Bridge Woods Field Archery Club

General Information About The Club

Club History

The Club was formed in 1991, when it used part of 'Bridge Woods' near Blue Bell Hill in Kent (hence the club name).

Due to construction of the Channel Tunnel Rail link, the Club moved to their present site at Beacon Hill, Chattenden, near Rochester, in Kent.

Affiliation

We are affiliated to the National Field Archery Society (NFAS), and welcome any archer  who wishes to shoot any bowstyle, except crossbow.

 Otherwise, if you want to try archery, we can teach you.

The Club

The Club currently has a double loop course of approximately 40 targets, ranging from 10yds to 80yds. 

We mostly use faces suitable for shooting the NFAS Game rounds.

In 2003 we received a Lottery 'Awards for All' grant, and spent 2004 on improving facilities, so now also have an 8 target training / disabled friendly course, laid out around tarmac; a composting toilet (we don't have power or water / main drainage to the site) - this is large enough to take a wheel-chair; a good range of training bows; and also some 3-D targets (these only make an appearance on 'Club Sundays' though).

If you are interested in joining us, go to 'How to Join' - Hope to hear from you.
