YOUNG archers from Selby almost swept the board at the Yorkshire Indoor Championships.

The team of four from Selby Archery Club won three top trophies.

Selby's team of Andrew Willets, 17, Thomas Spence, 13, George Colletti, 14, and Ryan Hughes, 12, were crowned Yorkshire team champions.

Andrew picked up a second trophy when he became overall county champion in the under-18 recurve shooting section.

And Selby's Georgina Hughes, 11, one of the youngest competitors, was overall champion in the under-13 girls' section.

Longmans Hill School teacher Neville Lewis, a coach at the Selby club, said: "The youngsters have done us proud. They were superb.

"Selby is one of the biggest junior clubs in Yorkshire and we are now very strong in all departments.

"We have excellent facilities, with indoor and outdoor ranges, and coaches who work constantly with the juniors.

"Archery is becoming very popular in Selby and I'm now running courses for pupils at Longmans Hill."
