Send Bex to represent Aotearoa New Zealand in the Olympics!
Originally inspired by the movie The Hunger Games, Bex first picked up a recurve archery bow 5 1/2 years ago, she fell in love with the sport from day 1 and is now on the journey of her life.
She has represented Archery New Zealand at international competitions over the years. In April this year she won the female cadet recurve target event and the division 1 female recurve matchplay at Trans Tasman in Morwell, Australia. Bex followed this up in July by winning the female cadet recurve target event, the Oceania Commonwealth Championship female recurve and the Continental Qualifying Tournament at Oceania Championships in New Caledonia.
Now is Bex's time as she continues to excel in achieving top results whilst representing New Zealand on the international stage. She has both short and long term goals to represent New Zealand.
The web link, on the right, provides a detailed account of some of the highlights she has achieved this year alone.
Bex has put a lot of hard work into her training over the last few years and this is now paying off with her dreams of representing New Zealand becoming a reality. This page has been set up for anyone wishing to support Bex as she continues to chase her dreams.
Funds raised will be used for travel to international competitions, airfares, accommodation and entry fees.
