Elswood Bowmen

Elswood shoots in the summer at Highfield Park, St Albans from April to September, many evenings and almost every Saturday. Feel free to pop down to Highfield Park and chat. (come down the drive all the way to the second car park). Elswood also shoots throughout the winter.

Coaching Statement and Contacts:
There are 3 current coaches in the club: Nick Lockett (who is currently doing a Level 2 course), James Jackson, and John Kersey. There is also a retired coach who is Bruce Lindsell who is Club President.
All coaches are happy to coach anyone in the club and all coaching is done completely on a voluntary basis.
General Coaching is obtained by putting a message in the Club’s group whatsapp with the date that you would like coaching and one of us will send you a message back if we are free.
If club members have a specific person that they would like to coach them, then private messages are exchanged and dates for coaching organised. Coaches all understand that some people prefer to be coached by a specific person and will not be offended at all if you would prefer to be coached by a specific person. The coaches will advise each other about any specific coaching as it is protocol that if a specific coach is appointed then only that coach coaches the archer.
Please remember that all coaches have been taught to not coach anyone unless specifically asked by the archer, because a lot of people like to shoot without being disturbed by coaches offering advice.
…but the coaches are always happy to help so if you have any questions or would like to be coached, please do ask.
