MIKE SHEPHERD 1931-2021
Mike Shepherd, former president of GNAS and longtime chairman of Cheshire Archery Association has died age 90.
He started in archery 45 years ago and devoted much of his life and time to the sport. He held many posts in his club, Cheshire, and at GNAS (now AGB), and was the co-editor of Archery UK magazine for many years.
Mike was an avid field and target archer who always loved to help others and inspired so many archers to achieve their potential. He had a wicked sense of humour and always had a joke to tell. He always had time for a chat and encouragement at tournaments and never failed to find something positive in the competition. His many endeavours and achievements are celebrated by his club, his county and UK Archery as a whole.
He is survived by his wife Ann, who worked with him in many capacities.
