Explore Archery is a versatile education activity program that is fun, rewarding, progressive, and
most important – safe. In Explore Archery 1, students are exposed to the National Training
System (NTS) and the sport of archery over the 4-week program.

Explore Archery 2 is the continuation in archery education from Explore Archery 1. In Explore
Archery 2, the instructors will go one step further in teaching the National Training System (NTS),
reinforcing rules, equipment knowledge and etiquette on the range.
Participants will focus on improving their shooting form through instruction and through playing games. Equipment is provided, but students are permitted to bring their own. Successfully passing Explore Archery 1, participation in our day camps, or belonging to a NASP team are prerequisites.
NOTE: At the completion of Explore Archery 2, archers are encouraged to continue to one of
our three new Pursue programs (Intermediate and Advanced Archery are no longer available).
Archers may now choose any of the following:
- Pursue Competition Archery
- Pursue Recreational Archery
- Pursue Bowhunting and Bowfishing
Completion of Explore Archery 2 is the only prerequisite for any of those programs.
