archery

Over the course of thirty years the range of activities at the Centre has developed. New activities, like climbing, have been introduced, others including cycling have come and gone. One activity that has been consistent throughout the years is archery.

There’s a good reason for that. Archery is an activity for everyone. Archery takes co-ordination, concentration, a fair amount of strength and uses both fine and gross motor skills. Most people miss first time but with practice and good instruction everyone gets better pretty quickly!

Not everyone has the strength and co-ordination to tackle archery unaided so we have developed ways of working to ensure everyone can take part.

Using specialized equipment including bows mounted onto tables and posts and quick release mechanisms we aim to remove the barriers that prevent people taking part. Most importantly our instructors are on hand to give as much, or as little, help as required.
