Under the guidance of fully qualified and experienced coaches, the participants were given an introduction to safety on the range, description of equipment and its components, technique on ‘drawing’ and ‘shooting ‘ the bow, shooting form and mental aspects of shooting.The skills developed among the parents and the young people over the five weeks was something 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 none of whom had ever shot a bow before.
A special thank you to Na Laoch Dall Archery Club for facilitating this excellent programme.
