In the past couple of years we have run on average two courses per year for five of those courses almost all joined, however the last course of the 12 participants only 5 joined and it turned out that some had been on the waiting list for more than a year and probably would only have wanted a taster session rather than a course. we tell all of the beginners that coaching is available to all of them weather they want to shoot competitions or just for relaxation.

we are looking at having a club squad system to give the people as much support as they want.

Running two improvers courses per year spring and autumn to do equipment maint tuning and video work to help with form and technique should find out at club agm if the membership want this.

We still have a wiating list of 36 but have given 17 of them a taster session to see if they are still interested and they all still want the course.

As we try to get the begineers to use club kit for six months to work them up in bow wieght to save them buying a bow that needs to be replaced quickly. its only sensible to run two per year
