"S3DA has such a well-organized program for elementary, middle school, and high school level students to enjoy," said Alli Armstrong, two-time Collegiate Archery National Champion. "This allows them to be exposed to such a rewarding sport even if they don't have that opportunity at home. Archery brings many skills to the table for kids to obtain. I am so excited to see this program growing and becoming a part of our local schools. I attended the tournament and got to see first-hand how much passion these students have for archery. Parents and students alike are grateful for the opportunity
have this incredible program in their schools."



Started in December 2012 by the Scholastic Archery Association, S3DA has grown exponentially as a next step program to follow introductory programs offered as part of 4-H or the National Archery in Schools Program. S3DA addresses the need for a program to bridge beginning target archery experience and more advanced activities such as 3-D shooting and bowhunting. The program currently operates across the United States with hundreds of certified coaches serving thousands of young archers, grades 3–12.
