To wrap up a kyudo year that wasn’t exactly easy, a small Christmas archery contest was held during the last practice session before the Christmas break. Thorsten Lietz had specially crafted three Christmas targets, and the prizes were chocolate Santa Clauses. Matthias Orschel-Brieden won first place. Three archers with the same score had to compete in a tiebreaker for second place. In the end, Hannelore Heid-Dauner’s arrow was closest to the Christmas tree ornament in the center of the target.

We’re looking forward to a great year of Kyudo in 2022, when the club will celebrate its 20th anniversary. Various events are already planned to mark this joyful occasion. We all hope that the COVID-19 situation will allow us to celebrate the event as it deserves.

We wish you a great start and all the best for 2022!
