Archery Instruction Program

So, you have made the first step one of our come and try sessions and would like to know more. The Archery Instruction Program (AIP) is the next step.

A 3 week more intensive course that delves into aspects of technique, equipment, scoring, etiquette and field archery. Each session is 2 hours with a set curriculum designed to take participants from a novice to a beginning club archer. This course gets quite detailed quickly and as such is not suitable for younger children (under 10) as they may struggle with some of the concepts and it is advised that parents also sit in on the theory components of this program.
