Fees

Wicken Archery Club membership fees for 2023/24 are set at £18 per month for Adult members, and £7.75 per month for Juniors. This includes membership to Archery GB and covers both indoor and outdoor shooting for the season. 

Visiting archers can also join on an ad hoc basis for £18 per month, so long as they have a valid Archery GB membership in place with another club.

Membership fees are reviewed at the AGM in August and subject to change for the following year.

Coaching

Wicken Archery Club now has two Level 2 Development coaches and 5 Level 1 Session coaches who are all actively involved in delivering beginners’ courses and supporting club nights.

Accessibility

Archery is accessible and inclusive; Wicken Archery Club aims to support all those who wish to participate in the sport. We have some experience with wheelchair-based archery and are actively looking to improve our provision in this area – if you have a specialist requirement or want to ask questions please use our Contact page.
