There will be no archery at the venue on Sunday 6th of June, instead we will be reverting to Monday evenings, outdoors, from 7-9 pm starting from Monday 7 June.

I hope to see you all then.

Berwick Archers will be shooting, at last, on Sunday 25/4/21 at 2pm until 4pm outside on the school sports field.

We hope lots of members will be able to attend. There are, of course, some restrictions to keep us safe, like social distancing and target placement, also sticking to your own equipment and not handling others gear.

Come along and enjoy an afternoon shooting.

Our first shoot since march 9th. Here’s to many more to come.

After this interminable break archery GB had given permission for clubs to restart limited shooting again, and in line with their guidelines we at the club are hoping to restart on July 6th, we had to wait until the school gave permission after the term ends.

The limitations on shooting include:

• Outdoors only.
• One person per target.
• 5 metres between bosses.
• The 2 metre social distancing rules apply.
• There will be no entry to the sports hall, toilets and drink making facilities.
• Archers will be given a target face and pins which they are to remove and take home after use. This to reduce cross-contamination.
• Also archers should refrain from handling anyone else’s equipment.

For further guidelines might I suggest reading the archery GB website. These limitations apart we hope that we can all get together and shoot some arrows again.

One strict rule that we ask archer to follow is that any one having symptoms of the virus refrain from attending for at least 14days until given the medical all clear.

We realise this may seem a bind, but with practise it may get easier and we are doing all we can to keep people safe.

Regards.
John.

Hi Folks.

It seems ages since we all shot together, the likelihood of there being any shooting in the near future seems remote so here are some reminders of the evening we said goodbye to Donald.

I hope you all stay well and if you have found ways to keep up the interest in archery, I will happily pass them on to other members.

Regards.
John.

The school has banned the use of the sports hall by all external clubs for the foreseeable future as a measure to protect the students from the Corona virus. There will therefore be no archery on Monday evenings until further notice.

Please note this year’s Spirit of Sport day is on Sunday 3rd of May, we are hoping that as many people as possible will volunteer to help out, the times are from 10am to 4pm but we will need to be there early enough to set up.

The Club’s Christmas meal will be on Monday 16th December (7pm for 7.30pm) at the Castle Hotel, Castlegate, Berwick.

The cost is £25 for 3 courses or £20 for 2 courses. Club members will be subsidised £10. If members wish to bring their significant others they will have to pay the full price. In order for janet to book the meals she will need to know the numbers attending and will need a £10 deposit per person as soon as possible, speed is of the essence. See xmas menu.
