Need To Know This Week
Clout Club Champs is coming
The Clout Club Champs is on Sunday 3 March at Rutherford College. This will be a great opportunity to practice clout for anyone shooting it at the Nationals, and for any archer of any experience to join in. It’s pretty much the only time archers are allowed to shoot arrows into the air, so give it a go! Details and registration here.
MGAC is hosting College Sport on Wednesdays
Every Wednesday from 21 February to 20 March we will be hosting one division of the College Sport archery competition at MGAC.

Anyone who is available to help set up will be very welcome!
Indoor Range now has cameras
We have installed motion detection cameras at our indoor range for the protection and security of all our archers and our facility.
