Braintree Bowmen is an archery club based near Braintree and open to anyone over the age of 8, supporting all levels from beginners to the experienced.

We have over 100 members and cater for those who prefer the social aspect in addition to providing access to qualified coaches and actively encouraging archers who want to compete at any level. We pride ourselves on our friendly atmosphere and host several club only fun competitions and social activities throughout the year.

We shoot indoors from October to March and move outside from April to the end of September. As well as club sessions and social evenings, we host several open tournaments throughout the year as well as two 3D field shoots.

If you’ve ever thought of having a go at archery we offer taster sessions and beginners courses. Head to our website and click on the beginners page to book and come along to have a go!

The current beginners courses are 6 hours of tuition over two weeks. The aim of the course is to teach each and every beginner how to safely shoot on the line, using the correct basic techniques, and to have some fun learning.

The TT Club operates as an all inclusive club and is part of the British Gymnastics 'I'm In' initiative which aims to encourage people with disability and learning difficulties to participate in the sport, by providing a fun, safe and stimulating environment.

We do our very best to cater to the needs of the participant and work alongside parents and carers to enable us to make targets and to monitor progress. We cater for a variety of disabilities and different severities and currently have a number of disabled members.

Wheelchair boxing.

Using the World Boxing Council's new 'Safer Adaptive Boxing' programme the WBC has adapted boxing to accommodate disabled boxers.

By focusing on block and defence tactics this version of the sport allows boxers that live with a disability the opportunity to benefit from the physical and mental benefits that boxing has to offer.

These benefits include but are not limited to confidence, fitness, independence, control.
