What is the Archery Club?

The USC Archery Club is a group of students, faculty, and alumni dedicated to practicing, enjoying and competing in archery. All students, both undergrad and graduate, are welcome to join, as are faculty and staff.




Do I need my own equipment to join?

Don't own equipment? Not a problem! The club provides all the equipment you will need to practice at our meetings, as well as coaching and instruction on its use.




Can I bring my own equipment?

You sure can! All members are welcome and encouraged to bring their own gear (Bows, arrows, finger tabs, etc.) At your first practice, a club officer or the coach will check out your equipment.




Where does the club practice and how do I get there?

The USC Archery club practices at an archery range in Rancho Park. To get there from USC:

- Take Vermont to the 10 freeway.
- Get on the 10 freeway heading West until the Overland exit.
- Turn right onto Overland and then another right onto Pico. You'll now be heading east.
- Keep going until you reach Motor, and turn right.
- You will see the entrance to the park on your right, as well as a sign for the archery range. Turn right into this entrance and drive all the way to the end of the road - you'll come to a large open field next to some baseball fields, and the archery range is just beyond this field on your left.




What if I don't have a car?

No car? No problem! Before each practice, make sure you RSVP and let us know you’re coming. Right before practice, all club members meet in front of the Subway in the University Village. From here we carpool over to the range, so you'll be able to get a ride with one of us, as well as a ride back! This also depends on driver availability.




When are the club practices?

The beginner practices are on Sundays from 5 P.M. to 7 P.M. We meet in front of Subway around 4:10 and leave by 4:20.

The advanced practices are held on Tuesdays and Fridays from 7 P.M. to 9 P.M. and we meet up at Subway around 6:10, leaving by 6:20. Please note that advanced practice is restricted to experienced archers. Please talk with one of the club officers or the coach if you want to go to these practices.




How much are club dues?

Club membership is $25 a semester, but these dues are waived if you are a driver.
