Training Sessions

We train several times a week as a club. Most of our training sessions are free sessions where members will typically shoot competition rounds.

The club works with two professional archery coaches, who will be focusing on novice and experienced archers separately. Each coach typically attends one session per week, as noted in the schedule below.

Members who have completed the Beginners' Course are free to come to as many sessions as they like, though our indoor Sunday sessions are restricted to experienced archers for coaching. Novice archers may not shoot alone, and every session must be attended by an experienced archer. We ask that all members sign up for sessions on the facebook group to help coordinate this.

We ask that all members please be on time for sessions to help set up the range.

Indoor Season
