This weekend, the <a href="https://www.archysport.com/2024/10/le-genest-saint-isle-soon-a-field-shooting-association-with-laval-sport/" title="Le Genest-Saint-Isle. Soon a field shooting association with Laval. Sport”>USG archery organized a field shooting competition in Echologia, a discipline little known to the public.
Field shooting consists of shooting at targets of different sizes, placed at distances ranging from 5 to 60 meters on a course in natural terrain such as that of Echologia.
explains Eric Salmon, co-president of the association.
57 archers from the Great West came for this premiere. A great satisfaction for the Gennes team, seeing the fruition of the efforts made over several months in this organization.
By next spring, a new association called Groupe Mayennais Campagne 3D will be created between the Laval club and the Genest club. Led by members of the two structures, its objective will be the practice of field shooting in Echologia and will be open to archers from Mayenne clubs.
The positive feedback from this weekend’s competition allows us to be confident in the future,”
poursuit Eric Salmon.
The USG archery club, teeming with ideas to attract new archers, established, during its last meeting, a schedule of sporting and fun activities on the various calendar holidays (Halloween, Christmas, Kings, etc.) and others .
