252 badges

We have a new progression award for the outdoor season along with a series of badges to collect. Once you have been able to  score a score of 252 at a given distance on 2 occasions you can claim a new badge**.

This is a great way for both beginners and experienced archers to improve their consistency and to know when they are ready to move to the next distance.

All of the details you need about this award i.e. the rules and to download a scoresheet can be found if you visit our Getting Better page. If you are looking to bag that purple (the highest award) you need to get started soon … we only have 5 and at least 6 archers are chasing them like their lives depended on getting it!

A big thank you to our very own Catherine for organising this new progression award.

** badges cost a small monetary fee but what is mere grubby cash when you can own such gorgeousness to remind you of the struggle, the anguish and eventual triumph!
