# Royston Heath Archery Club
Royston Heath Archery Club is a welcoming target archery club based in Royston, Hertfordshire, serving approximately 40 members and newcomers to the sport. The club caters to archers of all bow disciplines, including recurve, longbow, barebow and compound shooting, accommodating both absolute beginners and experienced competitors.
The club operates two Target Days per week where members shoot recognised rounds under Archery GB rules, enabling them to develop handicaps and pursue various awards and classifications. This structured approach provides both casual recreational shooting and a pathway to competitive archery, with members regularly participating in local competitions and inter-county fixtures representing Hertfordshire.
What distinguishes Royston Heath is their strong coaching infrastructure and community focus. The club boasts three Archery GB-qualified coaches—including a Level 2 Development Coach and two Level 1 Session Coaches—alongside experienced archers who actively mentor members' progression. This investment in instruction ensures quality tuition regardless of experience level.
The club actively welcomes returning archers through their "Range Returners" programme, offering refresher sessions to help lapsed shooters regain their skills quickly. Their affiliation with Archery GB ensures all activity is properly insured and conducted to national standards.
Beyond the outdoor range itself, Royston Heath provides a genuine community atmosphere where members enthusiastically share knowledge and introduce newcomers to archery. Whether pursuing competitive glory, recreational shooting, or simply reconnecting with the sport, the club offers structured progression opportunities combined with genuine friendliness.
