The Royal Leamington Spa Archery Society (RLSAS) is a prestigious archery club located in Kenilworth, Warwickshire. The club is proud to be accredited under the Clubmark scheme and is a member of the AGB Club Development Programme.
RLSAS has access to a state-of-the-art shooting ground which is shared with the Kenilworth Rugby Football Club. This allows members to enjoy convenient and frequent use of the facilities. In the summer, the main club night is held on Fridays, with additional club shooting available on Wednesday evenings and Sunday mornings. During the winter months, the club continues to shoot outdoors with some restrictions on Sunday shooting.
Additionally, the club has access to an indoor venue where members can shoot one evening a week.
Whether you are a returning archer, new to the area, or completely new to the sport, RLSAS welcomes archery enthusiasts of all skill levels. Those who are returning to archery after a break, established archers seeking a club to join, or beginners looking to enrol in a beginners course can find detailed instructions and contact information on the “Starting Archery” section of the club's website.
For more general information about RLSAS, interested individuals can read the various pages on the website or reach out to the Club Secretary via email at secretary@rlsas. Co. uk.
RLSAS also hosts a variety of tournaments and events throughout the year. One notable event is the CWAA Warwicks on May 12th, 2023. Archers can come and participate in shooting the first club round of the year, shooting Warwick rounds with four dozen arrows on a 122 cm face. Even if archers cannot shoot at the 60-yard distance, they are encouraged to participate at a comfortable distance.
The club also organises the RLSAS Club Champs for Seniors and Juniors, scheduled for August 22nd, 2021. Archers can submit their entry forms promptly to the Tournament Organiser.
RLSAS prides itself on its inclusive and supportive community. The club's clubhouse is once again open for members to use, with guidelines in place to ensure a safe experience. These guidelines have been emailed to all members and are available on the club's Policies page.

The club values its members and aims to foster a sense of camaraderie and passion for the sport. With a rich history and a dedication to excellence, RLSAS is an archery club worth joining in Kenilworth.
