BOWBROOK ARCHERS
ANNOUNCEMENT - Jonathan Walton, Chair of Bowbrook Archers
Sunday 7 March 2021
In line with the Government’s roadmap for opening up after lockdown, Bowbrook Archers are hoping to open all outdoor facilities on 29th March.
We are planning that it will be possible to make bookings from 22nd March.
However, these dates are dependent on appropriate progress being made in containing the COVID-19 virus, so Archery GB will not be issuing any guidance until 22nd March.
Bowbrook Archers cannot finalise any plans until after the Archery GB guidance has been issued. At this stage we do not know when indoor archery will be able to re-start. Sorry we cannot be any more definite at this stage.
We like to think that we are one of the most welcoming and friendly archery clubs in Shropshire. We have a membership of almost 200 people, covering all age groups and Archery skill levels. While many of our members take part in competitions our main aim is to have fun and enjoy shooting. We encourage all members to develop Archery for themselves, be that target, field or clout disciplines. We also welcome most bow types: compound, freestyle (recurve), longbow, traditional and barebow.
Bowbrook Archers was founded in 1984, based in Shrewsbury, with a small membership and shot at various indoor and outdoor venues until 2007 when the current field was purchased by the members. Today, with both indoor and outdoor ranges, we are proud to say that our archery facilities are amongst the best in the U.K.
What to expect
A lot of fun, the chance to meet new friends and to get involved with many different aspects of archery in amongst some of Shropshire's most stunning countryside!
There's always something going on at Bowbrook, for all levels of archer, from beginners courses and have-a-go sessions to corporate days up to World Record Status competitions.
Drop in!
We're always pleased to welcome new faces, so if you are interested in checking out our facilities or if you want to talk to us about membership or archery coaching, then why not pop in and say hello? The range is located in the heart of the beautiful Shropshire countryside, just outside of Withington and Upton Magna near Shrewsbury.
For those who don't know, What Three Words is a geocode system for the communication of locations with a resolution of three metres. It pin-points the gates to the entrance of Bowbrook Archers much better than the postcode does!
