Our Club Twinning

Inaugural Visit - Kestrels first visit to the 1erč Compagnie d’Arc du Touquet took place over the weekend of 19/20 Sept 2009. A party of 14 made the journey and all enjoyed the friendly and warm welcome extended by our French counterparts.

Saturday was spent at their excellent facility with an outdoor fun shoot followed by a buffet reception which was attended by the Mayor of Le Touquet Paris-Plage and representatives from the Office of Tourism. On Sunday our hosts took us to the Agincourt Museum, entertained us at a superb medieval banquet and treated us to shooting on the actual battlefield. Their juniors presented our junior representative with a signed log as a memento of the occasion.

Oct 2009 - Competition Day Trip
On 17 Oct 2009, six Kestrels, made a day trip to our twin club's first indoor competition of the season. Everyone was made thoroughly welcome and, although different to archery in the U.K. it was very enjoyable, especially for the three Kestrels who came home with awards! The venue, the Le Touquet Indoor Tennis Centre, is something to be envied.
