Buckinghamshire Archery Association was pleased to host the SCAS Regional Clout Championships for the first time. Despite the challenges of local road closures, a village fete, a cycle race, M25 fires and bus replacement services, all attendees managed to arrive in time to start as planned. The weather was a changeable mixed bag- but with no rain and no real sun so a bonus for this time of year. Results and photos have been sent to attendees and will be available on the SCAS
