Hampshire Archery Association is the home of archery in Hampshire, UK. The Association is affiliated to SCAS (Southern Counties Archery Society) and GNAS (Grand National Archery Society) who are the governing body for the sport in the UK.
Archery is a sport for all ages and abilities and is great for families. There are over 50 archery clubs in Hampshire and most offer beginners courses. If you interested in trying archery get in touch with one of the clubs listed here.
The most recent edition of Archery UK (Winter 2011/12) included proposed changes to the Rules of Shooting to include American Flat Bow (AFB) as a shooting style for Target, Field and Flight archery (p65).
After email correspondence with GNAS I have been advised that an Operations Meeting on the 7th of January approved the AFB for Field and Flight but not yet for Target and Clout. Additionally:
In line with this, HAA will recognise Field and Flight records shot on or after the 1st April 2012. An amended record claim form will be posted in due course.
