During the two days there will be tournaments in the mornings and the 'Have a go' sections will be open to all in the afternoon from 2pm - 5.30pm. If you wish to follow this sport in all its forms, the best way is to contact your local archery club for information or speak to one of the Norfolk Archery Association's club members at the show.

Archery is one of the oldest known sports. The bow, as an effective long-range weapon, contributed to the early survival of man, supplying him with meat, leather and fur for clothing, as well as a means of both attack and defence when facing enemies.

It is one of the competitive sports in which the wheel-chair bound and handicapped can partake and be on equal terms with able bodied sports men and women. This was endorsed last year when Mel Clark, a member of Taverham Archers, came back from the Beijing Paralympic Games with a bronze medal. It is one of the sporting activities used at Stoke Mandeville Hospital for the rehabilitation of people with paraplegic injuries.
