The Valley Bowmen of Huddersfield were founded in 1963 as a breakaway from the Huddersfield Archers. The founding members were seven in number including Ricky Farrar (whose idea it was) his wife Karla and Hazel Charlesworth. The first shooting venue was at the police rugby club at Armitage Bridge, Lockwood. It was there for a couple of years until it moved to a field next to the Sands House pub at Crosland Moor. A wooden pavilion was set up and the club stayed in Crosland Moor until the club members moved in 1971 to a field on Knowle Lane between Honley and Meltham – taking the wooden pavilion with them.
