Surely as a visitor they would just win the visitors medal and would not have been eligible for the trophy. This seems to be standard practice. I think it is more likely that archer X from Lincs saw archer Y from Notts and thought that his trophy was gone. Instead of just accepting that the guy from Notts would be treat as a visitor a fuss was made
As the hosting club we are very happy to see visitors at all our tournaments and in a County type competition Malcolm would put on as many separate classes as were required. (providing it was approved by County of course)
BTW will Ashley be eligible for the Novice trophy as he is shooting his Compound for the first time in competition I believe
