A hundred merry men visit Las Americas

Robin Hood from the 1973 Disney movie
The borough of Arona hosted the most important archery competition in the Canarian Archipelago last weekend. Around a hundred archers from eleven different archery clubs participated in the “Campeonato Absoluto de Tiro con Arco de Canarias” which was held in the Olympic Stadium in Playa de Las Americas on Saturday 22nd and Sunday 23rd July. Archery is a growing sport in the islands and the Canarian archery Federation is the fastest growing such group in the whole of Spain.

(If they got the archers together with the "Juego de Palo" (Stick Fighters - a la Little John) and the Historical Reenactment crew, that would be exciting! :)
