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 UBD Street Directory, Map No. 197, grid reference E, 13.
