&lt;p&gt;Helen - the club we&amp;#39;re joining won&amp;#39;t let Hannah join til she is 12, even though she is 5&amp;#39;2 and quite solidily built.&amp;nbsp; They said it was because of size rather than insurance.&amp;nbsp; We&amp;#39;ve been doing archery on holiday for a couple of years and we both love it.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The reason could be to do with the bows that you will be borrowing from the club and their type size and draw length and arrow length,&amp;nbsp;as well as your daughter&amp;#39;s age and insurance.&amp;nbsp; The ideas of H&amp;amp;S&amp;nbsp; etc have changed in over 35 years!
