Arc Club Gessien in Nîmes

Every year for about ten years now, club members have travelled in January to the international competition in Nîmes.
This renowned competition attracts more than 1,000 competitors from all over France and around the world. The world’s best come to battle it out.
Our members compete with varying degrees of success against tough opposition.
But this year, in the U15 recurve category, Hector Campanelli made it onto the podium, winning the bronze medal.
Eighth after qualifications, he faced the top-ranked archer in a head-to-head match and knocked him out; in the next round he was beaten, then drew his following match and won by a few millimeters on the shoot-off arrow.
A big well done and our warmest congratulations.
