    Cheers, just pm me if interested. I was going to do a beginners course because I want to make sure i have a decent technique. Would be interesting splitting the costs for both of us when were heading in the same direction

    Hi folks, I'm also based in Laois and would love to get into archery. Did you find a club that was suitable?

    Those are Archery Ireland clubs. The IFAF has imploded since this thread was started and the current IFAF site doesn't have a list of clubs, AFAIK. Look up SIFA, the new alternate version of IFAF.

    None very locally I'm afraid. Ended up doing the beginner's course in Galway.

    Depending on what part of Laois you're in you Mightn't be that far from IAC , outside Edenderry. I know a few lads living in Laois in IAC.

    You'll find IAC in the SIFA site.
