We currently shoot at the De La Salle Association grounds. The grounds are in very pleasant, quiet surroundings and we have access to shoot four days a week.

The De La Salle grounds are located near Beauchief Abbey on Beauchief Abbey Lane in Sheffield. This road can only be accessed from Abbey Lane. Once on Beauchief Abbey Lane follow it to the top where you will find the circled area where we shoot. For sat nav users put in the postcode S8 0ER, this is for Folds Lane which is directly opposite Beauchief Abbey Lane.

We hold several competitions a year, with three of these being open shoots and the rest club shoots. The open shoots are the longbow tournament, the potato shoot and the rose award shoot. The club shoots include the club championships, the wicker arrow aimed at beginners, the field and clout shoots and many other fun shoots throughout the year.

We welcome new members and hold two beginners courses a year, but places for these fill up quickly. We can accomodate you if you cannot attend one of the beginners courses, just contact us and we will be happy to discuss options with you.

We have a very varied spectrum of members but we all know how to have a laugh so you'll never be bored on the shooting line, and if you need any help there is always someone willing to lend a hand, whether it's with your shooting technique, bow maintenance or indeed anything you can think of, even if it's not to do with archery.
