Shooting Outdoors

 

WHEN

ALL YEAR ROUND

We shoot outdoors on the sports field on Sunday mornings and Bank Holiday Mondays, in two sessions, from 8:30 until 10:30, and from 10:30 until 12:30, weather permitting. The first and last half hours will include setting up and dismantling the field. If there is a cricket match or practice, we must vacate the field by 12:30pm. 

SUMMER - From 1st April to 1st October

We shoot outdoors on the field on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons / evenings, meeting at 5:00pm to set up the equipment and then commence shooting from 5:30pm, continuing until the last person leaves (usually 7:00pm).

With the removal of Covid restrictions, we no longer require members to book lanes prior to turning up.

Compliance Certificate 

Please note: "...when last person leaves..." - When any shooting is in progress there must be a minimum of two people present, each being a minimum of 18 years of age, one of whom may be a non-archer to act as a lookout. The archer is responsible to inform the lookout of all safety aspects applicable. Where two adult archers are present and shooting together they will alternate on the shooting line so that the non-shooting archer can act as the lookout. When junior archers (ie archers under 18) are shooting individually or in groups they must be supervised by an adult member (excluding honorary members) of Archery GB and a second adult must be present.

Help: Do you frequently turn up and find that the field is all marked out and targets are there, ready for you to shoot at straight away? That's because people turn up and set them up, but they need YOUR help. Please do not expect others to set things up and take them down - you need to help with all aspects of setting up and taking down.

Please see Shooting Indoors for more options for shooting during the Winter.
