What We Offer

Experience Archery runs archery in schools, colleges & universities. Our archery sessions are suitable for primary age children right up to young people at university. Our programmes are for year 4 and upwards.

We can provide one-off taster sessions for a full or half day of archery at your venue, or can design an age appropriate programme to fit into termly or half-termly PE modules or on-going after school clubs. We can also offer archery courses during the school holidays.

If your school has suitable facilities, (hall or field) we can come to you. Prior to running any sessions at your venue, an instructor will assess the spaces suitability and do a full risk assessment and also discuss your requirements and any specific needs of participants.

Social and Life Skills

Archery has many transferable skills which can be linked in with Citizenship lessons or Life Skills and Personal Development programmes. Some of the skills archery promotes include: self-discipline, mental arithmetic, staying calm under pressure, cooperation, following instructions, working individually and as part of a team.

In order to take part in an archery session, students must adhere to strict safety guidelines, which encourage personal responsibility and consideration of the safety of others. Furthermore, involvement in active, structured activities with tangible outcomes has been shown to promote self-esteem and emotional well-being in short-term and longer-term projects.

Structure of Sessions

Our sessions can be self-contained or part of a longer term programme depending on your requirements. Sessions are designed to be educational and fun, and generally last between 50 mins – 1.5 hours.

A typical first session runs as follows:

• Sessions begin with a full safety briefing and providing equipment to each participant
• Demonstration of correct shooting technique
• Individual guidance to support each participant to shoot safely
• Group shooting
• Archery shooting games and introduction to scoring
• Finish off with a fun light hearted competition

Awards

On-going programmes work towards developing greater technique and understanding of archery. Students can work towards gaining specific awards through the World Archery or Archery GB Beginner Award Programmes.
