Team Uukha: titles, podiums and victories across France, UK and USA
A fortnight packed with sporting results for team Uukha!
Issy-les-Moulineaux Crowned French Team Champions 2026! 🏆
The French Team Championships are undoubtedly one of the strongest team competitions in Europe. Each year, the event brings together the best French archers, along with many international talents competing for French clubs, such as Reena Parnat, Marie Horáčková, Jonathan Vetter, and Elina Idensen.
After a final weekend marked by particularly hot conditions, Issy-les-Moulineaux claimed the title of 2026 French Team Champions 🥇
A huge source of pride for Uukha, as three of the four archers in the winning team are part of Team Uukha:
🎯 Florian Bossard, currently French No. 3
🎯 Antoine Michon
🎯 Alexandre Desemery, the newest member of the Team, who has already broken his personal best just a few weeks after switching to our equipment!

Congratulations also to Antoine Le Bars, the fourth member of this winning team.
A special mention as well to our ambassador Damien Pigeaud from Archers Rennais, who took 2nd place.
A wonderful reward for these talented archers, and another great demonstration of what can be achieved when hard work, consistency, passion, team spirit, and the right equipment all come together.
Congratulations again to the whole team! 🏹🔥
Marie Lejeune Takes 2nd Place at the Final Stage of the Wiawis French Tour
What a fantastic weekend for Marie and her full Uukha setup!
Match after match, she managed to impose herself in style, eliminating many of the best French archers and several international competitors along the way:
- Erika Jangnas, 6-0
- Elina Idensen, 6-0
- Aurane Lapouge, 7-3
- Victoria Sébastian, 6-4
She eventually lost 7-1 in the final against Natacha Wonneberger, who delivered a very strong match.
This second place, combined with the points earned during the two previous stages, allows Marie to finish 5th overall in this new circuit.
Well done, Marie!
Ollie Hicks Wins Stage 3 of the GB National Tour
Another superb stage for our young English ambassador, who claimed the win!
Ollie controlled the competition from qualifications - where he ranked first with 659 points - all the way through to the finals.
Unfortunately, a different outcome this time for René Bekker, winner of Stage 2, who finished 5th at this event.
In the women's competition, another outstanding performance from our new ambassador, Ilaria Knibb, who claimed 2nd place in this latest stage of the tour. 🥈
Another podium finish that currently places her 2nd in the overall standings, just behind Sarah Hubbard, who seems unstoppable this season and continues to break the World Record!
Congratulations Ilaria and Ollie! 🏹🔥
Across the Atlantic
A double win for our American ambassadors Medina Otajagic and Alex De Vera at the SoCal Showdown in California.
Both won their competitions - both in Barebow - once again demonstrating the performance of our Omega limbs across the Atlantic!
A huge congratulations to both of them!
Good job Medina and Alex !
