The Eco Shoot was held. 20 archers took part with 4 non-shooting captains. This fun event was shot barebow and was the result of an original idea from Ophelia Clarke, aided and abetted most ably by Jem Mason. The event aimed (sic) to raise awareness of ecological issues and the need to address climate change.

A successful pilot of the new format of Taster sessions was completed with 9 people attending. The plan is to roll out more sessions as demand arises.
A small number gathered for the annual Chapatti Shoot on 27th Dec 2021. This year we replaced the previous 30m round with a WA25 (5 Dozen at 25m). The Chapatti (Chocolate Cowpat) Cake was won by Bryan Garney for the highest score (414) pipping Roisheen by only 1 point. Mild weather, mulled wine and music were enjoyed by all.
