On Saturday, November 5, Archery Guyana introduced the sport of archery to Qayyim Academy, located in Uitvlugt, West Coast Demerara.
With the goal of becoming the next school to register an Archery Club, Principal of the school, Mrs Bibi Romena Constantine-Mohamed, had reached out to the federation, and ‘the deed was finally done’ on Saturday last. Discussions were held between the Principal and Head Coach Nicholas Hing on the sport and its various forms, with the ultimate goal of Olympic recurve archery being introduced to the school.
With the help of Archery Guyana’s archer/instructor Saeed Karim, Head Coach Nicholas Hing gave the scores of excited children (and their Headmistress) the chance to try out for the first time how to use the bow and arrow.
