NOTICES

CLASSIFICATIONS

A classification is a nationally recognized award that shows an archer has achieved a set standard. They range from 3^rd class to Bowman (which the club can award) to Master Bowman and Grand Master Bowman (which is awarded by the GNAS directly). The club level awards can be shot either on a club night or in a competition and handed to the records officer (Nick Beeson). The GNAS awards must be shot at a record status tournament and sent to the GNAS. To achieve the award you must shoot the required level three times in a season. more...

SUNDAY MORNING SHOOTING

Club members can shoot on Sunday mornings every weekend but we only have organised rounds in the afternoon.

If you are thinking of coming to the club to shoot in the morning and want to know if anyone else is coming down, post a message on the club's message board:

LOST ARROWS

Please remember that if you cannot find an arrow you MUST complete a lost arrow form and hand it to one of the bar staff so that the groundsman is aware of the area in which it may be lying. In previous seasons a buried arrow has been found by a footballer skid tackling - so this is a safety MUST DO, not an option.
