We are an all-volunteer club that teaches recreational archery to kids and adults in San Francisco. We are based at the Golden Gate Park Archery Range. We support our archers by offering coaching, club archery equipment on loan, regular scored shoots where archers can earn achievement pins, advanced instruction in recurve archery form using the National Training System, league competitions, and special events like our annual Halloween shoot.

How do I join?

All prospective members must take a new archer lesson with us. These can fill up quickly and there is often a waitlist. Please note that the minimum age for our beginner lessons is 8 years old. For the next lesson date, please see the calendar.

If you cannot wait for the next available new archer lesson, we recommend the SF Rec and Park archery program or Pacifica Archery in Daly City.

Do you offer private lessons?

We do not offer private lessons at this time. We are an all-volunteer club and as such our teaching capacity is limited to regularly scheduled beginner lessons as well as orientations for archers with prior experience.

What do you with your lesson fees?

We replace our equipment as it gets old, buy uniforms (and the occasional pizza) for our coaches, and purchase materials to replace the Golden Gate Park Archery field bales. In recent years we've been grateful to see the city put time and labor into archery field maintenance, but we still help with volunteers and materials. Below you can see three of our coaches restuffing and re-covering one of the archery bales at the monthly work party organized by SF Park and Rec.
