# Corus Deeside Archery Club
Corus Deeside Archery Club, based in Connah's Quay, is an ArcheryGB-affiliated club dedicated to developing archers of all abilities in North Wales. They operate from indoor facilities at Coleg Cambria Deeside and serve both beginners and experienced archers seeking structured coaching and competitive opportunities.
The club distinguishes itself through qualified instruction, having recently welcomed Graeme Parry as a Level 1 ArcheryGB Coach. They provide comprehensive beginner courses spanning 9 hours across weekends, with all equipment supplied—removing financial barriers for newcomers. Their approach emphasises proper bone-on-bone alignment and foundational drills rather than rushing into competition.
Beyond tuition, the club organises significant competitive events, including the annual Corus Indoor Tournament (which doubles as the North Wales Indoor Championships) and World Record Status shoots administered through Ianseo. They provide structured scoresheet systems for both indoor and outdoor rounds, ensuring members can track progress systematically.
What sets them apart is their practical, welcoming ethos. They actively discourage premature equipment purchases, offering instead expert guidance on suitable gear once technique foundations are established. The club emphasises accessibility, hosting courses in covered indoor facilities to eliminate weather concerns and clearly communicating practical requirements (close-fitting tops, appropriate footwear) rather than assuming knowledge.
Corus Deeside serves serious competitive archers and curious beginners alike, fostering a community where technical excellence and inclusive participation coexist.
