This Saturday is BAP, our monthly opportunity for archers of all abilities to learn the steps in World Archery’s Beginner Award Programme. Come along for coaching and a chance to practice with others as you work towards your White, Black, Blue, Red or Gold Arrow.  Please arrive by 10:30am. Later arrivals may not be able to join in the programme.

Indoor Range working bee – 4 May

We’re preparing for the upcoming indoors season with a working bee at our indoor range. Jobs include painting, re-marking the floors, marking the correct locations on the wall to place targets, and general tidying up.

If you’re an indoor range user please mark the date in your calendar and come to lend a hand.

More details to follow closer to the time.

Indoor Range – upcoming badminton tournament

Our landlords at the indoor range – Waitakere Badminton Centre – are hosting a very large tournament from 11 to 13 April. Parking will be at a premium.

If you can avoid the indoor range on these days that would be ideal, but if not, please be prepared to park around the corner/across the road and walk in.
