Archery

For people who don't like the noise of guns, University Sports offers instruction in how to use the age-old weapon of bow and arrow. This is a complex sport that not only calls for precision, but is also demanding at a physical level. Whether performed as a relaxing pastime or as a top-class sport, in the context of mindfulness or simply as an outdoor activity in nature, it always offers a delightful escape from the worries of everyday life, without making any special requirements in terms of strength and fitness ... It's worth just having a go!

The starting point of this sport is an understanding of the fundamental principles of technique, form and style. The basic training aims to teach this in a few lessons. Advanced learners can polish up their shooting technique, hone the finer details and, depending on their progress, even switch to a heavier bow for shooting longer distances (30/50/70m).
