All club members will be invited to the Annual General Meeting, which is held in Petersfield each October/November. The club is administered by a Committee which is elected by the AGM. Any club member can apply to join the committee at the AGM. A copy of our constitution is available here.

If you are interested in joining us then please contact the secretary who can give you more details of our membership.


Only experienced archers, including those who have recently completed a beginners course with another club are able to join directly. Anyone else interested in joining the club will be asked to complete the beginners course before their membership will be accepted.

The club subscription fee is due annually by the 1st October and we ask for all renewals to be made by mid September. There is a reduced fee available for those joining part way through the year, but this is not available to lapsed members rejoining within 18 months.

Target fees

As well as the membership fee, we charge members a Target Fee at each shooting session to cover the cost of the hire of the facilities.

Our target fees for members shooting indoors are:

£5.00 - Senior (Members)
£2.50 - Juniors (Members)

Our target fees for members shooting outdoors are:

£2.00 - Senior (Members)
£1.00 - Juniors (Members)

Members of other clubs are welcome to shoot with us as a guest and will be charged double the members target fee, ie £10 for indoor and £4 for outdoor sessions. The charge does not apply at the Annual Club Open Tournament (Saint and Halo Shoot), where an entry fee is charged instead and it does not apply to those on the beginners course, where it is included in the overall course fee.

Please note that the fees quoted above are for guidance only and should be confirmed with the club committee before any payment is made. All fees are subject to change at the discretion of the club or affiliating body.
