To ALL Bedfordshire County archers.
It seems we are going in the right direction with archery in the county. There has been a steady increase in numbers of archers attending the County Archery Get Togethers (CAGT`s) during 2024. Lets try and keep the momentum going in 2025.
If you are intending to join in the fun at any of the CAGt`s below please let the host know by sending an email.

Sept 13th CAGT
Judge available. Club and organiser needed.
Note.
CAGT`s. We will be shooting a short, age/ability appropriate round under the direction of Brian Dunlop and Pat Kerrigan.
The format of the event will be a short round and then time afterwards to talk to other archers and the Team Managers about any archery help/advice you would like going forward. If time permits there will be a H2H which proved to be very popular in the past, this is not compulsory.
For those of you who haven`t experienced shooting a competition this is for you, and for those of you who are experienced we`re hoping you’ll be willing and able to help any newcomers. If you have anything specific you would like to work on or want help with this is an ideal opportunity, in particular for the parents of juniors to perhaps unravel some of the mysteries.
If there are any coaches who would like to attend please let us know, similarly any archers who feel they could help those needing a hand would be more than welcome to attend. You may even get a biscuit or two.
