Archery ClubArchery Club at Folly FarmEclipse Archery Club is based at Eclipse Archery Centre, Folly Farm and has been running since January 2009. It is a small, friendly club, offering a range of activities from taster sessions and training courses for novices through to one on one coaching for High-level archers. Currently, we are working with one of the Northern Ireland squad, and one of the Welsh squad, who will represent their countries at the Commonwealth Games in India, later this year. In addition, some of our members have represented Hampshire in more local competitions. During the last year, many people have undertaken Taster Sessions and Beginners’ Courses, some of whom are North Waltham residents, and now members of the Club. The Club is affiliated to the Grand National Archery Society (the governing body for the sport in the UK), Southern Counties Archery Society and the Hampshire Archery Association. Our outdoor shooting range is open to Club members from dawn to dusk on a daily basis and Taster Sessions, Training Courses and Coaching are available from our GNAS qualified coaches on a by appointment basis.
