The K2

Everyone who took part in the 2009 Indoor Championships will agree that the K2 is a really cracking venue, one of the best available to archers in the Southern Counties region, and we’re sure that you will enjoy shooting there. It is also easily accessible from both the A23 and M23, so the travelling distance and time for every archer within the SCAS region is reasonable.

The venue’s facilities, including the cafeteria, will be open all day. The main hall is spacious, warm and well lit, making it the ideal venue for indoor archery. It can accommodate 32 target butts – that’s 128 archers – in each session, so this will again be a big and memorable event.

Don’t miss out on what will be an excellent conclusion to this year’s indoor season: download your entry form and post it to the Tournament Organiser today.

2010 Sussex CAA Indoor Team Championships

The 2010 Sussex Indoor Team Championships will take place at the K2 after the SCAS and SCAA Championships. This competition is open to clubs from outside Sussex.

In 2008, the first year of the competition, Canterbury Archers of Kent and Mole Valley Bowmen of Surrey finished second and third respectively in a field of 19 teams. 2009 saw the entry grow to 24 teams, with Mole Valley A emerging as winners on tie break ahead of Abbey Bowmen from Hertfordshire on tie break. Dare we say it, but the tournament has proved to be very enjoyable for everyone who has taken part over the last two years and we hope to see more clubs from outside Sussex at the 2010 Championships.

Further details and entry forms will be published soon, so please add this page to your favourites and check for updates in a few days.
