Schools

Our qualified Archery GB coaches can bring archery direct to your school.

We teach in primary and secondary schools throughout the country providing programmes for young people aged from 5 to 18 years. Our sessions can be run as part of a workshop, as an after school club or as a one-off taster.

Our Coaches

All our coaches are trained to a high standard and all are Archery GB coaches. This ensures that while the emphasis is on the children having fun they are also instructed using the latest coaching methods.

Good coaching leads to greater satisfaction from the children, as their achievement is greater and more importantly that safety rules are strictly adhered to.

Our head coach is a highly qualified county coach and all of our other coaches are Archery GB qualified to at least Level 1 UKCC standard. The coaches all have enhanced DBS clearance, and full specific archery insurance. We can also carry out any necessary risk assessments
