NoticeBoard
Page has been added for all news and upcoming events.
Please make sure to read the Club Noticeboard for details.
About Our Club's Web Site
We are a Target Archery Club and so this site is mainly dedicated to this
branch of the sport.
It is a site produced by Archers, for Archers and for those people who are interested
in finding out what the Sport of Archery is all about.
If you want to find out how to shoot a bow, where your nearest Archery Club is,
what a 'nock' is or when was the 'Battle of Agincourt', then this is where you
will find it.
If you can't find the information you are after, then just leave a e-mail and we
will track it down for you.
Club's Location
The Club is located in Wacol
Station Road Park, Wacol Station Road, in the
suburb of Sumner, Brisbane, Queensland, Australia.
You can find the location in
the Brisbane 2008 UBD Street Directory, Map No. 197, grid reference
E, 13.
( Centenary Archers Club is now shown on the
map ).
'Google Earth' location : 27°33'52.33"
S / 152°55'24.14" E.
The entry gate
to the Park is located on the east side of the road
beside a cream coloured weatherboard hut.
Our Club signboard will be out beside the entry gate - it's hard to miss with a
target on it !

Please keep marked access ways clear to the ranges.
Club's Facilities
The cream coloured
weatherboard hut is our Club's Office and meeting room, where we have our
noticeboards and attendance register.
It is also the classroom for our Beginners Courses.
The southern archery range is for the Club's scheduled competitions and storage
facilities.
The western archery range is for the Club Members practise and bow tuning, and
for Beginners Courses.
There are no toilet facilities currently available in the Park. The nearest
public toilet is in the shopping centre located on the corner of Wacol Station
Road and Sumner Road. ( a 3 to 5 minute up-hill walk from the Park entry gate ).
Club's Meeting Hours
The Club currently meets every Saturday afternoon from 1.00pm to 5.00pm, throughout most of the year, with a short break over the Christmas holidays. Shooting on the ranges starts at 1.30pm for scheduled Club competitions.
Courses for Beginners
For anyone who wants to learn how to shoot a bow, the Club has suitable bows
and arrows for hire and qualified Coaches to instruct the basics of shooting.
