Cardiff Archers Friendly Open Series
Cardiff Archers Athletics host a Friendly Junior Open every term for our youngest members (U9s, U11s & U13s – school years 2-7). These events are to encourage competition in a fun and friendly environment.
These competitions will not be eligible for Power of 10 rankings, but are in place for our young athletes to gain experience of competing before stepping up to our UK YDL League teams. Athletes from other South/East Wales clubs are also welcome to compete.
