Newcomers to any sport will benefit from early professional tuition and archery is no exception.
FGA has operated a successful beginners course for many years which has provided hundreds of archers with their initial grounding in the fundamentals of the sport.
Each course is a three hour session over two consecutive Sundays.
Please register your interest in the course by contacting the course administrator (membershipfga@gmail.com) who will confirm spaces and issue with the forms.
You are advised to book early to avoid disappointment.
Completion of a beginners course at FGA or another club is a pre-requisite to joining the club. The course will be led by qualified coaches and all equipment will be provided. A certificate of basic competency will be issued to each delegate on successful completion of the course.
The course fee is Juniors £45 (11 to 18) or Seniors £75 (18 and over) and due to the limited number of places available, spaces will be allocated strictly on a first come first served basis.
Please Note:
The minimum age to join the Course and Club is 11.
All Juniors aged 14 and under must be accompanied by a Parent or Guardian.
All children aged 15 to 17 must have suitable means to contact their parents, and contact details must be left with an adult member.
On going advice and coaching will be available for those keen to progress and who wish to acquire their own equipment. Every encouragement will be given to course delegates to join the Club on conclusion of the course. Membership is open to all with reduced fees for Juniors, Family groups and Disabled archers.
Beginners who join the club will be free to use club equipment until they purchase their own.
Gift Voucher
A gift voucher is available where participation in the course is presented as a birthday, Christmas gift etc.
