Archery and shooting are popular target sports with beautiful remote grounds on Barbados. Visitors will find that the facilities available here are open, friendly and stocked with internationally recognized names in the sport!

The archery range of Waterford welcomes new and visiting sports enthusiasts. The most popular time to come is Sunday morning when you might catch a glimpse of Judy McGrass, a Pan American Games athlete. Archery sessions are well-priced and groups easily accommodated.

Those who prefer shooting can visit Kendal Sporting, a state-of-the-art range complete with computerized compact sporting stands and a 50-target sporting loop with a tower. The facility covers 72 acres and has recently added a 7-bay hand-gun range and swimming pool. Stay for lunch in the clubhouse restaurant with the whole family. The club offers tuition from the best marksmen on the island and the range operates with the maximum security and safety precautions. Kendal Sporting has been primarily focused on the sporting clays but plans for further development of the extensive grounds are underway.

Both the archery and the shooting ranges are well off the beaten track, so be sure to get thorough directions before you set out. For details on target shooting events, contact the local rifle association. Over one hundred years old, the organization hosts various competitions throughout the year. The club is located at the Paragon Ranges in the south of the island.
