Archery in Scotland
Archery in Scotland can be enjoyed by almost everybody whether they are able-bodied, or have a disability, although clients with particular needs should contact MRM Archery in advance to discuss their requirements. We are experienced in teaching people with a range of physical and learning disabilities and sensory impairment. People of all ages can try archery although we recommend a minimum age of approx. 12 years old for our beginners courses.
We are a mobile business and can support you at your own venue, a venue of your choice or provide you with one of three fantastic venues in Central Scotland - they are all within easy reach of Glasgow and Edinburgh. Whilst we provide archery in Scotland we will also travel throughout the UK. We provide all the archery equipment needed eg targets, bows, arrows etc. In addition to providing a full safety briefing, archery instruction and tuition we will undertake a risk assessment of your venue and provide you with a full written report.
Archery Classes & Lessons
Our archery classes and lessons are fun sessions which last approximately 1 hour. They are provided at our own venues, or a venue of your choice, and are specifically aimed at those who have little or no experience in archery. At our classes you will learn about the equipment we use and the basics of how to shoot a bow safely and effectively - you will be surprised by how quickly you will hit the target. Our classes can add a real fun element and challenge to corporate events, school activities, children's parties and stag and hen parties. In partnership with the venues we work with we can put together a package of various activities for your group - just contact us and we can discuss what's on offer.
