Join us at the
Civil Service Archery Association

Membership

The Civil Service Archery Association (CSAA) was founded in January 1956 as the ‘Sports Representative Body’ (SRB) for Archery in the Civil Service Sports Council (CSSC), now known as CSSC Sports & Leisure.

The CSAA is a national Association and welcomes members from all parts of the UK, shooting any bowstyle recognised by Archery GB, and at any skill level or proficiency.

Membership of the CSAA is open to all current and retired members of the Civil Service and recognised Public Bodies as defined by the CSSC list of eligible employers and costs just £5 per year, paid annually by Direct Debit. Further information, clarification, and current membership fees can be provided by the CSAA membership secretary upon request

Membership of the CSSC is separate to membership of the CSAA. Only members of both CSAA and CSSC enjoy the full range of membership benefits. For further information on membership of the CSSC is available on their website . All CSAA and shooting CSSC members are expected to be current members of Archery GB – the governing body for Archery in the UK.

CSAA does not own its own facilities. CSAA events are, therefore, held at Archery GB accredited facilities throughout the country. Moreover, members are expected to provide their own equipment to shoot with as the CSAA does not provide any.
