STEPHEN CLIFTON WINS NEW ZEALAND’S
FIRST EVER WORLD TARGET
CHAMPIONSHIP MEDAL.

Hard on the heels of the successes of the New
Zealand Women’s Compound Team in Antalya and
the Men’s Compound Team in Shanghai, Stephen
Clifton has added to the country's growing 2009
medal tally by taking out the bronze medal for Men’s
Individual Compound at Ulsan, Korea. This is the first
ever medal won by a Kiwi at the World
Championships. Individual arrow scores are shown in
the box at the right, reproduced by courtesy of FITA.
More detailed information is contained in Carole
Hicks’ Reports from Ulsan, which appear immediately
after this page.
By virtue of his success Stephen has improved his
World Ranking from 17th to 7th place.

Archery and the NZ Media

When interviewed for the FITA website after winning New Zealand's first ever medal at the World Championships,
Steve Clifton is quoted as follows:
“Stephen CLIFTON (NZL) - bronze I shot really well in the 3rd and 4th end of the bronze medal
match. I actually told myself to relax and have fun and it worked out much better than when I was
worrying about it. I am sorry for Jose who has been now two times 4th at the world
championships, but this is archery. You shoot for yourself.

I hope it puts somehow archery on the map in New
Zealand, that it triggers some media interest. I hope we
can build on this for the future with our national
competitions.”
Unfortunately Steve’s plea fell on deaf ears and there was
practically no reaction from the media, though to be fair there has
been a small amount of belated reporting.
Chris Gorman emailed TVNZ 2-1/2 hours before their sports show
went to air to no avail. As he dryly observes ―on TVNZ’s Qantas
Award Winning Sports Page it was noted that the partner of a US
Grid Iron player was pregnant‖!!! Is this really what the NZ Public
want to know? As Chris further observed - ―well, she is the highest
paid model.‖
Archery NZ had contacted the print and electronic media in Auckland with a release and details of the team's
arrival but to no avail. It was only when SPARC contacted the NZ Herald that there was any response.

More from Congress

FITA Announced: ―Congress yesterday ratified the
agreement between FITA and the International
Paralympic Committee for the governance of para-
archery and therefore, a new Para-Archery Committee
was created with the following persons elected: Marco
CARPPIGNANO (ITA), Rita VAN DRIEL (NED), Carole
HICKS (NZL) and Hans-Peter WERLEN (SUI). The
chairwoman of the former transition committee, Ann
WEBB (GBR) was appointed as Honorary Chairwoman
of the Committee—a well deserved recognition for her
many years involvement in para-archery.‖

FITA also honoured several of its outstanding
volunteers and officials by the presentation of FITA
Plaquettes. Among the award winners was Carole
Hicks (NZL) who was presented with a Bronze
Plaquette.

found in the FITA office, thank you Chantal, so I was able to
change, it did fit! So in the afternoon I was able to assist with
the actual gear inspection. For compound bows we did test
all three electronic scales used and found they read the
same. Thus any archer drawing over 60 lb was asked to
reduce the bow weight, no testing with a second set of
scales. With compounds one judge did the bow weight, the
other the arrows, etc. There were a few compound archers
who were requested to reduce the draw weight of their bows
and several archers were asked to name or rename their
arrows. I could have been back in NZ! One additional check
judges had to make though was on the uniforms the team
members and officials were wearing including hats.

Sergio held a meeting of judges at the beginning and end of
each day in the judges’ room. The early meeting was to
assign duties for the day and to ensure we all knew exactly
what was expected of us. The later meeting was to debrief
the day and check hotel leaving time for the coming morning

flight left just before midnight and we had an 11-hour journey
to Singapore en route to Shanghai. We met the South African

Shanghai. The trip from the airport to the city where we were
staying was very interesting. The main roads to the airport
are very well laid out with manicured gardens along the way.

venue which was in a huge soccer stadium. Most days it was
extremely humid inside the stadium with low cloud cover/

People were actually living here! Barbara & Mandy ready to start unofficial practice
(Continued on page 17)
After settling into our awesome rooms, with a king single bed
each and all sorts of technical gadgets, it was time for dinner.
And what a choice, especially for those people who liked
seafood! I must admit I was expecting a variety of rice dishes
to be available but was surprised at the variety of foods.
Another favourite with the group was the chocolate fondue
fountain! Unfortunately Mandy had to abstain from this while
competing, as a bet with Shaun, who proceeded to drink a
glass of chocolate from the fountain in front of her! Well done
Mandy for your will-power during this bet. After a couple of
days it was interesting to see the sign put up by the ice-
cream; ―Athlete do not edible‖; this was to avoid the archers
eating the combination of seafood and then ice-cream which
can make a person very sick apparently.

A quick tour of the 5-star hotel gave a chance to have a peek
at the facilities available for our use. No doubt some of us
would make good use of the pool, gym and sauna/massage
facilities during our stay. During the week we got some of the
hotel staff to take us up to the 37th floor where we were able

intensity around the stadium later in the morning especially
during the second distance, with signs blowing over along the
fence by target one. The balloons/wind socks around the
stadium were blowing rapidly from side to side for quite a
while and as a result the scores were down this distance
compared with the previous one.

For our lunch break we decided to head back to the hotel for
some food although we had ordered a packed lunch, which
turned out to be a MacDonalds which was disgusting!! After a
break of nearly two hours we were back on the field again to
shoot 50M & 30M. The wind built up again in intensity and as
a result the scores for the women were well down on what we
could all shoot, with Mandy and Barbara tying on 1293 and
me on 1330. As a team we ranked 5th out of six teams. After
a very long day of shooting we were glad to get back to the
hotel for dinner before retiring for an early night.

Tony, Shaun & Steve at unofficial practice
After our first unofficial practice Mandy, Barbara and I took a
hair-raising taxi ride to the Yu Yuan Gardens in a bustling
tourist area of Shanghai with what seemed to be thousands

of people! In a city of over 20 million people I must admit that
I found this quite daunting coming from a town of only about

4,500 people! This wasn’t helped by the amazing thunder
storm that we experienced with torrential rain for the rest of
the afternoon. Talk about a city of umbrellas.

Africa in the semis to go through to the Gold/Silver match
against Mexico, scheduled for Sunday morning.

Sunday dawned overcast and windy. Because of the threat of
the typhoon the organisers decided to move the finals from
the original venue at the riverside back to the stadium. The
guys headed away on the early bus for their practice before
their match and left us to have a leisurely breakfast and to
take the later bus to the stadium. Just as we were about to
board the bus we received an SOS asking for one of us to be
their agent. A quick trip back to our hotel room and I was
ready with my uniform to act as agent for them. This enabled
Mandy and Barbara to head up into the stands to watch the
match while I waited around for it to get underway.

We headed out in preparation (me to the blinds and the guys
to the shooting line) only to be told that due to the TV
scheduling the match would be postponed until later in the
morning! Not good for archers already psyched up and ready
to go. I know that both Steve and Shaun were keen to get the
match underway as neither of them was very well at all. After
a couple of hours delay we were all ready to go again.

I must say that it was very nerve wracking sitting in the blinds
watching those arrows hit the target. It was a great effort from

the guys to stay in the lead most of the way through the
match, only missing out on the last end by one point to win
the SILVER medal! Congratulations to Steve, Tony and
Shaun for a tremendous effort against top competition.

food to choose from but still not of the same standard as the While we were waiting in Singapore I received a text from
Mandy to let us know that their flight from Shanghai was
delayed and they weren’t sure whether they would catch our
flight to Auckland in time. Despite watching out for them
before we boarded there was still no sign of them. Once we
had taken off and were able to move around I went searching
and found that they had managed, with the help of airport
staff and a very fast bike ride through the airport, to get onto
the plane in time before take-off. It just remained to be seen
whether their cases were also on the flight! Much to their
delight they were there when we landed in Auckland. From
there it was over to the domestic terminal for our flights home
after a long couple of weeks.
