Archery and Bowhunting: Frequently Asked Questions

15. How do I start/join a club?

To join a club, visit with your local archery retailer about the names and locations of clubs in your area. Once you have identified some local club names, check the internet-many clubs now have websites that give directions to the club and display scheduled events. Attend an event and introduce yourself as a new archer who would like to possibly join. The club representative can give you information on any club dues as well as club meetings that you might attend to get to know the other club members.

There are several national archery organizations that offer starter packets on forming new archery clubs. Check out their websites for information on registering a new club with them.
