Fun Day for Juniors
The Guildford Archery club Junior Acorn is back and so are the Farnham Juniors. Six of our Juniors took part in their first competitive shoot, they enjoyed a fantastic day and walked away with a haul of 5 medals!
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 alternating Saturdays and Sundays including occasional 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 several beginner introductory sessions starting in April (see the beginners page for more details).
COVID-19
The health and safety of our members and those visiting our club is important to us. There are currently no restrictions and the club range is open to shooting for our members and invited visitors only!
DO NOT visit the Club if you feel at all unwell, or if you have been in contact with anyone who has tested positive for COVID-19 (Coronavirus).

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!
