Welcome To Archers of East Riding
The Archers of East Riding Archery Club was established in October 2009 by a small group of enthusiastic archers.
Based at Hutton Cranswick SRA sports ground, near Driffield, it boasts an 11 acre shooting field with a club house for when the weather becomes too much.
Covid-19
All Covid related restrictions on outdoor sport were removed on 19 July 2021. You may now shoot normally. Masks need not be worn and hand sanitiser is not obligatory though some archers are choosing to use both. Please respect the decisions of fellow archers. In particular do not pull or pick up a fellow archer’s arrows without asking them first.
