We will start beginner courses again in April. If you want to be notified of our course schedule, ask to be added to our mailing list by sending us a note on our Contact Us page, just add "Please add me to your 2023 course mailing list" in the comment.
Archery is a sport that allows everyone to take part and progress no matter what their 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 2022. Safety is always everyone's 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.
Tea and coffee is available all day (no charge) and if the weather is kind and we have enough people available, a BBQ is also likely to be available (charges apply) but we will keep this under advisement. Snacks and other soft drinks you can buy on the day. Everything will continue to be sanitised and minimally handled.
