A full-length shade line for an archery range
A full-length shooting line shelter that keeps archers, gear and spectators out of the sun on competition days. The bright blue shade fabric reads clearly across the range and matches the club colours.

The project
Modular curved cantilever canopies on galvanised steel centre posts, each module overlapping the next, with tensioned blue shade fabric over curved galvanised tube arms and a concrete strip on the shooting line below.
Pioneer Shade designed and installed a modular shade line for Penrith City Archers. The structure runs the length of the shooting line, built from overlapping curved cantilever modules on single galvanised centre posts, so archers have a clear line of sight to the targets with no front posts in the way. Each module sits over a concrete shooting strip. The result keeps the range usable through summer heat, and gives spectators a covered space behind the line.
