This session is fully booked. If you are interested in registering your child(ren) for beginner archery, please refer to Session #3. Thank you.
Beginner Youth classes run for 6 weeks, one hour per week, covering The Ten Basic Steps to Good Shooting for archers ages 6 to 10. South Nation Archery supplies all the equipment. Students should bring indoor shoes and wear snug-fitting clothing on the upper body.
It is highly recommended that students take this course 2-3 times before considering the youth advanced courses. Parents and students should discuss this progression with Kathleen Millar in order to ensure that it is appropriate.
