There has been a club on the reservoir ground since 1923. It was called "The Aquarius Lawn Tennis and Social Club". Owing to the costly upkeep of the Tennis Courts and the decline in membership during and after the War an additional sport, Archery, was introduced in 1966. The Club was then renamed The Aquarius Lawn Tennis and Archery Club. However, with the continued decline of the Tennis Courts, the Tennis section became defunct. Another change of name followed and we are now called "The Aquarius Archery Club" (AAC). We are one of the biggest Archery clubs in London and the Southern Counties.

Shooting days extend throughout the year, Summer and Winter, weather permitting. From Easter until the last Wednesday in August the club runs beginners' courses for all ages. Courses are held on Wednesday evenings starting at around 6 o'clock and continuing until dark! The normal procedure is for juniors to go first followed by the adults. This is to try and fit in with most people who have either school or work commitments.

Beginners Please Note

Beginners courses have now started. Email us for information on booking places.

We have our own Club-house, with kitchen facilities, a Bar and a Pool Table and Darts when required. The Club-House can be hired by members for functions at a reasonable price (non-members may also hire the clubhouse during the indoor season - roughly October to March).

We welcome all newcomers to our most enjoyable sport.

If you would like further information on any aspect of our club please mail us, or call our club secretary Alan Lake on 020 8440 1558.
