Permaul and DeAbreu represented Guyana in back-to-back Archery competitions in Medellin

Permaul indicated, "My qualifier was underwhelming. It seems on the international circuit, it takes more time to acclimate. The next step is to at least shoot the minimum score (640) for the Olympics."
DeAbreu said, “I Found it difficult to get in a groove as I had a minor injury to my draw finger, going forward, I’ll create a more specific training routine and try to free up more time allocated to training mentally and physically.
The second competition they both shot in was the Pan American Championships from April 9-16, 2024. They both gained byes to the 1/24 bracket with their ranking scores at number 33.
