< Back New Years Clout shoot The results of target archers trying their hand at a fun, social clout! 1 January 2023 On New Years Day, 13 archers and one spectator/supporter turned up despite the wind to participate in the Clout shoot. The goal was to get an arrow within 3.5m of the clout flag, shooting from 180 yards for men and 140 yards for women (and one junior). For many participants, it was the first time taking part in a clout shoot, but the more experienced people gave some useful advice - which mostly involved aiming up into the sky above the tree line, and hoping for the best! In third place, we had newcomer Callum with 36 points (14 hits). The top spot was hotly contended with a 2-point difference, but in the end it was Sarah in second place with 76 points (26 hits), while Sally took home the lovely little trophy with 78 points (25 hits).

< Back New Years Round-up A quick summary of the huge number of events happened this new years! 1 February 2024 2024 was heralded in by the annual New Year’s Day Clout Shoot over at Evesham Archery Club. A Clout shoot involves archers being stood a fair distance- 180 yards for women and 200 yards for men- from a flag stuck in the ground. Archers must try and shoot as close to the flag as possible, with concentric scoring zones spreading out from it. The distance means archers have to shoot high in the sky to try and get the arrows in the scoring zones. Much fun was had by all, despite a fair few misses. Fortunately, all of the arrows were returned to their owners this year! The 21st of January saw the Club’s- slightly belated- New Year’s meal at the Badsey Rec’ Club. Forty members of the club turned out, new and old alike, to have a drink at the bar and socialise, followed by digging into jacket potatoes kindly organised by the club County Rep., Saskia Bakker. Thanks Saskia! Then came the desserts provided by members of the club, a huge selection of some very delicious cakes. Then, while everyone was digging in, the Club chair took to the stage to make presentations to some of the members present for achievements throughout the year. A special mention has to go to Pete Williams for setting a new national record! At the start of the February, Evesham hosted another outstanding tournament in the form of the annual World Record Status WA18 shoot. This year saw archers from as far a field as Italy turn out to shoot in the sports hall at Prince Henry’s High School. A huge thank you goes out to all of the field crew who helped set up and take down the event on the Saturday and Sunday evenings. A special thank you also to the club tournament organiser Laurence Fletcher, Cathy Davis who organised the scoring for the whole day, and the team of judges; Andrew Stanford, Jasmine Simpson, and Luke Wilson. And congratulations to the day’s winners; Edward Grey (Men's Recurve), Evesham's Sally Hallard (Women's Recurve), Yu Chak Ngai (Men's Compound), Evesham's Jacquie Holmes (Women's Compound), Chrisopher Morris (Barebow Men), and Isabel Plowman (Women's Barebow). A final congratulations to Alex Shehata-Morgan for his performance at the County Junior Championships, placing a respectable second to international archer Charlie Medhurst. Previous Next

< Back 2023 AGM Events Keeping up to date with all the happennings at the 2023 AGM! 31 March 2023 Thursday 23rd of March saw members of the clubs assemble at the Badsey Recreation Club to discuss the goings on of the year. The evening started with the officers' reports from the year. Chairman Ian Tilston and President Ian Trout spoke about the club's various events and achievements over the last twelve months, from the new roof over the storage container to the National Tour Stage. The pride from both was palpable. The A.G.M. is also when the new committee is elected to sit for the new year. Most of the familiar faces chose to stay on, with the only change being the election of new publicity officers. The meeting drew to a close after this, and so began the presentations for the evening. A myriad of archers won awards throughout the evening. A list of everything won throughout the evening will be coming to the website soon however I have composed some highlights here. Starting off with the biggest award of the night: the Victor Ludorum. This trophy is awarded for a member who has consistently posted high scores in club competitions- like the Ian Trout Warwick series or the Club Championships- as well as county shoots and postal leagues. This beautiful trophy was won by Saskia Bakker with a total of 268 points, beating joint seconds Jacquie Holmes and Sarah Trout by just 7 points! This was only one of thirteen awards swept up by Saskia, great stuff! It was also a good evening for Luke Wilson, winning six awards. These included the Junior Bowman Award and the club Beginner's award. Joining Saskia and Luke with a small pile of medals was Jacquie Holmes who claimed First for Ladies Compound in the outdoor and indoor club champs, and the Bill Clemson Portsmouths. In the end, Jacquie left with five awards. Alex Shehata-Morgan, who claimed the Junior Handicap Improvement Trophy as well as first in both the indoor and outdoor club championships also won five awards! All that remains now is to see who will come to claim these awards next year! Previous Next
