Medieval experience

Katrina Kruse, Australia’s leading Horse Archery Instructor, from Medieval Horse Sports Australia, last weekend hosted an Intro into Advanced Horse Archery clinic at the Grenfell Showground with a number of locals and visitors taking part in the two day event.

Horse Archery Australia, a division of Medieval Horse Sports Australia, teaches one of the most fun sports in the world that you can learn, this equestrian skill is now growing rapidly in Australia and around the world.

Event organiser, Ashleigh Leibick of Grenfell, said it was a pleasure to be instructed by Katrina who is so experienced and accomplished in her discipline.

"I thought Katrina was very professional and I would just like to thank everyone who took part in this valuable and enjoyable training opportunity," said Ashleigh.

Based in Brisbane, Katrina travels the country instructing and educating, she also runs competitions up to international level.

“It's a sport that does not require that 'special' breed of horse, or that expensive specialised tack.

“In fact, the only rule for the type of equipment that can be used is the type of bow used in competition, basically a stick and a string,” said Katrina

“It is a rapidly growing sport which has become popular with kids, mums, dads, in fact anyone of any age can participate in horse archery,“ she added
