Erina Archery Club Inc. is the Central Coast's largest archery club, located in Erina, New South Wales. The club welcomes archers of all ages and skill levels, offering a range of disciplines including target archery, recurve, longbow, and compound.
Weekly target shoots are held at the club's archery field, which is conveniently located adjacent to the Erina Leagues Club, the club's major sponsor. In addition to the regular target shoots, Erina Archery Club also organises field shoots in collaboration with Westlakes Archers at Fassifern.
With over 100 members ranging in age from 8 to 80, the club boasts a diverse and inclusive community. Some members of the club participate in interclub, state, national, and even international tournaments, with many holding National and State Tournament records. However, there are also many members who simply enjoy archery as a recreational activity and for the social benefits it offers.
For those interested in taking up archery as a sport, Erina Archery Club offers a Beginners Course section on their website, providing details on how to get started. Visitors are also welcome to attend the weekly shoots, which typically commence at 9 am on Saturday mornings at the Erina archery field.
Erina Archery Club has a rich history, with its origins dating back to the early 1960s when it was known as Gosford Archery Club. Shooting sessions were originally held at the Jus-Fruit Park near Henry Kendall's Cottage in West Gosford. As the area developed, the club had to relocate several times before settling in Erina.
Whether you're a seasoned archer or new to the sport, Erina Archery Club offers a welcoming and supportive environment for all. Join them today to experience the thrill of archery and be part of a vibrant and passionate community.
