Nothing is more important to Farnham Archers than the health and safety of our members, and that of our fellow archers.
The COVID-19 (Coronavirus) pandemic has severely interrupted archery but as of March 29th 2021 the club is allowed to run physically distanced events, in compliance with the most recent government guidelines, regular shooting sessions for club members can restart and please see the beginners page for information about the restarting of courses. The range is open for individual shooting for club members, please use the online booking system to reserve your target. Please continue to observe the risks associated with COVID-19 (Coronovirus) and follow the current UK Government guidelines and the normal rules of shooting. The clubhouse and other building are still off limits.
DO NOT visit the Club if you feel at all unwell, or if you have been in contact with anyone who is unwell.
Please stay safe and well.
Our club is based just outside Farnham near the village of Elstead in Surrey. The shooting field is permanently available to our members affording the luxury of shooting any time you wish. We do have a club evening on Tuesdays and shoot organised rounds on Sundays including a number of club trophy shoots throughout the year where any member is encouraged to join in. We have archers of all ages and abilities shooting locally and in national competitions. We also run a number beginners introductory sessions starting in April (see the beginners page for more details).
A glorious mid September day saw a number of Farnhams archers take home a haul of medals from the Woking Open including overall Mens first and Team first places. There were also awards for best Bowman score, best 2nd class archer and barebow best gold. So 6 medals for 3 people and we all went home pretty happy!
The first leg of this years FLAG competition between Alton & Four Marks, Farnham, Guilford and Woking will be taking place at our field on April 28th. We look forwards to welcoming the other clubs to our field and lets see if we can have another great turnout!
Great turn out for the Frostbite shoot in December. We have Longbow, Compound, Recurve, Junior and Barebow teams entered in the Surrey Postal competition this year.
On May 4th a mixed junior team from Farnham Archers and Alton & Four Marks triumphed at the Chessington Junior Team Tournament. The six archers shot well in blustery tricky conditions and managed to take home the trophy.
This weekend was the Kings Cup at Chessington. Great event as always and as usual very well run. Nine of our archers took part in the third session on Saturday Renata d'Entrecasteaux, Kat Thorpe, Debbie Annible, Brian Avery, Phil Harding, Dave Paris, Steve d'Entrecasteaux, Graeme Higgs and me.
Well done to Julie Pilbeam, for winning the Bronze medal with her longbow, at Guildford's WA25 shoot. Well done also to our recurve Team for winning Bronze, just pipped into second place by 1 point!
