Sahil Sahota

Short Biography:

I was born and raised in Calgary, Alberta, and started archery at 11 years old after asking my dad for a bow for my birthday. I was inspired by movies that showed how awesome archery could be. Before starting olympic recurve, I had shot some compound and traditional archery. I started competing in recurve in 2020, but a shoulder injury stopped me from shooting tournaments until 2022 with my first outdoor shoot as a cadet. I joined the Next-Gen Program in late 2022, and have been shooting since. I have been to 3 USAT events and 2 international competitions since joining the program, and I am super excited to continue to develop as an archer in the future.
