There was a long history of Archery in the Clacton area before Clacton Archers opened the present club in 1970 to amalgamate all the various interests. The club caters for all types of archery, including Recurve, Compound and Longbows.
The club is affiliated to GNAS, Archery GB, and is
a target shooting club.
The club meets twice a week throughout the year,
Wednesday evenings and Sunday mornings. See Club information for further
details
Two Open Tournaments are organised each year under
the auspices of Archery GB: an indoor event in January and an outdoor one in
July, both attracting competitors from far afield.
The club is known in the area among charities and
other fund raising organisations, for
running Have – A – Go events, with the proceeds being divided between the club (to
help with club funds) and the charity concerned.
We are proud of the fact that amongst our
members, we have three qualified coaches.
These personnel mean that archers of all ages and
experience, can benefit from first class coaching in order to
obtain the necessary experience to qualify for Archery GB membership, enable them to
shoot at club meets and improve their
abilities to higher levels.
