What Three Words for our venues
NAC caters, wherever possible, for all abilities and disabilities. There are no strict requirements for fitness or health to shoot in our club. The Northampton Archery Club does however highlight that it is the duty of anyone attending our courses or joining our club to declare any health concerns they may have, since these conditions may affect their own safety and/or the safety and well-being of others while at the club.
