Coaching Day – Juniors – 20 November 2022

Posted on by Elaine

We are pleased to let you know that we have finally been able to organise a coaching day for juniors. This will be held on 20th November at Durham City Archers’ venue, Framwellgate School, Framwellgate Moor, Durham DH1 5BQ.

The school has a couple of entry points, the entrance you need is via Old Pit Lane. If you use it, the What3Words are ///shiny.ruling.ashes.

Session time will be 10:00 to 3:00. Juniors will need their shooting equipment and refreshments. If they have one, a ‘clini band’ would be useful. We may have some with us for sale if they don’t.

Places aren’t necessarily limited but so we know who is coming please send a message to DNAACoaching@gmail.com to book a slot.
There is no cost for the session.
