Archery Guyana's Continental Judge reports on successful 2024 Pan American Archery Championships
Tuesday, Apr 30Archery Guyana’s Continental Judge, Mr. Nicholas Hing, has reported that the 2024 Pan American Archery Championships in Medellín, Antioquia, Colombia, held from April 9 to 14, 2024, was a total success.
"The World Archery Americas team of 16 judges from across the region, conducted the competition with extreme professionalism under the leadership of WAA Secretary General, International Judge and Technical Delegate Sergio Font, International Judges Lais Nunez (Bra), Guille Pistache (Mex) and Ana Luiza De Mesquita (Bra), along with the many others, including retired International Judge and Continental Judge Bob Pian (USA). I was immediately accepted and shown friendship and support by everyone in this diverse group of judges from different regions of the Americas. I have learned so much from each of them and from the experience, since this was my very first International event as a Continental Judge." Hing stated.
"The experience was an unforgettable one, as the Pan American Championships attracts the biggest names in archery, many of them Olympians, and many more prospective Olympians. As judges, we always have to make sure we are aware and updated on any and all rule changes so as to carry out our duties effectively and efficiently. Judges meetings were held every morning before the start of the day’s matches to delegate each judge’s responsibility and we were divided into teams for: equipment checks, line judges, target judges and scorers." He also said.
The Board of Directors of Archery Guyana again extends its heartfelt congratulations to Mr. Hing on his selection to have represented Guyana on the international stage.
