| What's new at your club? Dave's very nicely asked me to moderate the Club News section. Since my own club has no news, I've kicked off with some news about the Bronte Archers of Bradford. So what's the news at your club? Any open shoots scheduled? General meetings? Coaching opportunities? Problems with your ground? Let the world know! |

| RE: What's new at your club? We had a coaching session for Long-Bow, Recurve & Compound archers at Burton Bridge Archers A great time was had by all. We had visitors from clubs in Derby & Chesterfield. The Compound was interesting to me, as I was looking to get one for myself, also, as a coach, I needed to learn more about this type of bow. We have just finished our beginner's course, 40 beginners in total, of which 13 juniors & 7 seniors have joined our ranks. Some of our members are off to Wales on a shooting holiday My Good Lady & I included. More on that later We have had a grant to put up a shelterd shooting area & an access ramp for wheelchairs to our clubhouse | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| The annual Green Dragon Bowmen Windsor is coming up on May 14th. If anyones interested in taking part you can find the application form at the link below: http://www.greendragonbowmen.org.uk/...indsor2006.pdf We've also got the end of indoor season club champs at the end of this month. This has been my first indoor season so I hope to use this shoot as marker each year to see how i'm progressing.

| Looks like we could be on our way out from our club site. F00tb@ll seems to rule the roost. It seems that over the past few weeks junior games have had to be cacelled due to bad weather. I think, 2 weeks ago one of our archers went to shoot on Tuesday (Our club practice day), only to find hudreds of kids & several pitches taking up our archery practice space. No way could she shoot she was not well pleased as you could imagine. I've just had a 'phone call from one of our members asking me & other commitee members to go to a meeting with the "Parent club's" committee (This Wednesday). Seems that our Secretary had a right slanging match with the Chairman of this other committee. They want to run the F00tb@ll matches Thursday evening...THIS WEEK when our Beginner's course starts. If we do not toe the line, we could be on our way out, & looking for another field.Ain't life & politics a wanderful thing? Watch this space ![]()
