I'm curious to see what may be the different kinds of archery clubs in UK !

As for mine, it is a company (coming from the military word). In France, there are roughly 3 kinds of clubs : archery clubs linked to FFTA (French federation of Archery), companies also linked to FFTA by with traditionnal ways of practising (companies were created by knights of archery who still exists nowadays), archery clubs linked to FFTL (French federation of free archery) in which archers do mainly field and hunting archery.
Archers of my company do mainly the following shooting styles:
18 m indoor
50 m outdoor French federal shooting
Beursault (traditional shooting at 50 m)
70 m outdoor olympic shooting
4 distances FITA shooting
occasionaly, field archery and 3D (we are not specifically equiped for these shooting)
