2024 Outdoor season restarts with improved shooting line access for wheelchairs

Posted on by

The outdoor season was greeted by heavy rain, tidying out the kit store and installation of some new matting to improve wheelchair access to the shooting line. The latter activity was not without incident as it needed two local farmers trying three different vehicles to help us out of a muddy situation! Huge appreciation to Wicken Toys Ltd at Hurst Farm and Folly Fields Farm for their prompt support on a wet April Saturday.

As a reminder we shoot Sunday afternoons (from about 13:30), and Monday and Tuesday evenings (from about 17:30) at Wicken Sports Club Field.

Fancy starting archery as something new for the forthcoming sunny weather (surely it can’t rain _all_ year?!) then see earlier posts below for our Beginner’s Courses.
