Description:

Fall Archery League: A Community of Fun and Friendly Competition

Our members-only archery league offers the best of both a club and a competition experience. Whether you’re new to archery or a seasoned pro, the League is a fantastic opportunity to meet fellow archers, learn from one another, and build a supportive archery community. All ages and skill levels are welcome, and we encourage everyone to join, no matter your experience.

League Structure:
The Fall Archery League will run for 6 consecutive weeks. League nights take place every Thursday from 5pm-7pm. During each week, participants will fill out a scorecard when they come to the range, and scores will be tallied at the end of the season. Winners in each division and class will be announced at the awards night.

Flexibility for Your Schedule:
Participate on your own schedule! You’re welcome to come in anytime during the League week (Wednesday-Sunday) to complete your scorecard. Whether you’re shooting after work or on the weekend, we make it easy to fit archery into your life.

Scoring:
Your final score for the League will be based on your top 4 scores. The two weeks with your lowest scores will be dropped, allowing more flexibility and the opportunity to improve throughout the season.
