Mark Nesbitt misses out on Youth Olympics archery medal

Nesbitt was edged out 6-4 by home competitor Abbud Dayyan B Mohamed Jaffar in the junior mens' event.

The youngster will compete for Northern Ireland at the Commonwealth Games in India in October.

"I'm very disappointed because I felt the pressure a little bit," said the British team member.

"It was difficult with the home crowd and everyone cheering for the other guy and I didn't deal with that pressure very well at all," he said.

"I was a bit nervous coming into it because it is a really big event and something I really wanted to do well at.

"I have the Commonwealth Games later in the year so I will have to go home and regroup for a while now."

Nesbitt is one of 38 athletes competing for Team GB in 16 Olympic sports at the Games.
