Register for Archery (Beginner and Intermediate)

Do you think you can shoot an apple on someone’s head, if you were asked to?

Regretfully, we won’t be able to teach you how to perform this stunt (we lack the volunteery victim) but we can teach you the proper steps to aim and shoot, and hopefully, groom you for future regional and international competitions. 

Give a go at the legendary sport called Archery. We are starting new programmes for beginners and intermediate archers soon. Find out how you can register below.
