< 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 Evesham archers shoot to success in Junior Nationals Evesham Juniors represent the club on the national stage! 2 July 2023 Saturday 1st and Sunday 2nd saw the meeting of the best junior archers from around the nation at Lilleshall National Sport Centre for the Junior National Outdoor Championships (J.N.O.C.). In attendance for the Saturday- Metrics day- was Evesham's Alex Shehata-Morgan who shot a gruelling twelve-dozen despite some unpleasant wind, ending up with a fantastic 4th place and 1092 score in the Gent's recurve under 18 category. Alex returned to the field of play on the Sunday for the championship Bristol rounds, joined by fellow Evesham junior Luke Wilson who missed the first day due to prior commitments. The two archers shot twelve dozen but early disaster befell Alex when an equipment failure struck. Fortunately, the issue was repaired after the first three dozen. Phew! The rest of the day proceeded without much incident, eventually culminating with the awards ceremony. Both finished in the top ten, Alex taking eight place with a score of 911. Luke, competing in the under 18 gents compound, achieved a score of 1112, which was enough to give him a bronze medal for the event! Well done to both archers for an amazing performance!

< Back Sixty Years Young Celebrations as Evesham Archery Club turns 60! 5 August 2023 Saturday the fifth of August was a momentous milestone for the club as we celebrated sixty years since our founding! The slightly miserable weather of the day didn’t hamper the spirits of the archers who turned out to help mark the special occasion. The day started with a generous gift of some od waterproof target faces from Mike Gilder- that’s my shooting sorted for the next few weeks! Continuing on from that, after some hearty encouragement from our club chairman, Ian Tilston, the beginners’ bows were handed out to all archers present. Boasting twenty pounds, no sights, no stabilisers, no finger tabs (ouch!), the archers shot valiantly. At ten-yard targets. Compound shooter Alfie Wilkes was especially thrilled by the barebow experience- can’t wait to see how long that lasts! Having completely mastered barebow, the assortment of-typically-compound-or-recurve-shooting archers (and our good chairman) decided to have a go at a short distance clout. With truly horrific form and after an executive decision from Mr. Tilston to shift the target closer to his grouping, we launched volley after volley down the field, coming close to striking the post several times. A special mention has to be given to Pete Williams who managed to have a group of less than a square yard, even if it was on the edge of the field! After the competition of the shooting portion of the day, archers retreated into the club bar to hide from approaching rain. There was a barbeque kindly prepared by the Recreation Club staff- thanks for the great burgers! Finally came the wonderful cake proudly emblazoned with the club logo, prepared by the wonderful skill of Sarah Trout. All in all, despite the slightly limited turnout, the day was a great success and everyone present had a great time! We hope to see even more club members for the seventieth anniversary!

< 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
