If you are interested in taking up archery or you are already an archer and are looking to shoot with us, you’re in the right place.
Membership Application
Already an archer?
If you are already an archer and have your own equipment and are looking to shoot with us, we’d love to meet you. To shoot with us as a full member, you must have a full NFAS membership, which means you have been signed-off by an NFAS coach or SOA. If this doesn’t apply to you, you must contact us first by emailing [email protected].
Provisional and Full NFAS memberships
Please make sure you follow the link below to understand the difference between Provisional and Full membership and to to transition between these two memberships.
Although memberships are open to all, we’d really appreciate you contacting us before you apply for membership, as we want to know all of our members. Use the email address above to get in touch.
Memberships run from April 1st to March 31st annually. If joining after September 30th, you can opt for a 6 month membership. This only applies if it’s your first membership or if your membership has lapsed for more than 18 months.
Please note: 95% of our members shoot single string, unsighted bows. As such we are currently not taking any new members that shoot compound bows.
Never done archery before?
If you have never done archery before or have tried it at a have a go, or on holiday then you will need to do an archery beginners course. We run courses throughout the year. You can find details here. Please make sure you read the whole page on that link.
Just completed our beginner’s course?
If you have just completed a beginner’s course with us, or with another club then the process for joining is the same. But you the process is slightly different as you will need to be signed off by our Sign Off Authority (SOA) before you can shoot unsupervised.
All the information you need can be found in a downloadable PDF that has been prepared for new archers. Please download and read before continuing.
