## Sagittarii **G.N.A.S (AGB) World Archery G.W.A.S D.W.A.A** ## **28/07/2024 - Chairmans Report** AGM Chairman’s Report Our Journey continued….. Many of you may not know the history of Sagittarii. We started initially in 2009 but unable to secure a ground until 2012 Olympic year where we found a ground at Knighton Lane in Poole. We lost this ground after returning from the first lockdown of 2020 in July, but we were able relocate to a new shooting ground at Rossmore Leisure Centre in August 2020. During this period there was a loss of shooting time from 7-day access to 4-day access (Wed eve, Thu eve, Sat, Sun) during the summer and 2-day access (Sat, Sun) during the winter. We were told that there were plans to install a 3G pitch at the far end of the field, but the resulting plans were far larger than those that were explained. We spent a considerable amount of time in the hunt for a more secure venue and were close to securing a council owned ground which we would be able to rent. During this period, we were encouraged by Poole council to set the club up as a registered charity which we did, however, this ground fell through, and we continued to search and were fortunate to find a ground very quickly at Walnut Farm Pamphill. We moved to our new ground in early July 2023 and were able to start shooting on 16[th] after setting out the field which still needs work but we have made a start and it is marked out to the required distances, but we will still need help. I would like to thank everybody for attending this afternoon and would like to thank everybody who has helped with the work so far and assisting in the marking out of the field. I would also like to take this opportunity to welcome all the new members to the club. Our New journey continues…..
