Alsager Company of Archers
© Alsager Company of Archers 2021
Alsager
Company
of
Archers
is
an
Archery
Club,
with
a
current
membership
of
around
75
members,
is
located
on
the
outskirts
of
the
South
Cheshire
town
of
Alsager that borders with Staffordshire.
The
Club
encourages
the
bow
disciplines
of
Recurve
(as
used
in
the
Olympics),
Compound,
traditional
Longbow
and
the
barebow
for
all
the
family
in
a
friendly, but competitive environment.
We continue to enjoy a reputation within the County of Cheshire for producing
top class Archers, both at Senior and Junior level, which have not only gone on
to represent the County, but have represented the region and Great Britain at
International Level in the past. Some names who have represented Great
Britain include Sylvia Harris, Matthew Gray, Andrew Lewis and Mike Wheeler.
Our
current
star
is
Thomas
Nairn,
who
early
in
May
2016,
shot
for
Great
Britain
in
the
European
Youth
Cup
that
was
staged
in
Hungary.
Thomas
won
the
Silver
medal
in
the
Mixed
Recurve
Cadet
Team.
His
aim
(no
pun
intended)
is
to
be
selected for the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo.
The
aim
of
this
website
is
to
provide
easily
accessible
information
about
the
club and the fascinating sport of Archery.
