The team follows National Archery in the Schools (NASP) curriculum and our coaches are Basic Archery Instructor (BAI) certified. Archers are instructed at practice 2-3 days each week and participate in local, regional, and state-wide tournaments. Both the coaches and students agree that this is a sport everyone can excel in because it allows for individual improvement with every arrow shot.
Archery Description
The TTAC Archery Team was developed to provide an engaging experience to 5th - 8th grade students to explore the sport of archery. We use the National Archery in School program to teach/coach students in the sport. We hope to continue and build NASP in the Lawrence County Schools.
Throughout the year, students will learn archery from Basic Archery Instructors. Archers will learn proper terminology and the fundamentals to safely and effectively shoot a Genesis Original Bow and Easton Arrows. Those wishing to be on team will compete throughout the school year.
What does an archer need?
Bows and arrows are supplied for students wishing to participate in archery. Archers can have their own bows but they must be Genesis Original Bows. If they don’t have one, we have many bows for archers to use. It is recommended even if your archer makes team and doesn’t have a bow, do no purchase one. Wait till end of season to make sure this is what your archery wishes to continue. Bows and cases run from $185-220 or more.
