This section is mainly concerned with archery in the UK although much of the information will be relevent in other countries.

Archery is certainly one of the world's oldest sports, yet in its highly modern form it is one of the most universal. Neither age nor gender is a barrier to enjoying this fascinating and sophisticated sport.

Good technique rather than physical strength is the key to attaining a good standard and many disabled people shoot on equal terms with the able bodied.

Anyone interested in taking up the sport is advised to contact their local club, details of Norfolk clubs are available on the club pages accessible from the Norfolk Archery Association page.
