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. 

 

In 2017 we celebrated the 20th Anniversary of the Longly and a prize

worthy of a king was up for grabs!

​

There are only 4 Divisions:     Senior Male

                                                  Senior Female

                                                  Junior Male (18 and Under)

                                                  Junior Female (18 and Under)
