“We had a Stag Do planned and wanted to do something a little different and found this. It was a great amount of fun. Instructions were very clear. Everyone had a blast doing it. The hour and a half flew by! Will be absolutely doing it again!”
Alexander RhymesGoogle review · Jul 2026“Very fun experience and surprisingly easy to get into. I thought it would be quite hard getting the form down but it was quite intuitive and the instructors do a great job of teaching you the basics and letting you get into the game and have fun. Definitely would recommend for anyone looking to try it!”

“Brilliant experience from start to finish. The instructors were friendly, knowledgeable, and made sure everyone felt included regardless of skill level. The session was well organised, engaging, and full of fun challenges. Our group thoroughly enjoyed it and we’ll definitely be recommending Trickshot Archery to others”

“Really good session, the kids loved it and a good price too. The instructors were very good at keeping the kids engaged.”
Mohammed AGoogle review · Jul 2025“Amazing experience, 10/10 would recommend. The instructor, Shamus, was very helpful in teaching us how to use the bows and be safe while using them. A very fun atmosphere, and had even better games. Felt like I was robin hood, running around and shooting the arrows. If you're considering going, definitely go for it, you won't regret it!!!”

Questions
Still unsure about price, venue or dates? Message us on WhatsApp or email info@trickshotarchery.co.uk. More in the full FAQs.
Does it hurt?
Our strong foam-tipped arrows hit about as hard as a dodgeball, or less. The bows are powerful enough for indoor play but not enough to particularly hurt. Everyone wears high-quality masks and arm guards, and they stay on at all times.
Who can play?
Adults and children alike. Child trials are for ages 8–15 and are free; adult trials are for ages 16+ and cost £30. For other session types, children's sessions are for ages 8+ and adult sessions for ages 14+. You need to be in good physical condition, and we can't let you play if you're pregnant. Every player must read and sign our online waiver before playing.
Do I need archery experience?
No. It's actually rare for us to have players with archery experience. Our staff train everyone before the games start, and the training is included in every session.
Do I need a team to play?
No. As well as group sessions, we run drop-in trial sessions you can come to on your own. See the trial page for the next child and adult dates; a WhatsApp enquiry does not reserve a place.
Where are you based?
We run indoor and outdoor sessions in and around Birmingham, mainly near Selly Oak, with venues in North and South Birmingham. We also travel to venues across Birmingham and the West Midlands, including Solihull, Sutton Coldfield, Dudley, Walsall, Wolverhampton and Coventry.
Do I need to book?
Yes. We're open by reservation only. Private games are confirmed with a small deposit, and we recommend booking early, especially for weekends and school holidays.
What should I bring?
Comfortable workout clothes and your favourite trainers: you will get warm. Jeans and a fleece are not a good idea. If you wear glasses, that's fine, we have a range of masks to fit, or you can wear contact lenses.
What if we need to cancel?
Like sporting events and escape rooms, we don't normally refund last-minute cancellations, but we can usually reschedule your slot.
