Archery

Club Name: Racketts Archery Club

Club Description: We shoot a variety of disciplines. The most popular bow shot at Racketts is the 'recurve' type but we also have members that shoot the 'compound' bow and the traditional 'longbow'. We are predominately a target club and shoot under GNAS regulations, but a few members also belong to the NFAS and enjoy 'field' archery.

We meet on Sunday mornings from 10.00 am onwards at James Hornsby School for the summer season but during the winter months we shoot indoors at Woodlands School on Sunday morning from 10.00am to 1.30pm and on a Tuesday evening from 7.30pm to 10.00pm. (Times may vary check please call to confirm).

When people join a club they have to abide by the regulations set down by GNAS. Most Archery clubs do not have individual liability insurance and use the insurance provided by GNAS, so when new members join our club we are able to offer them, under GNAS regulations, six lessons at a cost of £30. This provides the new member with temporary insurance cover but after this the full GNAS fee must be paid yearly.
