great event, good general admission seats, good competition
We were 10 minutes late for the start time and there was a long line up to get into the stadium. The security check (only 2 entrances for this) was backed up. Then going to the seats, only one section was opened with only one entryway providing access to the seats. Eventually the 2nd entryway was opened to get rid of the congestion. The weather didn't help any as it was raining. Then there was a 30 minutes delay in starting the finals and 10 minutes into the finals, the electronic scoreboard died and they were trying to get it back up. All in all, not an impressive event, with the lack of coordination of some of the basic requirements.
We sat at centre field. We had to watch the game on screen as the distance between archer and target seemed too long. It was raining, and the kicker was, they took our Umbrella-it was not allowed. We left half way as by that time we were soaked. Why did they not advertise the rules about umbrellas.
Excellent but a giant TV screen is needed on south side of field - when seated on east side - for close up shots of arrow position on targets.
No bad seats at Varsity. Great event and skills! Would definitely attend again if a games comes back!
