We shoot at two venues, from April to September we shoot at Ashington Rugby Football Club and from October to March we shoot indoors at Newbiggin Leisure Centre. Please check the club calendar in the News/Calendar section to make sure you come to the correct venue. During the outdoor season we shoot on Saturday at 3pm and Thursday at 6pm. Indoors we shoot on Saturday at 3pm and Monday at 7pm. Any variation in shooting times will be published on the calendar and also on facebook.
At Ashington Rugby Club we shoot on the third pitch which isn't visible from the clubhouse so please consult the detailed site map if you are planning to come along for a practice and haven't shot here before. The clubhouse also has a bar and toilet facilities.
The gate to the rugby club is shown on the google map below with a handy red arrow. As you can see its just off the A1068. Go through the green gates into the grounds and park on the hard standing next to the first green container on the left hand side of the road, head straight across the field to the gap in the hedge in front of you which takes you through the trees up a slight incline onto pitch three.
Disabled archers are permitted to park on the edge of the practice field. Enter the Grounds through the main gate and follow the road all the way down and around in front of the clubhouse, up the small ramp onto the rugby field, take a right turn and follow the edge of the pitch as close to the hedge line as possible.
Parking for competitions will be as directed.

Newbiggin Leisure Center is our winter indoor venue and we'll shoot here from October until the end of March. Shooting distances are limited to 25 yards but it's a large hall with plenty of space. Typical leisure centre facilities are available, bar, toilets, refreshments etc with good disabled access. Archery takes place in the main sports hall, so turn left at reception and follow the corridor down the slope. If archery is in progress you MUST NOT enter the hall whilst archers are shooting. Please wait a few minutes until you see us collecting arrows from the targets, alternatively you can go up the steps to the left of the main hall to the viewing area.
