Summary

The Royal Company of Archers, Scotland’s historic King’s bodyguards, kicked off Royal Week with tradition and flair—guarding the monarch while also competing in centuries-old archery contests like the Edinburgh, Selkirk, and Musselburgh Arrows. Led since 2014 by the Duke of Buccleuch, they crowned winners who proudly display their trophies, including the chance to add their own motto. The grand finale? The King’s Prize in Holyrood Park, followed by a ceremonial march into the Palace. With chapters in London and a growing global interest in archery, the Company also supports community health through its charitable trust—proving they’re guardians of both crown and cause.
