An excellent day at the Coppell Cup after the two year break due to COVID restrictions.
it was great to meet up with friends old and new to celebrate the life of Brian Coppell.
The round shot was a York, and whilst the weather was beautiful, there was the occasional gust of wind, usually just as you released your arrow.
