INTERVIEW: ELLA GIBSON

WHO HAVE YOU LEARNED FROM, AND WHAT DID YOU LEARN?

I have learnt so much from so many different people over the years. I learnt some of my foundations from the coaches at my club – Steph and Dan Gill – and even more elements of my technique from Jon Nott. I have learnt about my kit from so many people like Simon Scott, Shaun Teasdale, James Mason, Greg Poole and others. There isn’t one person that has taught me everything, but rather a huge group effort that has shaped the archer I am. One of the biggest things I have learnt is actually from Simon, Jon and myself. That’s to trust myself and my instincts, and that whenever I do that, I will be successful.
