Archery: More success for Sleights at national championships

Lesley also set course record in field round

Manx archers Lesley and Rodger Sleight have been putting in more top performances at the English Field Archery National Championships.

It was their first time taking part in the tournament which was held near Loughborough in Leicestershire.

The event, which was held over two days, involved 28 targets each day with four arrows shot at each.

Distances ranged from seven yards to 80 yards.

Lesley won the ladies adult traditional recurve class and claimed a course record in the field round which was a season best score.

Meanwhile, Rodger took a well-earned second place in the veteran mens' traditional recurve class.
