There was no doubt that the standard of shooting at the FAA Continental Championships was high and that the competition was tough. 17 Countries were vying for four places at the 2012 Olympics, and all were determined to win the ticket. In the RM category, 9th ranked William Frank came up against 24th ranked Kenya and took the match 6:6 on a single arrow shootout. He then progressed to the 1/8th against Bouchaib MACHI (MAR) and was eliminated 0:6. 7th ranked Graeme Lindner came up against 26th ranked Amber BALI (KEN) in the 1/16 and progressed to shoot against 10th ranked Mohamed JELLOUN (MAR). Graeme took the match, allowing him to progress to the quarter finals. He then faced second ranked Egyptian National Champion Ibrahim SABRY (EGY) and until the very last end they were tied.
