They’re very popular with families, friends and work mates and make a great gift. Bookings are essential, see below for upcoming dates, further details and online booking links. When on duty, all our coaches wear shirts that look a little different to most members’ shirts to make it easier to spot them around the club. They are predominantly grey with green trim and have “coach” written on the sleeve with their first name on the front. Whilst always busy helping people, they are very approachable. Regardless of your level of archery, coaching help is available to all archers on most Saturday mornings. Newer archers can seek coaching on the mid field on the Mid Field from 9. 00 to 11. 30. More experienced archers may make arrangements for some individualised coaching by seeing the Club Coach. The Level 2 and 3 Coaches offer assistance with measuring and advising you on your first bow purchase and the setup of your new bow. . Coaches and instructors deserve some time themselves to shoot so please respect their time in the afternoon. Some coaches may be willing to assist you after lunch, but most are regular archers themselves and like to shoot some arrows. .
