2026 Summer League: 4th Competition – Jack Takes Victory in Closely Contested Windsor
The fourth round of the club’s 2026 Summer League took place last Sunday, with archers competing in a Windsor round.
The Windsor consists of nine dozen arrows shot over three distances, giving a total of 108 arrows. Each archer was able to select the Windsor distance most appropriate to their experience and ability.
The Summer League is decided using the Archery GB handicap system. This allows archers of differing abilities to compete on equal terms, with the final results based on how well each archer performs against their expected score rather than on their raw score alone.
The weather was considerably cooler than in recent weeks, which may well have contributed to some excellent scores being recorded. The top three were:
1st: Jack Roberts – 1489 points
2nd: Mark Burgess – 1482 points
3rd: John Taylor – 1436 points
The competition for first place was particularly close, with just seven points separating Jack and Mark. Both archers exceeded their expected scores, performances that should result in a significant improvement to their handicaps.
Congratulations to Jack, Mark and John, and well done to everyone who took part.
