Mark Briegal, Archery GB's Chair, said: "2024 was certainly a busy year in archery. At the high-performance end of AGB, the Olympics and Paralympics saw our world class athletes perform at the highest level and demonstrate the success of our world class programme. Everyone performed so well and I was personally delighted to be able to be at the Paralympics to watch our Paralympians, Jodie and Nathan, win medals.
"All of our athletes started on a beginner's course at their local club or possibly picked up a bow on holiday. The work carried out by our volunteer coaches at clubs up and down the country is remarkable and feeds into the success of the high-performance programme.
"Closer to home, we have been working on a number of projects to improve the service we give our members. Change is not easy and, to paraphrase the old saying, “You can’t please all of the people all of the time”. This is particularly true with 40,000 members, over 800 clubs, plus counties, regions and home nations. We are fully aware that some of the membership changes have not been well received by all our members - some members loved the changes and others absolutely hated them. We have listened to the feedback and have embarked upon further consultation to make these new systems so that they work for members.
"Running alongside the membership project has been a project to look at the interaction between clubs, counties, regions and home nations. We want to work with all these groups to ensure that everybody is clear what happens at what level and to make sure that we support our members in the tasks that they are fulfilling.
"As ever I want to thank the Board for their support and guidance and the whole AGB team at Lilleshall and around the country. Particular thanks must also go to that army of unsung volunteers across the UK who make archery happen. Here’s to an even more successful 2025."
Archery GB's 2025 AGM will be held online. It will be restricted to the formal elements required by our Articles of Association. The meeting will be held to pass the resolutions to:
All eligible members will be given the opportunity to vote online, or via post and their votes will be carried forward to the meeting.
In line with article 23, Civica are appointed to manage the voting process and provide the results to AGB. As such they are by terminology the 'Tellers' as referred to in our articles and laws.
At our AGM we invite our members to send in their questions for us to answer. We are a membership organisation so it is vital that archers have a voice and can hold us to account. You can also ask questions by typing them into the chat box during the AGM. Questions submitted in advance and during the meeting will be answered as soon as possible in the form of a written article which will be published on our website. Please note, we will take the time to consult with different members of staff to ensure as detailed an answer as possible so answers will not be published immediately.
