Archery 101 – JOAD I – Youth Class (5 session $150 program fee):

The JOAD archery program is a nationally recognized archery program developed by USA Archery.  It combines teaching techniques and easy to use archery equipment.  The curriculum introduces archery safety, shooting form, archery styles, equipment and scoring rules. The course is held over 5 sessions that are 60 minutes long.  Students learn a neutral style of archery that builds the basics of a solid shooting form.  The archery lessons are conducted using lightweight recurve bows or compound bows at short distances; as a result gender or age has little advantage.  The bows draw weight is 15 or 20 pounds.  All of the equipment and range facilities are provided by Texas Archery Academy.    Fee is $150.00

Archery 201 – JOAD II – Youth Class (ongoing coach supervised practice program $25/session, plus the cost of equipment you purchase):

This program is a semester long structured training and workout program.  Archers in this program participate in the Junior Olympic Archery Development’s National Training System program, a training program developed by USA Archery.  This program specializes in target archery employing the Olympic shooting form, applied to recurve or compound. Archers within this program are committing to purchasing their own equipment during the training classes. This discipline leads to competition in worldwide tournaments, including college teams, and possibly the Olympics and Archery World Cup.

To attend this class students must have completed the Archery 101 class, learned archery basics at 4-H, NASP or Scouts or have been approved by interview with the Coach.

More Details Now Available: The date for this will be set in the next month or so (May or June) and be held probably in June or July.

COMMUNITY COACHING CERTIFICATION COURSE (CCC)

The instructor course teaches the fundamentals designed to insure a basic knowledge and level of safety and how to teach these to others..

The prerequisites are that you have to be a Intermediate Instructor for one year (NASP BAIT’s also qualify) or a Basic Instructor for two years and be able to pass the “test-in” test (NAST BAI’s also qualify).

The CCC goes to a higher plain of awareness, beginning the process of converting the instructor into an actual "coach".

To me, the title of "coach"is an honorific as well as several other things - to be worthy of such takes a dedication to learning more than just how to teach to hold a bow. When done properly, a "coach" is no less significant than "doctor", "minister", etc...

It also goes to how you nurture and provide the athlete with a philosophy, your philosophy as well as expertise, integrated deeply with their goals which they do not even know they have. Being a "COACH" is a tremendous honor and responsibility. If you take this CCC with me I will give you the right start to becoming a coach.

COURSE LIMITED TO 12 STUDENTS. You must be an Intermediate Coach

Our ultimate goal/game plan is to help market the sport of archery, by acting as an agent to aid coaches and athletes.

For athletes:
Lorinda Cohen & Tara Robey feel a need to positively promote the sport. They want to market the sport more the the entertainment world. In return, the entertainment industry will hopefully use our resources for help. We plan to act somewhat like a sport's agent to our U.S. Athletes. We want to provide athletes with an avenue for income, publicity, and enhance future opportunities.

For coaches:
In the same manner, we will help market all coaches by promoting them to the archery community.  Our goals on the local level is to create programs and development for youth? We advocate the BEST Method by getting involved with the Olympic Archery in Schools and surrounding B.E.S.T. youth programs.
