Welcome to Old Basing Archers
Old Basing Archers is a friendly club with its range at the recreation ground in Old Basing, Hampshire. It is owned and managed by Old Basing Archers Ltd, a company limited by guarantee (Company number 14828526).

During the winter months, weekly indoor shooting sessions are held at the village hall and Hampshire Court Hotel - the venue for our Battle of Basing indoor tournament in February - and as well as outdoor weekend and weekday shoots at the recreation ground. The club regularly competes in the British Archer winter postal competitions.

New to archery?
We run courses throughout the spring and summer for those who are new to the sport. Details can be found here.
Having completed one of our beginners’ courses, archers are eligible to join Archery GB, which includes the insurance needed to shoot with any affiliated archery club.
We hope you will also join Old Basing Archers, where you will receive a warm welcome and ongoing support. New archers may use the basic club equipment or hire modern equipment from the club. This allows the novice archery to develop their technique to a level where investment in their own equipment is justified.
