It was a great experience and many memories were made! The coaching staff and athletes were proud to represent the Zone 7 area! This team has been practicing together since December 1 when the team was selected at tryouts. The entire team came to Vegreville four times to have group practices at the Vegreville Wildlife Federation archery range to bond with each other and to find out what they needed to work on. Some of our athletes have only started archery in the Fall of 2019 and some have been doing it for years.
