Encouraging Women into Archery
The BBC feature put a spotlight on our dedication to breaking down barriers for women in sport. Through female-only sessions and community outreach, we aim to create a safe, supportive, and empowering environment where women and girls can explore the art of archery.
We believe that archery is not just a sport — it’s a pathway to confidence, discipline, and personal growth. By offering tailored sessions, we are ensuring that more women feel welcomed and able to participate fully.
Recognition for Our Mission
This recognition from the BBC is a testament to the incredible work of our coaches, volunteers, and community members who all play a part in making Crescent Archers what it is today.
“Our club is built on inclusivity, accessibility, and the belief that archery can bring people together. Being recognised in this way encourages us to continue pushing forward and opening doors for even more people.”

At Crescent Archers, we are committed to ensuring that archery is accessible for all — whether you are a complete beginner, a returning member, or someone looking for a new way to connect with others.

Moving Forward Together
The BBC feature is just the beginning. As we continue to grow, our mission remains the same: to empower communities, inspire women, and make archery a sport for everyone.
