A target archery club in Northumberland's mid-Tyne valley
Beginners Welcome!
We are a target archery club for archers from the age of 14 years, welcoming newcomers from Newcastle, Gateshead, Prudhoe, Stocksfield, Newburn, Corbridge, Hexham, Blaydon and surrounding areas. If you're new to archery, you may care to try a taster session or sign up for a beginners course.
The club uses recurve bows and the more traditional longbow. On-going help and assistance is available and we encourage each club member to progress to their individual goals, whether this is by social shooting at the club or attending competitions.
Please contact us by email at borderreiverarchers@yahoo.com
The club is continuing to shoot following the government's December 2021 announcement that sports facilities are to remain open. Read Archery GB's guidance for archers, coaches and clubs.
A fun introduction to the sport of Archery. A one hour session designed for those with no previous experience and suited to those aged 12+
