The Rapids Archery JOAD Club offers youth (Ages 8 to 20) a chance to learn National Training System used by USA Archery, to improve fundamental skills, to learn advanced techniques, and perfect a consistent shooting style while getting to know other local youth archers.

All JOAD Club members must have their own equipment. The club is open to both recurve and compound shooters.

The cost is $30.00 per each multi-week session of instructions and practice, mixed in with a whole lot of fun, followed by JOAD Award Pin Tournament.   Then four weeks later we all start practice again to develop further and earn higher awards.

Session normally for 8 weeks and each class starts at ~9:30 on Saturdays.   Normally we meet in the clubhouse's Indoor Range from October to May and from June to September   (12 week session)   we meet at the Outdoor Practice Range. The actual session dates and times can be found on the club's website Calendar .

Congratulation goes out to Grace S for shooting the elusive "Robin Hood" sticking a second arrow into the end of the first. A rare feat of accurate shooting.
