Beginners

Here at Robins Reach, we have all the facilities and equipment for private tuition.

A GNAS (Grand National Archery Society) recognised beginners course consists of 8 hours tuition (NB. this is the minimum requirement by GNAS in order to join any UK archery club).

We can offer this at any time of day, 7 days a week, over 2, 3 or 4 sessions at a mutually convenient time. However, in winter, with the dark evenings, we find daytime/weekend sessions most appropriate. Alternatively, we offer a residential course, with a one or two night stay in our B&B.

The course covers basic training in Recurve Archery plus in-depth safety; archery etiquette; different bow disciplines; recurve, bare bow, long bow and compound; equipment set up, terminology and basic maintenance; advice on equipment needed to take up the sport.

A certificate will be supplied at the end of successful completion of the 8-hour course, enabling the client(s) to join any archery club of their choice.

Our qualified, experienced coach, offers intensive one-to-one tuition/coaching for those requiring in-depth personal training. The same level of tuition can be provided for groups of up to 4 people involving a little less individual attention, but gaining experience from group activity.

We can happily offer Archery sessions to groups of more than 4, but in order not to compromise the level of service with which we pride ourselves, would employ the services of another qualified instructor, which is reflected in the price.
