Beginners courses take place during the outdoor season, which starts in April, at Brimfield and Little Hereford Sports Club. We invite all interested parties to a “Taster Session”, giving a basic introduction and hands-on taster for archery. We hope you would then like to continue with a beginners course.

Beginners courses are usually run on Friday evenings. The current cost of the course is £40 for all ages. We teach beginners using the “Recurve” style of bow. This will give you the basics of shooting, and enable you to go on and shoot other styles such as longbow, flatbow or compound. All equipment is provided for the beginners course. Potential archers will be allocated equipment which will be for their sole use during the course, and for a short time after if they join the club.

The course is available for anyone of 10 years of age and above. If an individual has a health issue or a disability, then archery can still be for you, and our coaches are happy to confidentially discuss this with you.

Enquirers will be contacted by a club coach to discuss times and dates for the course. At this time any health issue or disability can also be confidentially discussed with the coach.

The club Beginners Booklet is available as a PDF here. This booklet provides an overview of what will be covered at each of the sessions. When you attend one of our beginners’ courses you will be helped to remember the important information by application and observation.

At the end of the course you may wish to apply for membership of Archers of Teme, details and advice will be available at that time.
