Archery is a sport that allows everyone to take part and progress no matter what your physical capabilities might be. Don't worry if you're not Robin Hood on your first go, with practice you can progress quickly and start to see your results improve.
Our club runs a number of "Introduction to Archery" courses each year for people that want to give it a go and maybe take their first steps into starting archery as a hobby. The course is 6 hours long over one full day, see the table below for a list of courses for 2021. Because of Covid-19 much of our preparation has been on-hold but with things starting to open up we are hopeful to start new courses in June. Safety is always everyones primary concern with a sport and during this introduction we'll be watching to make sure that you shoot safe and feel safe. But it's also important to have fun, we want you to enjoy your course and to go away with good memories and hopefully the desire to do more.
All equipment is provided, you just need to choose when you want to do the course.
Unfortunately we don't think that the usual tea and coffee can be provided and the BBQ that we normally run is also likely to be unavailable but we will keep this under advisement. The snacks and other soft drinks you can buy on the day may may still be available as these can be sanitised and handled correctly but we will check this and inform you on the day.
