A club badge is awarded for shooting the Portsmouth round only. This consists of shooting 5 dozen arrows at 20yds on a 60cm face (or 3-spot face if preferred)
The round must be completed in one session.
Compound archers will score the inner-ten ring as 10 only.
Only Green Dragon Bowmen members are entitled to claim club badges.
Badges will not be awarded for scores below, or level to, that for which a badge has already been awarded.
If an archer shoots more than one bow type, they will be entitled to claim badges for each bow they shoot providing the required scores have been reached.
If an archer shoots a new qualifying score and wishes to claim a badge that score must first be handed to the GDB records officer.
All score sheets handed in for badge claim purposes must be signed by the archer and countersigned by someone who witnessed the round.
An archer may not claim a badge for a score for which the GDB records officer has no record of.
If a member loses a badge, they can purchase a replacement from the club, providing the records officer verifies the award. The fee for a replacement badge can be found on the prices page.
From 1st October 2026, the qualifying scores below apply, including a new entry-level Green badge. Scores shot before this date are judged against the scores previously in effect, and badges already awarded remain valid.
