Tournament Shirt Update:
Thanks to our AAE sponsorship and Arizona's own Antigua®:
Shirts have been upgraded to a high quality
Antigua® brand shirt in their Desert Dry™ fabric with embroidered
tournament logo. Men's style will be a polo style and women's
style is a partial zip up tunic. Both in short sleeves.
There is no silk
screening, so there will be no archer names on the shirt back this
year. If those of you who pre-purchased a tee shirt would like
to cancel, that is okay, but we hope that you will love these shirts
when you see them. We are honoring the $20 pre-purchased tee
shirt price, but they will be sold at the field for $25/shirt.
(Note these shirts retail for around $65 in shops)
We will also have
embroidered hats this year.
