Established in 2001, The High Weald Archery Club offers an indoor range with up to 30m shooting distance, an outdoor range with up to 90m shooting and a field course. Located in the village of Hurst Green, East Sussex, just off the A21, the club is ideally situated for archers from East Sussex and Kent.
We are a friendly, all abilities club offering full and associate memberships to archers shooting all bowstyles (exc. cross bow), as well as beginner courses for new archers and coaching for improvers.
It is an ArcheryGB requirement that all archers wishing to join an affiliated archery club have completed a formal beginner course of minimum 12 hours duration.
Our Beginner Course will provide you with a comprehensive introduction to modern archery, including shooting technique (recurve barebow and freestyle), shooting line etiquette and range safety. We provide all necessary equipment for the duration of the course and are fully insured. You would just need to wear appropriate clothing, and we will take care of the rest.
The courses will be run by one of our Archery GB qualified coaches, and successful completion will enable you to join THWAC as a full member with access to the club's indoor and outdoor target ranges from 7am to 11pm almost 365 days a year.
Archery is extremely inclusive regardless of age or physical ability, though we currently have a lower age limit of 12 years. Children under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian at each session and at all times when visiting the club.
It is important to advise our coaches of any physical, mental, or medical condition, or medication which may affect or inhibit your archery, in order to give you the best chance of achieving your full potential.
The fee for the course is currently £65 (adult or junior) and is payable in advance.
We are currently planning to run beginners courses for the following dates:

All new memberships are subject to approval.
