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!
Yingzhi has modified the setup for the range webcam. It will now be accessed by a webpage, with security managed through the logon.
The webcam address is https://live.archery.irrational.im/
When the link is opened, a login screen pops up, asking for your AA number and the password (pass phrase). At present, the AA number is not validated, but Yingzhi expects to get this working soon.
Chris (club secretary) will send out a group email with the password, and then hopefully we will have a bit more stability and fewer emails to keep everyone linked up.
The Tuesday Twilight sessions will cojntinue to be random team events. An explanation of how this works, and results can be found on our Twilight Teams page (the results now reflect the 3 events held to date). If anyone would like to see the live app, go to iatt.netlify.app

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.
see the Membership page for information on joining the club
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 participating in 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.
We hold club competitions every Saturday and also host several tournaments throughout the year. Interested in archery?? Try one of our Beginner Classes and get involved.
