At the end of the 2008 season the Arrows 2nd team took the unprecedented step of requesting to use their own identity. At the Club’s A.G.M. the steps were put in place and for the 2009 season the 1st team will continue to be called the Essex Arrows with the 2nd team now being called the Essex Archers.
