About Us
 
Brixham Archers was formed in 1969 and is probably the largest of three archery clubs located in Torbay.

We support both target and field archery and regularly host open tournaments
(indoor, outdoor, and field).

We have a range of membership representing male and female
from about 8 years old well into retirement.
Degrees of skill vary from beginners level to "county squad standard"

Membership of Brixham Archers carries with it affiliation to the
National governing body GNAS (Grand National Archery Society),
the Regional association GWAS (Grand Western Archery Society),
the County association DCAS (the Devon and Cornwall Archery Society)

Currently membership stands at approximately 50, but the Club is always ready to welcome new members.


Where To Find Us
 
Brixham Archers are located on the South coast of Devon in the area known as Torbay, which comprises the towns of Torquay, Paignton and Brixham.
We operate at several sites throughout the year, but our home base is at Brixham Cricket Club where we meet every Sunday morning, unless there is a cricket match, in which case we will use the Churston Field. (Click on the image to see how to get there).
Membership of Brixham Archers includes social membership of the Cricket Club which entitles us to use their Club House facilities.
Our alternative Target Archery site is at Churston, adjacent to the Grammar School. We are fortunate to be able to use this field at any time of the week, as long as the usual safety regulations are observed. (Click on the image to see how to get there).
During the late autumm and winter months we shoot indoors at Churston Grammar School sports hall. We shoot here on a Tuesday and Friday evening (school holidays permitting). We also hold out indoor shoot at this location in February
(Click on the image to see how to get there).
We also have an excellent Field Archery course laid out at a local woods. See the field archery page for more info. This can be shot by prior arrangement with our Field Organiser.
