Scholastic 3-D Archery National Championship

Posted by Wayne G. Barber

Louisville, KY - Date: June 17-19 Scholastic 3-D Archery (S3DA) held their 3rd National 3-D Championship at Mermet Lake State Conservation Area in Metropolis, IL. A total of 407 shooters from 13 states took part in the competition. Due to the growth of the S3DA National 3-D Championship, this year's tournament was the first stand-alone National Championship for the organization.

It was previously held in conjunction with the London, Kentucky ASA Pro/Am event. The S3DA National Championship was a great time for S3DA students, coaches and their families. The shoot downs in all age divisions, as well as all shooting classes, were a huge success.

"What an inspiring weekend," said Lincoln Tapp, Host of the Young Wild television show on the Outdoor Channel. "The S3DA Nationals was such an awesome event, and one that will definitely be on my schedule every year. Proud to be a part of what this organization is doing and where they are going!"

"I am always amazed at the unbelievable sportsmanship demonstrated by all the archers regardless of their skill level," says Kyle McKune, Coach for Moore Traditional school in Louisville Kentucky. "I have been around all types of sports and no other sport can hold a candle to the sportsmanship demonstrated in archery."

"S3DA is a top notch organization and they ran a top notch event this past weekend," added Cody Kirby, Head Archery Coach for Union College. "As a college coach it was great to see the level of competition continuing to improve. These kids have a great competitive fire that was exciting to watch. I look forward to recruiting from this talent pool going forward."

"It was great to see the tremendous energy and fun that the kids were having while participating," added Mike Tyrell, President of the Archery Shooters Association. "ASA is proud to play a small part in the growth of S3DA which is having a tremendous impact on youth and their families through archery. We look forward to seeing its continued growth."
