2020 Round up

A 2020 was the year of Covid-19, with the country and archery in lockdown.
The year started with such promise with a number of new archers starting on the first of the beginners courses we had planned, which unfortunately was cut short.
Our competition calendar didn't even have a chance to begin so no competitive shooting was undertaken by the membership. A few archers did however manage one or two socially distanced practice sessions in between lockdowns.
We look towards 2021 with hope that the world gets control of this virus and  archery can safely resume soon.
Stay Safe!

Plans to resume shooting

 Following Archery GB's update , the committee have been working on how to safely resume shooting whilst adhering to all current guidelines.  We are finalising new field markings for rest and isolating areas to help to ensure social distancing is maintained. Items such as gloves, hand sanitiser and wipes have been purchased. We expect to be up and running by the 30th May 2020, subject to there being no further announcments or restrictions.
Our framework for guiding the membership into safe shooting is available here . Please take some time to read through it.
All members who partake of the facilities need to carry in their minds that these are not normal times and extra caution is needed to maintain safe distancing.

The committee hope you enjoy what you can of your shooting, remain safe and keep others safe.

Beginners Course  March 2020
postponed due to ​COVID-19 

Our beginners course due to take place over 4 sessions in March/April 2020 has had to be postponed due to the Covid-19 virus and restrictions from both Archery GB and the Government. Alternative dates will be published as soon as possible.
People who had already started the course with us will be contacted as soon as we can with options and new dates.

Club Kit

If anyone is in need of any club kit please chat to Andrea so she can co-ordinate the order.  This is for shooting shirts and all the various jackets and hoodies. We generally only place an order when there are enough requests to warrant it.
Be aware that all members need to wear official club colours when taking part in any official shoots (not club nights). 
For information on club colours and the rules of shooting regarding clothing please refer to your handbooks.

 Novelty Shoot

Our annual Novelty Shoot started off the 2019 season with a bang!
The shoot fell on both Easter and St George's Day so it took on a rather eastery/bunny/ dragony theme. Points were scored for hitting a dragon, bonus points scored for hitting one of the rather angry looking bunnies and minus points for hitting an egg. The finale was the traditional apple round. 

The eventual overall winner was Mark Haliday - congratualtions
A massive thanks to Karen for arranging the shoot,
