Yeah, it is a Wed and Thurs because it means the event will not clash with the Erina club activities on the usual weekends. It is a generic holiday for most of the uni's so the weekdays wouldn't be too much of a problem for the students.

Wow. Brett, that is bad news indeed. I saw from the results that you had problems last weekend, but a double whammy with the riser is terrible news.

Sad News...

Hi Don,



We have decided to cancel the university archery tournament scheduled for mid July due to a combination of insufficient interest and uncertainty in the aftermath of recent storms.



We are looking to re-schedule the event to a date in summer that would be suitable to university archers.



Thank you for your support for the event.

That is BS, I was looking forward to shooting it. You guys finally get a uni shoot organised, then they go and cancel on you.

[Flehrad]

Hmm, well, they said they needed ~20 people to shoot it. We had 5 people confirmed that wanted to shoot and upto another 4 who were interested... so obviously they weren't able to pull enough from the other uni's to fill that number.
