Waterford Sports Partnership and Na Laoch Dall Archery Club recently hosted a five week Parent/Child Archery Programme. Under the guidance of fully qualified and experienced coaches, the participants were given an introduction into safety on the range, description of equipment and it's components, techniques on drawing and shooting the bow, shooting form and mental aspects of shooting.
The skills developed amongst the parent and young people over the five weeks has to be commended.
This is a testament to the standard of coaching Na Laoch Dall Archery Club has to offer.
More importantly, the coaches made all the participants feel very welcome into ‘their club’.
Waterford Sports Partnership would like to congratulate all those who took part, in particular the parents, as none of them would have ever shot a bow before. Although, one would find this hard to believe if they witnessed the level of concentration in the parent’s competition in the final week!
A special thank you must also go to Na Laoch Dall Archery Club for facilitating an excellent programme. For further details on Archery in Waterford, please contact Thomas on 086-8224912.
