I participated in both events of archery last year for the first time. I took up the sport 3 years ago and it was exciting to be part of an international event for my newby career in a new sport for me. the experience was wonderful, and I met neat people, some of whom I still communicate with every once in a while. when the new registration for this year was opened, I signed up right away in February and booked my hotel and plane fare. now I am on pins and needles wondering how its going to work out July 31. even if the games are held, I am concerned if the flights will be on or not, if the border is open, if I have to quarantine for 2 weeks when I get back home, etc. etc. will wait and see. anyways, the experience was great, people awesome, food wonderful and I can't say enough good things about the whole experience which is why i am hoping to go again without issues. thanks for letting us...

When I went to the opening ceremonies this year I literally was in tears watching the flag ceremony and all of the competitors walk on and off the field. My father and his best friend have been competing in the world senior men's softball games for years and they always come home...

I know a number of Senior athletes that live east of the Mississippi River, who would love to compete. I personally would like to put together a couple softball teams to represent the Academy and perhaps the Military and Air Force Academies, as well. I need a couple things, which I am sure you must have. (1) a few brochures to send to all three academies about the Games and (2) a video that could be placed on our monthly Wavetops, as well as other the Academy Web Site. Keep up the great work, and I will see if we can get a few more teams...
