Paris Olympics: When and Where to watch Indian squad in Archery events?

Paris: A day before the Opening Ceremony of the 2024 Paris Olympics, India’s archery squad will get into action with the preliminary rounds scheduled to begin on Thursday at Invalides. The archers will be the first to start India’s campaign in Paris.

India’s hunt for their first-ever Archery medal at the Olympics will begin with the Women’s Individual and team events while the men’s individual, men’s team and mixed team events are scheduled to take place later in the day.

Former World No.1 Deepika Kumari and Tarundeep Rai will be leading the young squad in what will be the duo’s fourth Olympics appearance. Dhiraj Bommadevara, Bhajan Kaur and Ankita Bhakat will all be making their Games debut.

The 2024 Paris Olympics are the first edition since London 2012 when India will field a full-strength squad in Olympic archery competitions.

The squad will be hoping to look past the controversy that saw their coach Baek Woong-Ki return to India over the denial of accreditation and hope to make a solid mark at the Games.

On Thursday, the archers will hope to achieve good rankings so that they can get comparatively easier opponents in the preliminary rounds.
