# Bitton Archers
Bitton Archers is a target archery club based in Bath that welcomes everyone from complete beginners to seasoned archers. The club caters to a diverse membership spanning ages under 10 to over 70, offering inclusive coaching and participation opportunities across multiple archery disciplines including compound, recurve, longbow, flatbow, horse bow and barebow styles.
The club operates from two strategic locations: year-round outdoor shooting at Stothert & Pitt RFC on the A4 near Saltford and Corston, with an additional indoor facility at The Park Centre on Daventry Road in Knowle during the winter months (October to March). This dual-location approach enables members to shoot consistently throughout the year regardless of weather conditions.
What sets Bitton Archers apart is its strong coaching infrastructure. The club boasts one County Level coach and eight Level 1 qualified coaches, ensuring quality instruction tailored to individual skill levels and bow preferences. The emphasis on fair treatment, duty of care and community engagement demonstrates a genuine commitment to fostering an inclusive, welcoming environment rather than an elite-focused club.
The club's accessibility is particularly notable—members can pursue different archery styles within the same community, and the wide age range creates a multigenerational atmosphere. The combination of professional coaching credentials, flexible shooting locations, year-round access and explicit commitment to fairness and equal treatment makes Bitton Archers a distinctive offering in the local archery scene.
