So that's it, all shot for the Summer League 2019. We had 44 archers submit an amazing 278 rounds (or should that be 278 amazing rounds).
Remember we will be celebrating the final results and giving out the awards at the Outdoor Championship on Sunday 15th September. Make sure you are there, if you haven't signed up yet contact Jem Mason (
I haven't published the final standings as I'm saving that for Sunday. You can still check your overall progress throughout the league by looking at the 'round ratings' on the final shooting report, the lower the number the better you shot.

Hello to all - great news.
It's been confirmed today that Sport England will be supporting us with funds of £90,000. The following script is to appear in the A&T in early September, so watch out for the news item and take a look at what it's done to our thermometer on the website!!
And don't forget, whether it's £10, £20 or £40 it's dead easy to sponsor a plank.
Sway Bowmen get great support from Sport England.
Sway Bowmen who are raising money for a new clubhouse have just had notice of a huge injection of funds from Sport England, who confirmed at the end of August that £90,000 has been awarded to the project, this brings the total of funds raised to £107,424.
With further applications made for the balance of funding required to meet the £150,000 target, the club is now in a position to consider the start of the build process which is likely to commence in the new year.
Simon Curtis - club chairman, confirmed the news to the A&T and noted that the support from Sport England has been critical to the success of the project and will hopefully encourage others to make donations. " A new clubhouse is so important to the future health and development of the club; allowing us to grow and retain membership and at the same time offering secure, quality facilities which will allow members to be coached in the winter months and to have a proper meeting aand social facilities all year round in a comfortable environment."
