Precautions around Covid-19
Combat Archery is a group activity designed for groups of 4 - 16 at any given time. Our arena provides room for two teams to play with respect to social distance on opposite sides of the courts.
Health and Safety continue to be our top priority. We have taken important precautions and measures to keep our customers, staff and community as safe as possible amidst the Covid-19 pandemic.
All sessions are private group sessions. This means that you will never join with another group that you do not know giving you peace of mind to play within your own private group. We have a four player minimum for group sizes and we’re capped at 16 players playing at any given time.
Expanded cleaning practices. We continue to thoroughly disinfect and clean our helmets/masks after each use. They will also now be rotated out to ensure an isolation period so that customers are using fresh masks every time. Arm guards and bows will continue to be disinfected between sessions.
Game-hosts will always be wearing masks. Our brilliant hosts/ staff will wear masks at all times for our customers as well as their own safety. Customers are not required to wear masks whilst playing but will be advised to wear masks when they are in communal areas such as the reception, waiting areas and restrooms.
Temperature checks on all players and staff. We will be using a non contact infrared Body Thermometer to check temperature on all entrants. Any temperature equal or above to 38.2 degrees will be refused entry. Booked groups will have option rebook at a later date after isolation period of 14 days.
We are closing our Open Play Sessions. Whilst this is sad news for those who enjoyed playing in open play sessions with new friends (or enemies!) We have had to make this change so that groups play within their bubble safely and securely. When it is safe to do so we will explore re-opening this format but for now invite your household to play with you! Mums and Dads, siblings and housemates will all have a blast!
We’re adding Sunday hours! Hurrah! Previously we have alway closed on a Sunday but instead will be moving this to Monday as our day of rest. This means increased availability for weekends so that more people can join the Combat Archery fun! Sundays will open at 9:30am and close at 4pm.
Groups will enter and exit venue in a staggered schedule. In cases of bookings following one after another we still operate a 30 minute buffer time between sessions to allow for thorough cleaning and resetting of our venue. Customer groups will be asked to wait in the hallway of the building before the active group exits thereby allowing only a single group using a single play area.
Waived cancellation fee. If one member of your group falls ill please email us at least a day in advance so that we can reschedule or cancel your event. There will no cancellation fee applied. Please self isolate, stay at home and rest!
Reservations required. By continuing to operate on a reservation basis this allows us to keep the safety of staff and customers through no random walk-ins ensuring undisturbed gameplay. The booker will also form the key contact for the NHS Test and Trace records.
Please note at this time all sessions are capped at 6 players. Therefore we are only taking 4/5/6 player groups to comply with government guidelines of no larger group sizes that 6 meeting indoors and outdoors.
