Generally...

All current Napier University students are welcome to join NUAC. Most of our new members are complete beginners and we provide equipment and also tuition. Archers with previous experience are also very welcome. You can join the Club at any time of the year and you don't need to attend every session. However for best results, we recommend that you start early on in the academic year and attend as many practice sessions as you can.

Session Membership. Attending your first three practice sessions of the academic year costs £1 a time. From the fourth session onwards it costs £2 a time. If you pay annual membership then these fees no longer apply.

Annual Membership. Joining the club costs £10 for the year, but you must also join Napier Students Association. This costs an additional £10, which you can pay either through the club or at NSA HQ directly. Annual membership for the year covers the use of club's equipment and affiliation to the national governing bodies, which helps with the insurance. Cash is acceptable, naturally, or cheques made payable to "NSA Club Accounts - Archery".
