Instruction for Beginners

The Club runs Beginners Courses which are charged at £30 for 5 lessons for Adults or £20 for Juniors under 16 yrs (Special rates apply to groups and school pupils).

New Members must either take a course of lessons before joining and show that they are safe and sensible OR they must be competent archers - that's to say, already members of the Grand National Archery Society, or have satisfactorily completed a proper course of instruction by a recognised body. All members and beginners under instruction must abide by the GNAS Rules of Shooting and follow all safety requirements and any / all directions of the site owners.

Our Instructors give Beginners a Proper Start. We let Beginners use the Club's Equipment until they are ready to get their own. Modern Equipment is very "forgiving" and "fast" - skill is more important than strength. This means that everyone - Old & Young, Strong & Weak - can get Good Results. Archery is accessible to people with Physical or Visual Impairment.

Coaching

Help and training is freely available in the Club up to a good intermediate "Second" or "First" Class standard - beyond that level - (on to "Bowman", "Master" or "Grand Master") - Coaching can be arranged often at little or no cost.

Advanced Coaching is available in Sussex from GNAS-accredited County, Regional and National Standard Judges, collectively members of 'The Martlets Guild'. The Guild regularly runs courses for 'Improving' Archers, plus 'County Elite Squad' training at both Adult and Junior levels.
