One of them, Lucy O’Sullivan, ranked fifth in ladies’ compound in Great Britain and Northern Ireland, is already a Grand Master and has therefore qualified for both Britain and Jersey.
The other three, Michael Coward, Geoff Hairon and Steve Roche, are looking to improve their standings in the Grand National Archery Society’s rankings with Coward listed highest (40th) in the men’s recurve.
The competition, organised under the auspices of the Archery Association of India, has attracted entries from around the world and after practice day on Monday will last week-long, from Tuesday onwards.
