Sign up to the next Level 1 Courses in East & West Areas starting in January 2026

Archery GB’s Level 1 Session Coach course prepares learners to deliver engaging sessions for beginners. You’ll learn how to design and deliver a beginner’s course, the most popular way for archery clubs to welcome new members, and gain a recognised qualification which makes you stand out from people doing informal coaching and instructing.

This qualification is structured into the module. Each module is completed separately, providing greater flexibility to complete the learning around work and home-life. We recommend completing the modules in the order described, although we recognise this may not always be possible.

It is important that anyone attending a module/course has basic experience of taking part in archery (i.e. beyond a beginner level). The course is open to members and non-members of Archery GB, aged at least 15 years old by the first day of the course. When carrying out supported practice sessions, learners who are under the age of 18 must be supervised by a responsible adult.
