WHATS ON AT THE CLUB - SEPTEMBER 2026😁

01/09/2026

Hi everyone,

Entries are open for our DVA 720 Tournament on Sunday 27 September. It is a one day, single 720 round on our outdoor range at Yarrambat, sanctioned through Archery Victoria, so your score counts towards your rating and classification.

We have 96 spots per flight. Distances may be capped to specific age brackets as entries fill, and while we will look at opening extra places if demand is strong, please do not count on it. If you want to shoot, get your entry in early.

Register here: https://www.dva.asn.au/events/dva-720-tournament/

Registration is through Assemble Sports via the event page. For any changes to your entry, email [email protected].

The day at a glance

Date: Sunday 27 September 2026
Where: Diamond Valley Archers, 649 Yan Yean Road, Yarrambat
Registration and equipment inspection: 8:00am to 8:45am
Practice: from 9:00am
Scoring: 9:30am sharp
Format: Single 720 round
Entry fee: Adult $49, Youth $34
Entries close: 11:59pm Friday 25 September

The provisional schedule has Flight 1 at 9:30am and Flight 2 at 1:00pm after lunch. We will confirm flight allocations and arrival times once entries close.

Novice round

If you are not yet able to shoot the full distance for your division, you can still be part of the day. We will run a novice round alongside the main event. You shoot at the furthest distance you can manage (where space on the range permits), and we then use your rating score to rank you against the other novice archers, even if they shot a different distance.

It is a good way to get a real tournament under your belt without being pushed to a distance you are not ready for. When you register, let us know you would like the novice round, or email [email protected], so we can plan the target layout.

Coffee van and food truck

The coffee van and food truck at the State and National Indoor Championships in August were a hit. That was the first time we had them on site and the first time at an archery event in Australia! , and it worked so well that they will be part of our events from now on. Both will be back for the 720, so you can leave the esky at home if you like. Which food truck it will be this time round is still to be revealed, so keep an eye out closer to the day, give suggestions and maybe we can arrange it ;)

Before you enter

Your current Archery Australia digital card (or affiliate card) must be shown at registration. No card, no shoot. Archery Australia dress regulations apply, including closed toe shoes, so wear your club shirt and come prepared for a spring day outdoors.

Late entries may be accepted with a $10 late fee. Requests need to reach [email protected] by 1:00pm on the Saturday before the event. If you withdraw before entries close you get a full refund. After that, up to 50%.

The event is open to archers from any club, so please share this with friends at other clubs who would like a day out at Yarrambat.

Get your entry in and we will see you on the line on the 27th.

🏹 That's the 2026 State & National Indoor Championships done — and we couldn't let it finish without one last thank you.

☕🥙 FIRST, THE BIT WE'RE QUIETLY PROUD OF: as far as we know, this is an Indoor Nationals first — a coffee van AND a food truck on site for the whole weekend. Nobody had to leave the grounds for a decent feed or a proper coffee, and going by the queues, that went down well. Huge thanks to Roast66 Coffee and The Souvlaki Truck for looking after everyone — we'll absolutely be doing this again wherever we can.

To the ARCHERS who travelled from clubs all over to shoot with us: you're the reason the weekend was worth running. Some cracking scores, and a great atmosphere on the line from the first end to the last.

To the JUDGES and officials: thank you for keeping it fair, calm and running on time. It's a long day on your feet and it never goes unnoticed.

To the ORGANISERS who spent months on the entries, the draw, the equipment and the hundred details nobody sees until they go wrong: it ran smoothly because you planned it that way.

And to our VOLUNTEERS — setup, scoring, canteen, pack-down and everything in between. You gave up your own shooting time so everyone else could shoot. That's the club at its best. 💚💙

Thanks again, everyone. Same time next year. 🎯
