This year's Swedish National Championships were hosted by us in Issha Kyudo Kai, and as the home team we did pretty well.
In the individual event the club carried home both the gold and silver medals through Knut Högvall and Ingemar Karlsson, respectively. This made Knut the first person to win the national championship title three times, and also the first person to manage defending his title from the previous year.
In the team event, Knut and Ingemar together with Jörgen Falk got the bronze medal.
In the total score for the Swedish Cup 2018, the gold medal was also won by Knut Högvall.
Congratulations to all involved!
(In an unusual turn of events, to say the least, representatives from the Swedish national sports organisation turned up to conduct an unannounced doping test. Four people were chosen to give samples. We're hoping nothing untoward will turn up in the results. ;) )
