Junior Archers & Eccles Archery Club

For safety, insurance and child protection reasons, as well as the Archery UK Rules of Shooting, no archery club will allow under 18s to shoot by themselves.

Unlike most clubs, at EAC we have 24/7 access and there are no set times for shooting. This has caused problems in the past - including frustration for the juniors - and we now insist that all juniors have a parent or designated guardian who is both a qualified archer and a full shooting member of EAC.

Therefore, if a junior wants to take the beginners course then a parent or guardian must also take the lessons. Similarly, if a junior wants to join the club, then a parent or guardian must also join the club as a full shooting member.

Presently EAC cannot accept juniors under the age of 10 years for training.
