Getting Into Archery with the Club
If you have paid a visit to the club or have thought of trying the sport after watching Katniss Everdeen, Hawkeye of the Avengers and even following countless hours of "The Arrow" T.V. Series - of course not to forget the legendary Robin hood. If you have ever dreamt of representing Great Britain along side the greats of Larry Godfrey, Naomi Folkard and countless others, you have come to the right place!
Beginners Courses
The course comprises of six lessons (each session is 2/3 hours long) over 6 weeks. The course costs £70 (payable in advance) and includes insurance cover and the hire of equipment. Courses are available all year round, subject to coach availability and demand.
What about Juniors?
We encourage juniors (under 18yrs) and have several active juniors in the club. Please note that insurance regulations require all juniors must always be accompanied by a parent or guardian at all times.

"Archery as an art is more like music than anything else. At first you blunder horridly with the keys of a piano; but at length you can dash through a waltz at a gallop. So when you begin long range shooting you may not score 150 at the Double York Round; but the time soon comes when you easily count off 500 or 600. Intelligent training is everything. The race is to the diligent. Patience and intelligent labor form the royal road to success."
