Awards

Within archery there is an award scheme , starting at 3rd class and working to the Grand Master Bowman, the way to progress though the ranks is to achieve a score while shooting a particular round, that being the format of the target and number of arrows shot. Some of the levels can be achieved at ordinary club practice times, and then some need to be shot during competitions.
