Come and Try Days

Southern Vales Archery Club holds Come and Try’s for members of the public to have a go at archery. The Come and Try days are scheduled on the Easter Saturday and the second Saturday of September every year as part of our Hope Cup charity day. Other times are arranged through discussions and agreements with our volunteers.

Ages

Archery is suitable for children as young 10 years old, however some 8 or 9 year old’s may be physically able to participate.
Archery uses the back muscles when drawing the string, and we must be mindful of not causing injury to young developing muscles.
If our coaches and instructors advise that your child cannot participate, it will be due to concern over their strength capabilities at the time.

Cost

$10 per participant
You can pay by cash or card
SVAC Social Members are free

Bookings

There is no need to book, just turn up.
Sign in and pay at the clubhouse and then you’ll be directed where to go next.

Participation

Please be aware that the more members of the public that participate, the longer you may have to wait between your turns.
Once your turn has finished, we ask that you return to the back of the line and respectfully wait for your next turn.
We will have several targets out on the day to minimise any delays and to improve your experience.

Equipment

You will use our recurve bows and our arrows
Personal private equipment will not be permitted to be used on our grounds by members of the public
