News Notes

many thanks to our carpet suppliers - Simmons Flooring Xtra Wollongong, B&D Carpets Galore Fairy Meadow, and Warilla Carpet Court. A great bunch of people that have been helping us out for several years now!
We completed our annual Farget shoot on Sunday. 13 shooters made the round, with one near disqualification for being too serious. And of course, everyone went home with a lucky dip from our no-expense-spared prize pool! Special thanks to Fiona for all her hard work to organise and run the fun.
This Saturday Dec 20 is our Christmas Wrap Up. Come along and 'enjoy the fun' of our infamous Wand round. This will be followed by the year end presentations, and a catered lunch.

Illawarra Archers is a non-profit sporting club who practice the sport of target archery at our range in the foothills of Mt. Keira. We are one of the largest archery clubs in NSW with over 200 members. We practice target, field, and indoor archery, and our members use various bow types.

We are affiliated with the Archery Society of NSW and in turn with Archery Australia and World Archery. This allows our members to enjoy the challenge and comradery of shooting tournaments throughout the country.
Our members range from Australian Representative level to the social weekend archer, families and individuals – archery is a sport for all!
Our club has some of the best facilities available to archers in Australia with the club facilities being available to members 7 days a week, and the depth of experience within the club is of great benefit to newer archers and those wishing to advance their skills.
