Have you heard of S3DA Archery?? It is a national program that is active in over 30 states. For youth archers it is attractive because they are free to use any equipment of their choice. Competitions are based on age, male or female, and equipment type. S3DA allows youth archers to progress from elementary school through high school and even into shooting at the collegiate level. S3DA is a way to earn archery scholarships as well.
Competitions are regional, state and national. It's a great way to expand your NASP interest if you love archery!!
Backyard Archers S3DA club meets weekly all year. We have practice indoor and outdoor to prepare for competitions. If you'd like to know more please call 573-680-0575 to learn more!
The following Backyard Archers S3DA members attended the 2026 Missouri S3DA Indoor State Championship on February 8th. The tournament was held at the State Tech Activity Center in Linn, MO. They put in the work and effort behind the bow and all did so great! Congratulations!
