Your board for 2023/24 is as follows:
Katherine Watson |
Katherine is an Australian based Kiwi archer. She has represented New Zealand at two World Cups. She loves travelling home to compete in archery tournaments, both for the competition and camaraderie. As an active member of Kew City Bowmen, in Melbourne, Katherine organises club events and mentors young archers.

Murray Prowse |
I started my journey with archery in 2014 and hopefully it's not one that will end soon. I'm currently the Vice President at River Glade Archers, a range captain and a coach. My background is Engineering, from building and installing plant and machinery through to managing Projects. This has given me the skills to successfully build good working relationships with multiple stakeholders and the ability to find solutions to situations as they come up. I look forward to supporting all our archers from club day shooters through to our International competitors and building a sustainable, vibrant sport.

Mykel Turner |
Hi, I’m Mykel and I currently live in Auckland after growing up in Tauranga. I shoot competitively and can often be found training and coaching at Auckland Archery Club. My specialty lies in Business Management as my main job. I have been a retail manager of multiple stores over the last couple years. This has allowed me to develop skills for leadership and communication. I aim to use these skills to help improve Archery in New Zealand by bridging archers and the organisation together.

January's meeting was a strategy meeting with Lindsay Corbin (SportNZ) rather than a Board meeting, so was not minuted
