Archery is an individual sport where children can learn and have fun at their own pace, without any pressure from "the team". There are many forms of archery, which can be enjoyed throughout life.  Students will enjoy one hour of shooting each week, while also learning the history of archery and proper archery terminology. Classes are taught with an emphasis on safety and proper technique. Students will be able to qualify for Junior Olympic Archery Development awards.
