Welcome to sport at DMU!
Please only buy the Sports Membership if you're ready to do the beginner's course, or become a full member! The Sports Membership is NOT automatic membership to the Archery Club!
If this is your first year - CLICK HERE and join the Official DMU Archery Club page!
We’re in our sixth year of official sports status here at DMU Archery, and we’re aiming high!
Our outstanding performance last year in Division 2 of our regional university league, BUTTS (Birmingham University Toxophily & Toucan Society), has promoted us to Division 1! Expect hard competition against some of the best university archery clubs in the UK and lots of new friends to be made. Opportunities to represtent the university are frequent with the club being involved in local competitons as well. Some of the events you could be attending are; BUCS (British Univeristy and College sport) Indoor and Outdoor, field archery, the Countesthorpe Triple, Clout, British Indoor National Championships, Varsity.....
However, if you’re new to archery, you’ll want to take part in our beginner’s course, hosted by our partner club LAOFAC. All the kit is provided and every archer only needs to take a course like this once in their life, so why not take the opportunity with us?
Your membership covers affiliation costs with the regional and county clubs and your ArcheryGB membership, a form of insurance that allows you to take part in competitions and shoot at any ArcheryGB club nationally. For an additional charge, you could have access to shoot outside at LAOFAC 24/7.
