Bangladesh became champions in the third South Asian Championship with six golds at BKSP today.

They notched the championship by beating superpower India, who acquired four golds. This is the very first time that Bangladesh have won any gold in this tournament.

 

The previous South Asian archery championship was held over a decade ago in 2008 where Bangladesh failed to get any golds.
