As we enter September, the end of the season that “did not happen” is upon us. I hope that most of you lovely Nottinghamshire archers managed to get some shooting in, somehow, somewhere. Continue reading
To encourage juniors back to shooting rounds.
AGB Phase 2 Guidance notes for Clubs, and Archers allows rounds to be shot at clubs.

BI-MONTHLY EDITION
STAY ALERT-CONTROL THE VIRUS-SAVE LIVES
Well, July is upon us, I hope everyone is still fit and well?
After Archery GB issued their return to archery phase 1 document dated 13th May, Bulwell Foresters, Burton Joyce, Greasley Castle Archers, Sherwood Archers, then Wilford Bowmen opened, with Belvoir Archers, Keyworth Archers, Newark Castle Archers and Welbeck Archers to follow this week. Well done and thank you for your hard work in getting your members safely back behind the string. Continue reading
At last I can put out some good news.
Very late Thursday 13th May 2020 AGB in conjunction with Sport England and the Department of Digital culture Media and Sport {DCMS) issued a rather lengthy document titled.
RETURNING TO ARCHERY Phase 1 (I do insist you read it if you are thinking of opening).
It includes guidelines and risk assessments to get clubs back shooting safely and with social distancing. Having read the complete document and trying to see how it fits into my own club facilities, I can see a few snags for a lot of clubs.
It is good to know that at least it should be feasible for some clubs to open up again after some 10 weeks shut down.
Having said that, clubs are under no pressure from AGB, Region or even Notts county to open their doors. I have seen a few clubs on Face Book coming to the conclusion that they could not or think it’s a bit early. This I fully understand.
I can only say to those that can return to archery in a safe and orderly manor, good shooting and for God sake stay safe.
