Take part in the NI Schools' Cup 2026!

The NI Schools' Cup will return on Saturday 21 March and students are invited to compete and represent their school with pride.

This year it is being hosted by Bangor and District Archery Club and is sponsored by Clickers Archery and Hill Fitness. It will take place at St Columbanus’ College, Ballymaconnell Road, Bangor.

Students have the option to enter either as part of their school archery club, or they can form a team with other Archery GB members from their school. Archers are invited from Years 6 to 14. Please note, you must be 18 or under to take part. 

Barebow, compound and recurve are the only recognised bowstyles for this event. Any archer shooting compound barebow will be placed in the compound category.

The entry fee is £10 per archer. Medals will be awarded to winning students with trophies presented to winning schools' teams.

Lisa Wheeler, Archery GB's Sport Development Officer for Northern Ireland, said: "We want schools, Archery Activity Partners, and clubs to come along and ask 'How does a school competition work? How can we replicate it and increase junior participation within the sport of archery?'."
