Visually impaired archery

 Castle Moat and Folkestone Bowmen welcomes archers of all abilities. The club is extremely proud to have had elite GB VI Archer, Melissa Carter as one of its members. The club ran a successful indoor archery experience for visually impaired children and teens in February 2012. If you would like to know how to get involved in the sport, please contact our coaches.


Archery for the visually impaired began in Europe in the 1970s, but only took off in clubs up and down the country from the 1980s. Up until then it was only at St. Dunstans archery club, outside Brighton, that VI archery was practised. In 1985, a group of VI archers met with ArcheryGB to formulate the rules for the sport and enable visually impaired and able-bodied archers to compete alongside each other. 

VI archers use sights; either a bowsight or tactile sighting aid, depending on the level of their impairment. Blind Veterans UK Bowmen, has a very good explanation on how VI archery works.
