NSSA proudly welcomed this year’s youth archers to the club today for the first practice if the season. It was a great success! We would like to thank all the volunteers who have stepped up to help.
We are looking forward to a great season.
NSSA Youth Archery begins Oct 28th!
NSSA is pleased to announce that the NSSA Youth Archery program signup and orientation is scheduled for Sunday October 28th @ 1PM

NSSA’s youth archery program is for children from 9 to 20 years of age.
The program will run from October to the first week of April and will be held on Sundays from 1 to 4.
Due to a change in leadership, NSSA must re-establish its JOAD affiliation.
Despite this, students will still be eligible to compete in JOAD tournaments during the re certification process. They will be signed up as an independent archer but will still need to be a member of USA Archery Organization to participate.
Tournaments start in December and go until April. Most of them are on held on Saturdays, but there are a few times when their shoot times may take place on a Friday or a Sunday.
We suggest that if you are interested in the program and you DO NOT have equipment. PLEASE DO NOT go out and buy anything. We have both compounds and recurve equipment available for your child to try. We will be able to recommend equipment that will fit them properly.
*IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT THEY ARE FITTED WITH THE RIGHT EQUIPMENT!!!*
A parent is required to attend with their child.
We are excited about all the new changes and look forward to working with the kids.

Fall Trap League starts Sept 6th
Every Fall and Spring NSSA hosts a 12-week trap league that takes place on Thursday Nights. Shooters are divided into 5 teams which compete against each other for shells, prizes, and most importantly, bragging rights at the end of the 12-weeks.
Our Fall League starts Thursday, September 6th, with a 100 bird pre-season shoot. This shoot is a great opportunity for shooters to dust off their guns and get back out on the range. Following the 100 bird shoot, shooters will be divided into the 5 even teams based on their score and known ability, and these are the teams they will shoot 50 birds each week for throughout the rest of the season.
Sign-up times are 4pm-8pm each Thursday and it costs $10 per week to shoot the league. This cost not only covers the targets each week but also the prizes and the end of the league banquet dinner that we have at the club.
Everyone is welcome, including non members, so we hope to see you out there! Please be advised that during this 12-week league shooters are not required to participate in the league and can opt to shoot practice instead, however league squads will have preference over trap availability.
Thanks,
Ron Halli
