Rules for Safe Shooting

Archery takes its roots from hunting and battles. Today's modern equipment can be even more powerful and accurate. Therefore rules have been introduced to make archery a safe and enjoyable sport.

Make sure you know the following (if you don't then ask)

• Shooting line.
• Waiting line.
• Whistles, signals and FAST.
• Load only at the shooting line.
• Point only down range.
• Never shoot if anyone is in front of the shooting line.
• Never dry shoot.
• Respect for other archers.
• There must be 2 adults present at all times.

Shooting with the Royston Heath Archery Club is a privilege which if abused will be revoked.
