Joining the club
Two routes into Thirsk Bowmen
Beginners start with coaching and a safety assessment before shooting. Experienced archers can arrange a direct affiliation. Either way, the first step is a conversation with the club committee.
The pathway
From first enquiry to active member
01
Make an enquiry
Get in touch with the club committee to say whether you are new to archery or already shoot, and what you are hoping to do.
02
Introductory session
Beginners take part in coaching sessions that cover safe handling, stance, and the basics of aim and release.
03
Safety assessment
Every new member completes a safety assessment before shooting unsupervised on the club’s ground.
04
Active membership
Once admitted, members gain access to scheduled shooting times and the club’s established facilities.
Arrange an initial introduction
Experienced archers and beginners alike are welcome to get in touch with the committee to arrange a first conversation.
