Personal lifeVennard was born in Exmouth, Devon, England and now lives in Newtownards, County Down, Northern Ireland.[1] She has osteoarthritis in her spine, causing her constant pain,[2][3] and fibromyalgia which has resulted in her having mobility and balance problems.[4] She has a BTEC qualification in Medical Laboratory Science.[1] CareerVennard started her career as a recurve archer in 1997[7] and began representing Northern Ireland in 1998.[1] However, her osteoarthritis - for which she underwent two spinal operations - severely curtailed her success, so she switched to compound archery around 2006.[7] She went on to compete in the British Indoor and Euronations competitions for Northern Ireland between 2007 and 2010.[5] After being classified as a disabled archer in 2009, she joined the British Paralympic archery squad.[4][5] She won gold medals in the team recurve events at the 2011 Stoke Mandeville Open and at the 2011 Para-Archery World Ranking Event, held in Nymburk, Czech Republic. At the 2011 World Championships, held in Turin, Italy, she was part of the British trio that finished 5th in the team recurve.[1][6] She was selected as part of a squad of thirteen British archers to compete in her first Paralympics at the 2012 Summer Games held in London, United Kingdom.[7] In the women's individual recurve she qualified sixth after the opening ranking round, earning her a bye into the round of 16.[8] In her first match she faced Javzmaa Byambasuren of Mongolia and won six sets to two.[9] In the quarterfinal she competed against Yan Huilian the third seed from China and was beaten in straight sets, six to zero.[2][9] In the women's team recurve Vennard competed alongside Kate Murray and Leigh Walmsley. They placed sixth in the ranking round with a combined score of 1549. The trio faced the South Korean team in the quarterfinals but were defeated 188-153 and eliminated from the competition.[10][11] Vennard trains at the City of Belfast Archery Club[1] and is coached by Alistair Whittingham.[12] References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 {{cite web|title=Sharon Vennard|url=http://www.paralympics.org.uk/gb/athletes/sharon-vennard|publisher=British Paralympic Association|accessdate=11 August 2014}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Vennard, Sharon}}2. ^1 {{cite news|title=Paralympics: Vennard hails amazing crowd after bowing out of archery|url=http://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/sport/paralympics/paralympics-vennard-hails-amazing-crowd-after-bowing-out-of-archery-28788253.html|accessdate=11 August 2014|work=Belfast Telegraph|date=4 September 2012}} 3. ^{{cite news|title=NI woman Sharon Vennard targets Paralympic archery medal|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/disability-sport/19342535|accessdate=11 August 2014|work=BBC Sport|date=22 August 2012}} 4. ^1 {{cite web|title=Sharon Vennard|url=http://www.dsni.co.uk/about-us/case-studies/sharon-vennard|publisher=Disability Sports NI|accessdate=11 August 2014}} 5. ^1 2 3 {{cite web|title=Sharon Vennard|url=http://www.performance-archery.com/sharon-vennard/|website=performance-archery.com|accessdate=11 August 2014}} 6. ^{{cite web|last1=Degun|first1=Tom|title=GB archers dominate at Para-Archery World Ranking event|url=http://www.insidethegames.biz/paralympics/summer-sports/archery/109604-gb-archers-dominate-a|publisher=Inside the Games|accessdate=11 August 2014|date=21 August 2011}} 7. ^{{cite news|title=London 2012: NI woman Sharon Vennard picked for Paralympics|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/disability-sport/18212313|accessdate=11 August 2014|work=BBC Sport|date=25 May 2012}} 8. ^{{cite news|title=Paralympics 2012: NI's Sharon Vennard sixth in archery qualifier|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/disability-sport/19431613|accessdate=11 August 2014|work=BBC Sport|date=30 August 2012}} 9. ^1 {{cite web|title=London 2012 Paralympic Games Archery Women's Individual Recurve standing|url=http://www.paralympic.org/ipc_results/results2pdf.php?sport=archery&competition=2012PG&gender=f&discipline=&event=Individual+Recurve&eclass=standing|publisher=International Paralympic Committee (IPC)|accessdate=11 August 2014|format=PDF}} 10. ^{{cite web|title=GB's pom-pom Archery women go out of team event|url=http://paralympics.org.uk/news/gbs-pom-pom-archery-women-go-out-of-team-event#|publisher=British Paralympic Association|accessdate=11 August 2014|date=5 September 2012}} 11. ^{{cite web|title=London 2012 Paralympic Games Archery Women's Team Recurve open|url=http://www.paralympic.org/ipc_results/results2pdf.php?sport=archery&competition=2012PG&gender=f&discipline=&event=Team+Recurve&eclass=open|publisher=International Paralympic Committee|accessdate=11 August 2014|format=PDF}} 12. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.performance-archery.com/author/awhittingham/page/4/|title=Pumped up or poker faced?
