Aspiring archers invited to pick up a bow at weekend taster

Archery GB is encouraging anyone looking to try out a new sport to pick up a bow at Peacock Archers in Bottisham, Cambridge this weekend.

Over the last four years, 22,000 people have had a go at archery during the event, which is this year sponsored by Foresters Friendly Society.

“Archery is an extremely inclusive sport and welcomes both young and old, men and women,” say organisers.

All equipment will be provided and club members will lend a hand and share stories about how they started in archery.

The taster day takes place on Saturday June 4 from 2pm till 5pm at the club on Lode Road.
