The aim of the course is not to make you an expert Archer. The course is intended to give you a feeling for the sport, so that you can make a more informed choice about Archery.
After completing the three-week course you will be offered a chance to participate as a beginner for a further three weeks with the members of the Club
After five weeks you should be able to make an informed decision as to whether you want to continue with archery as a sport.
If you choose to do so then you will come back for another week where you will be measured for your equipment.
