An 18-year-old archer from Shepperton will compete with Team GB at this summer s Tokyo Olympics after a year s delay to the games saw him claim a spot in the men s team. James Woodgate took up archery at the age of seven, and is the youngest member of Great Britain s Archery squad destined to compete at Tokyo this summer. He was previously named as a reserve for the games, but after they were postponed for a year amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic he managed to clinch a place in the first team. In 2020, Woodgate won the ‘Most Potential’ award in the TASS Stars Awards, and he has since earned his Olympic qualification.
