Intermediate Archery Lessons

STEP 2: Intermediate Archery builds on the critical foundations established in Beginning archery as we teach the last five steps of the National Training System. Archers in this course will begin to learn how to adjust and use a target site as well as be introduced to principals of using back tension to execute their shot. This program lasts for 5 weeks, and all equipment is provided.

Completion of Beginning Archery from a certified program is required. We do recognize a few other local programs, but a coach evaluation will be required to skip Beginning Archery.

COVID POLICY:

Participants are required to social distance while attending class. Designated shooting spots are marked on the range. Each participant is permitted to have one (1) spectator. Masks are required unless medical reason exists. Spectators are also expected to social distance. All equipment used that belongs to RPA will be left out so that it can be cleaned and sanitized after use. Maximum class sizes have been reduced to meet social distancing.

All necessary equipment is provided for the students at no extra charge. Optional accessories such as finger tab and finger sling are available for purchase but not required. 

Our range requires that all participants wear a closed toe shoe. Sandals and Flip flops which do not enclose the toe are not permitted for participants. Spectators are welcome to wear these types of shoes.
