Connecticut has two state-level archery associations. The Connecticut Archery Association (CAA) and the Connecticut Target Archers Association (CTAA) both operate in the state, covering NFAA and USA Archery activity respectively. Algonquin Archers hosted Connecticut's first NFAA state modified field tournament in 2023, and the state has run CT State Indoor Championships in recent years. Hartford, New Haven, Stamford, and Bridgeport hold the densest club scenes, with strong indoor traditions through the long New England winter. Bowhunting is significant for a state Connecticut's size, especially in the western hills and the Quiet Corner. Use the city list below to find the right club for your discipline and location.
