David Quemby Continues Onwards and Upwards

David Quemby has continued to break and set new Compound club records. His latest achievements are a new Club Record for the Hereford Round in the Tri-Counties Match at Long Buckby on 2nd October achieving a score of 1206.

On 16th October at Kettering Archers in a Worcester Indoor Competition he set a new Club Record of 293 out of a possible 300, beating his previous club record of 274 set in January this year. This puts David well and truly up with the best of the County Archers. In his second attempt at the Worcester at Kettering, he scored a fantastic 298 – just 2 short of a perfect 300. Unfortunately he is unable to claim this as a record as it was his second shoot of the day. Well done David.

Tuesday Shooting is back

News hot off the press tonight. Tuesday shooting has just been agreed at Carlsberg club for the winter session.

The Carlsberg Committee have offered NAC the chance to shoot on Tuesday Evenings throughout the winter . This will be available from next week, 25th October 2011. The cost will be the same as Thursdays, £3 Adults, £2 Juniors, 50p suppliment for guests.

Don’t forget we now have a Compound ‘H’ stand at both our venues to ensure members arrows don’t get damaged. Hope to see you there next week.

John Ashby Sports Hall

Saturday 8th October 2011 saw NAC begin shooting at a brand new venue. John Ashby Sports Hall at Moulton College is the biggest indoor venue the club has ever shot at. Its longer (we can comnfortably shoot a 25 yrd Bray round) and wider (we can fit up to 8 butts and 16 targets) with plenty of space for up to 50 archers and all their equipment. The first session began a few minutes late at 11am. Dave Stephens, pictured here, had the pleasure of shooting the first arrow. Around 30 members enjoyed shooting 20 yards indoors for the first time. All things being well we’ll look at a members indoor competition in December and perhaps an indoor open in 2012 if we can find a slot in the county calendar. Hopefully they’ll be an album of memories from this day posted very soon.
