The Formentera Office of Sport has created an area at the athletics tracks where individuals can practise archery outdoors. The space is intended for young adepts of archery on the island who, this year for the first time, will compete in national categories. It will mean the archers do not have to travel to Eivissa for training.
Paula Ferrer, councillor of sports, highlighted "the club's fantastic work and the momentum enjoyed by traditionally less popular sports which offer a great alternative enriching and diversifying the local offer of sports".
Four Formentera archers have qualified for Spain's national championship scheduled 27 to 31 July in Madrid. The archers, aged 14 to 17, are Carla Santamaria, Manuela Choren, Alessandro Spagnuolo and Ahmed El Bouzrati.
