Archery Technique Drills Videos
Through ArcheryGB you can get all the information you need to become a great archer. The foundation of a good form is very simple: good bone on bone alignment. The technique has evolved and refined over the years and teaching is simpler and more effective.
Drills and skills are the very essential framework that any (qualified) coach can teach you through. If you want to improve your technique, no matter what style you might be shooting, these are the real foundation of good form.

Archery Seminar 2023
Another wonderful archery event completed today. Our head coach led a very interesting seminar about a number of topics which are often barely touched during the archery year.
- How many hours of shooting do you need to master archery?
- Which is the only confirmed way to improve your scores?
This is my tribe
What a good way to start the new year with a friendly day down at the range.
Some arrows fly straight in, some others dwell lazy on the side. A bright sun and a lovely sky to warm temperatures in this peaceful bank holiday.
That unique feeling of peace, of belonging, that only archery can give you.
Indoor Programme 2022/2023
As per every shooting season, here is the scheduled programme for this winter. We’ll be shooting indoor (and partly outdoors) until the end of March 2023.
We have chosen to align our club’s tournaments to the Welsh Archery Association winter postal league so every round scored by our members, will be a common participation in the Welsh country picture (you can always choose to not participate in the winter league if you wish, just letting us know).
Equipment Maintenance
When shooting at the club everyone has a responsibility for their own safety and that of other club members.
In order to maintain the club’s good safety record, it is important that club members:
- Operate under Archery GB rules of shooting.
- Use well maintained equipment.
Another Level 2 Coach
It took a while, but through the slowness of the bureaucratic machine of ArcheryGB, we can finally cheer the official reinstatement one of our best coaches.
With the experience of (nearly) an entire lifetime in archery, and an extensive knowledge well recognized by olympic archers, we are very proud to congratulate with
Patrick Beckett,
who is now a Level 2 Development Coach. The constant activity and support that Patrick put every day in our club, to support archers develop their form and skill, and by encouraging novices with excellent observations, has been officially recognized by ArcheryGB and the old qualification once achieved and held, officially reactivated.
Well done Patrick.
Witches & Warlocks Open Shoot (2022)
Update – some bow style categories are already full and very few spaces are left. Check with the Tournament Organisers if there is room left before making the payment.
– – –
The magic is coming back this year, on the 30th of October with the Witches & Warlocks Open Shoot. Registration form at the bottom with entry fees of 8£ to 6£.
The game, is a fun moment to enjoy altogether a small tournament in special conditions. While the round will present a no efforts challenge to all experienced archers, it will be an opportunity for all clubs and families to get themselves a bit more familiar to the practice of tournaments.

Why to attend?
- it’s fun
- it’s cheap tournament practice (you can focus on the fun, but at the same time, you’ll familiarize with proper tournament conditions and boost your confidence)
- your official scores won’t be affected (it’s a minor shoot, get your a..rms over here)
- it’s excellent for junior and novices practices
- there’s Special Titles to win (see the awards)
Club Championship Day 2022
Now, this is something you don’t see every day, and this is definitely something you don’t see in every Archery Club (photos link at the bottom).
The Club Championship today, tested the very best of our members. The heat was extreme, specially next to the BBQ grills where the Stars, were burning hotter than ever…
