A 2 day Archery learning experience that when completed will equip you with skills and knowledge that will allow you to join any Archery Club in the UK.
To get you started after you book on to our courses you will be sent our amazing Archery Course Booklet. This complete learning guide tells you everything that will happen on your course. How to get to us, what to bring with you, the appropriate clothing so you can shoot safely and also what provisions to bring so you can stay hydrated and on top form.
On completion of the course and if you have shown you are safe to progress we will also present you with an amazing pass certificate that is recognised anywhere in the UK.
Once you pass the course this now means you now have the skills to shoot in a club environment, and that you also have a full understanding of the safety aspect and line ettiquette. We also additionally teach you about how to keep healthy and learn more each session as you start you own Archery journey by joining our fabulous Archery Club where we will continue to teach you about the many aspects of shooting archery.
This course teaches you how to shoot any type of bow safely so that you can progress quickly and meet your own personal goal as you progress.
Frequently asked questions
We take members from the age of 10 upwards. As we integrate all age groups into our shooting environments. We have this age restriction for many reasons but the main aspects are safety. We have strict safety protocols that are governed by members being able to understand the rules and adhere to them
We haven't found any as yet! But our 10 plus age group restriction is also so that younger archers don't get disappointed by not being able to shoot to their own expectations that are sometimes hard to manage and stay within the Safety guidelines.
We have group discounts available, If you can't see any that apply to your group send us an email so we can discuss your requirements. We are very family orientated and encourage parents to take the course at the same time as any juniors, as you would have to supervise any 10 to 16 year old anyway.
