GREAT DAY OUT AT PEACE INTERNATIONAL ARCHERY IN ROCKHAMPTON

GREAT DAY OUT AT PEACE INTERNATIONAL ARCHERY IN ROCKHAMPTON Again this year Peace International Archery Club at Rockhampton was host to the Cerebral Palsy League Archery Tournament. Each year CP support organisations around Rockhampton come together with their clients to compete in an archery tournament called the Cerebral Palsy League Archery Tournament. Hosted by Peace International Archery Club at Rockhampton competitors compete for perpetual trophies, medals and prizes followed by a BBQ This event has been held for the last 5 years and each year more and more people are taking part as more carers are introduced to the concept of archery for their clients. Each year around 200 people participate and it is hoped to expand the event around Queensland and ultimately around Australia. The tournament organiser John Hans commented – The enjoyment I get from the faces of these guy’s, when they release their first arrow, is amazing, they have accomplished something people never thought would be possible, proving that given the chance people with CP can accomplish more than we give them credit.
