Look forward to our new and improved Archery Programs!
Youth Archery Classes
Youth Classes for ages 6 to 17 each Wednesdays beginning June 18 at 6PM/7PM depending on class sizes. We are limited by equipment to 30 students per class. Parents do not need to be a member of this club to have their children come to this summer archery clinic.
For new archers who have limited experience or anybody looking to get started, a Try Archery Clinic provides instruction and guidance needed to hone skills and improve form, focus, concentration, and shot execution. Our club is working on our archery range and for the remainder of 2025 we will be focusing on offering free TRY ARCHERY classes to get students who have never tried archery interested in the sport and possibly registering for EXPLORE ARCHERY weekly classes this fall or even joining our Youth Team “NOCKED & LOADED” for competitions.
We will focus on teaching the basics needed to accurately shoot either an Olympic recurve /barebow or youth compound bow this summer. Class sizes are limited. Equipment is provided FREE during your time with an instructor. Dress code for class is nothing loose or floppy to get caught, clothes that cover midriff, and closed toe sturdy shoes are also required. Whether you are interested in fun and recreation or looking to further your skills in competitive archery we can give students the basics to TRY ARCHERY provided by both of our certified USA ARCHERY LEVEL 2 instructors.
Parents must stay with students in the spectator area during class. No drop offs. Please bring your own fold up chair or blanket. Rest Rooms are available.
Please sign up or direct any Youth Class questions to Head Coach John at Yrarchery@yahoo.com
Limited space available so make sure you email an instructor ASAP!
