Dodgebow is a combat archery sport, we use Industry leading foam tipped Arrows and low poundage bows to play a wide Variety of games.

Yes! The special lightweight foam tipped arrows have been used in related sports like LARP for years.

The bows are light weight, easy to handle and have a draw weight of 20lb.

Regardless we ensure all players are wearing face masks for extra protection and only Dodgebow Approved equipment is permitted.

Only Dodgebow approved Bows are allowed on field, we supply all Bows and Arrows for play. We have very strict Conditions that must be met for the bow requirements, so we only allow a single type of bow to be used on Field that we supply.

However if you purchase a Bow from us, you May use that bow on Field, But it must be checked by a marshal each time before it is Allowed to be used on Field.

No. The Foam Arrows do not have Paint on them.

No, you don’t need to be good at archery to play. In fact Dodgebow is the perfect opportunity to use a bow and arrow for the first time as we provide you with training and practice before playing.

We Recommend ages 10+ for our Friday Night sessions, as there will be a wide variety of ages at those sessions. Anyone under the age of 18 must have a Parent or Guardian Present to sign a waiver to allow the under age person play.

If you are interested in a younger age group playing, we can be booked for a Private session for younger age groups (ideal for Birthday parties/scout groups/youth groups) see the "Hire us" section for more information.

Inbetween most games there is a quick intermission while we explain the next game, during this time we recommend you have a waterbottle on hand to stay hydrated while listening to the next rules!

We have the ability to support up to 100 players on Field at once, we do recommend you book tickets online to secure a spot at our events, it is also cheaper to book online than at the gate!

Enclosed Shoes are required to be allowed to play.

Sports/Exercise style clothing is also ideal for the fast action play style.

We also recommend groin protection.

We play is light to medium rain, we suggest bringing appropriate clothing! We use mesh masks which dont fog up during the rain.

If we have to Cancel an event due to heavier weather we will let everyone know via email that has purchased tickets online and issue a full refund as well as posting to our Facebook to alert everyone of the cancellation.

We have two sessions. Depending on the session you attend, we recommend being there 15 minutes prior to sign-in and be ready to go. Training starts at 6:45 for a game start time of 7 o'clock for the first session, and training is at 7:45 for the second session with an 8 o'clock start.

If you are running late and miss the sign-in time for the training session, once the staff has run through the training session, they will sign you in and run you through the training. You will then enter into the game in progress. Unfortunately, you will be forfeiting the time you were late for.
