Indoor Range Access
Our indoor range is in the basement of the Massey (Waitakere) Badminton Centre, located at 149-155 Royal Road, Massey. This facility is available for use by members of any recognised archery club and may be used at any hour or day (24/7 accessible). Please note that we do not allow casual public archery, meaning that anyone wishing to access the indoor range must be a member of a recognised archery club. The range is not available for walk-in interest.
Access to the range is only by arrangement. Please see below for access options.
The range has seventeen individual lanes. In 2024 our facility was upgraded with new LED lighting and a new shooting wall of Delta McKenzie Mo Foam blocks.
Our Indoor Range Rules must be followed at all times by all people in the range (archers, spectators, family, etc). Bows used at the range must have a draw weight no greater than 60 pounds (aligning with World Archery competition regulations). No broadhead points may be used at any time in the range.
We host a WhatsApp group for indoor range users. Please use this to post when you are planning to go to the range, or when you are looking for others to shoot with.
There are several options for accessing the indoor range:

Indoor range access is included in your MGAC membership. The door access code is provided to you once your membership has been approved by the club’s Committee (may take up to a month to confirm). This code changes from time to time.
