The Chinese Enterprise Archery League marks its 6th year Archers actively aiming for 2024 Paris Olympics
The 6th Chinese Enterprise Archery League is set to commence on April 13th. This season will feature six enterprise teams along with the Chinese Taipei Archery Association's youth team, making for an exciting 11-week event. Ahead of the official start tomorrow, a special exchange match between star archers and the Olympic training team was organized today, bringing together Taiwan's top archers at the National Taiwan Sport University to actively prepare for 2024 Paris Olympics.
This season, the six corporate teams participating are New Taipei Caesar Park, Hsinchu City JSL Group, NU-House Construction Group, Humble House Group, Taichung Bank Eagles and Changhua Bank. Additionally, the Chinese Taipei Archery Association's youth team (CTAA Youth Team) comprises young elite archers selected through the 2024 talent identification program. Exciting games will be held every month, providing archery fans with ample opportunities to enjoy the action.
This year's League promises to be even more intense than before. In the previous season, Changhua Bank made it to the championship final in just their second year, facing off against Humble House Group. Although they fell short of clinching the championship, they are returning stronger with archers Chiu Yi-ching and Lee Tsai-chi from the 2024 Paris Olympics training team, along with Yu Guan-lin, a member of the Taiwan archery team in 2016 Rio Olympics. With this lineup, they are determined to vie for the overall championship once again. Hsinchu City JSL Group made a significant addition to their roster this year, drafting six players at once. Notably, Lin Chia-yu, a former CTAA Youth Team archer in the 5th Chinese Enterprise Archery League and a double gold medalist in the 2023 Archery Asia Cup, joins the team. Teaming up with Lin Zih-siang, an archer from the 2024 Paris Olympics training team, Lin Chia-yu aims to secure further glory. Additionally, well-known archers such as 2020 Tokyo Olympics men's team silver medalists Wei Chun-heng and Deng Yu-cheng, 2016 Rio Olympics women's team silver medalists Tan Ya-ting and Lei Chien-ying, and 2019 Naples Universiade gold medalist Peng Chia-mao will compete for their respective teams. All are invited to witness the high-level archery action at the venue.
The Sports Administration emphasized that the Chinese Enterprise Archery League is the pinnacle of domestic archery. In recent years, besides funding event organization, the Chinese Taipei Archery Association has identified promising young archers and provided financial support to assemble a youth team. By competing together and using matches as training, the association nurtures future national team archers. This season's League will offer thrilling matches for archery enthusiasts throughout the year. Even those unable to attend can watch through television or online broadcasts.
