A childhood dream...

“Hello, my name is Maximilien Lejeune, I am 32 years old and I have been shooting archery since I was 13. I have been practicing at Arc Club Clusien since 2016.

When I was a child, I had fun making bows out of hazel wood because I live in the countryside and it's true that a little later I really wanted to try archery. 'bow. That’s how I started.”

The daily life of a champion

“I work on the CERN site in Geneva and I am responsible for chemical waste and a warehouse forklift operator. I balance my work and my passion.

I train 1-2 times a week when I can. We find the time when we want it.”
