I think that this should have been done along time ago. It is a very good program for the kids. Good job

Inspiring video. I will be showing to my son's principal on Tuesday to try and get the program started in his school.

In the late 70's when I started college I was on my schools rifle team. Back then it was not uncommon for colleges to have an indoor shooting range, even here in NYC. In the past 30 yrs, however, most of them are gone in this area for reasons ranging from philosophical to political to financial (insurance). It's great to see that archery may be filling the gap that was left behind.

this video doesn't say enough about this program. we are in the second year of the nasp at my daughters school. not only do the kids fall into this, the parents do too. i ended up as one of the coaches at her school.

not to mention that its helped keep her out of trouble, but it creates father/daughter time. and that is priceless in this day and age.

and parents that get involved with this, get just as much out of it as their kids do.

What a terrific program to instill focus, concentration on form, self evaluation, personal best, goal setting and more!
