After securing the silver medal at the world championships in Berlin, Peters’ goal is to reach the next Olympics and afterwards marry his fiancée
As he grew up in Ottawa, Eric Peters showed no inclination toward team sports. Like other kids he skated on the Rideau Canal, but had no great interest in hockey.He was bookish and immersed himself in reading fantasy novels – and that was where his interest in archery was born.

He was gaining momentum but then the COVID-19 pandemic made training more challenging. His results fell off ahead of qualifying for the 2021 Olympic Games. He was edged out by Duenas and chosen as an alternate but did not go to Tokyo.
