Archery

Learn to shoot a bow at targets, with a coach, on a range or at your venue. You start with a short safety briefing and a lesson on stance and aim. Then you shoot at targets set at a safe distance, with a coach watching each lane.

Groups often finish with a small competition. Some providers also offer Archery Tag, where teams shoot foam tipped arrows at each other behind inflatable cover.
