Over the summer, WAA organised and funded a level 1 coaching course which was attended by archers from across our region.

We are pleased to say that the course was successful and we would like to congratulate the following new level 1 coaches:

Rainer Gottchsell

TJ Furniss

Matthew Neve

Nigel Farr

Jane Downer

Jan Mainwaring

Darran Cooke

We would also like to wish the following archers good luck when they complete their assessment later in the year:

Welsh Archery Association have purchased 2 sets of timing light systems manufactured by Chronotir. These can be used by any Welsh club in Wales during an advertised tournament, free of charge. These systems are compliant for all UK and World Record status tournaments. 

One set are held by Gronant Bowmen and one set held by Wales Archery specialist. They can be booked out to any club who are holding a tournament and returned within 5 days. I’m afraid if they are returned damaged the cost for their repair will be charged to the offending club.  

Please make use of this brilliant system supporting WAA and all our clubs improve the competition experience within our region.

Steve Edwards

WAA Treasurer

WAA Council Nominations

As part of the meeting, nominations are invited for the posts of Chairman and Vice-Chairman of the Welsh Archery Association. 

The current Chair, Darran Cooke will be standing for re-election but the post of Vice-Chair is vacant.

Both roles are for a 4 year period, however the role of Vice-Chair will initially be for 2 years to ensure we are not in a position where we are left without a Chair or Vice-Chair at the same time in the future.

If you are interested in these posts or putting forward a nomination, please contact Darran Cooke or Collette Webster.
