Southern Vales Archery Club

LONGLY LONGBOW TOURNAMENT

​

​

The first Longly Longbow Tournament was held at Southern Vales

Archery Club in November 1977 and was a huge success. This was, and

still is, the only Longbow Tournament in Australia.

 

​

Ever since, on the last Sunday in November, Longbowers gather at SVAC,

appropriately attired for the times of yore, and compete in a most joyous

contest.
