Got Coverage?

The biggest question we are asked is if the Paralympics will be on TV.  Unfortunately, the answer is no. :(  But here's the rundown of Eric's competition, times and best chances to see results and maybe a video or two.

How the competition works:  All 32 archers in my division shoot 72 arrows for a ranking score on Aug. 30th.  We will then be placed in a single elimination bracket where we shoot head-to-head until the Gold medal. 
The Ranking round is closed to the public so there won't be any video but the results should post live.  The eliminations start on the 1st of September and will hopefully be broadcast on one of the outlets below.  If I make it to the end I will be shooting for the Gold on the 3rd.

Social Media

Eric will be updating his fanpage as much as he can.  I will be updating the blog often.
Eric's Facebook fanpage can be found at:  www.facebook.com/bennettarchery

We don't know how much archery will be shown :\

Again, we don't know how much archery they will show.
