Woodlands JOAD parent volunteers are highly encouraged to become certified level one / level two; you need not be an expert archer, just willing to learn the basics.
Disclosure 1. I am in no way an expert on compound archery, so if that is what you are looking for, I will try to coordinate to have someone assist me.

LEVEL III-NTS
Level 3-NTS Coaching Certification/Education course will be held the weekend of February 7, 8, & 9, 2014 in the North Austin/Cedar Park area.
This course will be conducted by American Archers Level IV-NTS coach Ron Carmichael and Level III-NTS coach Lindsey Carmichael.
The course fee is $350 and includes course manual and building use fees. In addition each candidate must have a copy of the book "Archery" by USA Archery.
LEVEL III candidates must have been practicing, active, Level II for one year, or else be able to "pass out" of an extensive examination and be able to show a 3-year history of active archery instruction. A Level III Coaching Course will be held on a 3-day weekend with substantial pre-study homework assigned (involving primarily the Archery book mentioned above).
MORE:
The USA Archery Level III-NTS coaching certification course is based on specific criteria. No one can acquire a level III-NTS level without demonstrating a complete command of the elements of the National Training System. This will NOT be a typical 3-day cram-it-all-in-and-wonder course. You will have a great working knowledge that will serve you well.
Candidates will NOT be guaranteed a coaching certificate just by showing up and passing the written test. A comprehensive and practical verbal test on the NTS will also be a part of this course. By the end of the course you should be prepared to "stand and deliver" a complete and thorough summary of the NTS method, and be able to correctly identify and remediate flaws.
There is extensive pre-course preparation required, "homework" like you may never have experienced for any other coaching or instructor course.
I propose to begin your learning course early, over a period of at least a month, instead of all during one weekend. The 3-day meeting weekend will be a CONFIRMATION and a REINFORCEMENT for what you should acquire during that month of study. For example, if you show up on Friday without knowing what the elements are of the NTS, then you will have a harder time passing the course.
The course will also deal with the many differences between being an instructor and being a coach. The course will include actual shooting only to the point of establishing your ability to utilize the NTS yourself, and to teach it to others. This is a coaching course, not a shooting seminar.
AGAIN: HOW do you prepare properly to be an NTS-qualified coach?
Buy a copy of USA Archery's ARCHERY magazine (Amazon has it). STUDY it like it is the most important textbook you have ever had in school. USE a highlighter. Begin employing what you glean from the book in your own shooting method as much as possible.
If you cannot know for sure what the relevant things in the book are, you need to assume that *every* sentence in the book concerning the NTS has some impact to being a better NTS coach.
If you are still interested in this course, please email me (Ron) to let me know. The course may fill up at some point, so please pencil yourself in asap. Payment will not be required until January 15, at which time the registration will be closed and course materials will be ordered. <hint> BUY THE BOOK NOW even if you do not plan to attend the course, and start working through it, line by line.
Thanks, Ron

Instructors who are looking to advance their knowledge and techniques to the higher level required to attain this higher level of competency. Certified Community Coaches

In general you will receive instruction according to a designated course curriculum. Generally, the topics we will cover in this course include:
Introduction and Coaching Challenges, the Philosophy of "coaching"
- Coaching Philosophies in depth, defining and understanding goals well enough to set them appropriately
- Mental Aspects of Archery, especially dealing with the Archery Shot Execution - the shot cycle
- Periodization and creating effective and customized training cycles - Athletic Training Cycles
- Goal Setting & Acquiring - Reaching Each Goal
- Preparing for Competition
- Equipment Selection & Preparation
- Training Intermediate Instructors
- Resources Online, Nutrition, Medication and Drug Knowledge, and other aspects, bringing them all together
- The course fee is $250.00 and includes extensive support as well as digital and print
materials.
Class size is limited to no more than 12, insuring an excellent ratio for student-teacher.
Please contact Ron Carmichael at 512-797-4127 (cell) for more information, as soon as possible, or write using the email address at the top paragraph of the page...
This is a very intensively satisfying way to gain a lot of information quickly, which can greatly improve your abilities as both an archer and as an archery coach, taught in
a classroom setting with two very highly qualified archery coach instructors.
It will held in the Anna Hiss Gym on the UT Campus. Registrants will be sent a map with their confirmation, and will also get instructions on how to submit their background check information which is required by USA Archery for all elite coaches.

Friday, 4pm to 8pm

Your Teachers:
Level 3 coach Lindsey Carmichael became the first American woman in 34 years to achieve a medal for Team USA in Beijing, in singles competition, when she shot the highest recurve matchplay score of the day in winning bronze. She also set a world record and several paralympian records in Athens in the 2004 games. She is a veteran of many state, national, and international events, having competed as both an able-bodied and paralympian level archer, several years an All-American as well as Academic All-American, and member of the US Archery Team from 2004 through 2008. Her highest able-bodied ranking in USA was 8th, and 4th in the world as a paralympian.
Regional High Performance Coach/level 4 coach Ron Carmichael has been a coach for more than 11 years, has a firm grounding in the National Training System, as a pharmacist an equally firm grasp of additional topics concerning nutrition, supplementation, and USADA compliance aspects, and has coached at the University of A for 7 years. He was team leader for the USA Collegiate Team championship team to the World University Archery Championships in Shenzhen, China in 2010, as a member of the International Training Staff was assistant team leader to the first stage of the World Cup 2009 in the Dominican Republic. He coached the first American woman to medal in singles archery competition in 34 years for Team USA, during the Beijing Paralympics. He is one of only two archery coaches ever to have been awarded the IKKOS medal by the USOC for excellence in archery coaching. He is also an expert in the use of photography as a coaching tool.
Together these two coaches will insure you are completely prepared for dealing with the advanced nature of not just instructing, but truly coaching, athletes.

Our ultimate goal/game plan is to help market the sport of archery, by acting as an agent to aid coaches and athletes.
For athletes:
Lorinda Cohen & Tara Robey feel a need to positively promote the sport. They want to market the sport more the the entertainment world. In return, the entertainment industry will hopefully use our resources for help. We plan to act somewhat like a sport's agent to our U.S. Athletes. We want to provide athletes with an avenue for income, publicity, and enhance future opportunities.
For coaches:
In the same manner, we will help market all coaches by promoting them to the archery community. Our goals on the local level is to create programs and development for youth? We advocate the BEST Method by getting involved with the Olympic Archery in Schools and surrounding B.E.S.T. youth programs.

Level 1 Instructor (formerly Basic) A Level 1 Instructor is most closely associated with a "grassroots" program that is short-term in scope and focused on introducing basic archery skills to beginners. It is also highly appropriate for parents of young archers showing potential and interest in growth in the sport. Being a level I instructor/parent will help avoid pitfalls and deadends, and insure wise decision-making processes. Also a level I helps those involved with such programs as camps, Scouting, 4-H, and Parks and Recreation....

- Length of Course: 10 hours
- Prerequisites**: Minimum age: 15

- Any Level 1 Instructor who wants individual insurance coverage will need to become a member of USA Archery and complete a background check (ed. note: the American Archers membership is highly recommended but not required)
Level II Courses build upon the level I, and greatly enhance the knowledgeset of the instructor.
To express interest in these courses send an email to UTArcheryCoach with "CERTIFICATION" as the subject of the email. Please include your name, phone number, DOB, the course level desired, and of course, email address, and a brief description of your archery background. It's not a committment to attend, just a "hey, I am seriously interested".

COMMUNITY COACHING CERTIFICATION COURSE (CCC)
The instructor course teaches the fundamentals designed to insure a basic knowledge and level of safety and how to teach these to others..
The prerequisites are that you have to be a Intermediate Instructor for one year (NASP BAIT’s also qualify) or a Basic Instructor for two years and be able to pass the “test-in” test (NAST BAI’s also qualify).
The CCC goes to a higher plain of awareness, beginning the process of converting the instructor into an actual "coach".
To me, the title of "coach"is an honorific as well as several other things - to be worthy of such takes a dedication to learning more than just how to teach to hold a bow. When done properly, a "coach" is no less significant than "doctor", "minister", etc...
It also goes to how you nurture and provide the athlete with a philosophy, your philosophy as well as expertise, integrated deeply with their goals which they do not even know they have. Being a "COACH" is a tremendous honor and responsibility. If you take this CCC with me I will give you the right start to becoming a coach.

I finally took the plunge into the digital age and started a website for myself!
I have been coaching for a long time and I wanted a way to reach out to the archery community. Please feel free to look around and explore. For those archers looking for a coach, look no further! I am fully qualified to teach Recurve, Compound, Traditional, Long Bow and pretty much any other discipline you can throw at me. I have taught archers from beginner to World and Olympic team members. Take a look at my Current link to see some of the archers I have been coaching. I live in a quiet town in Missouri where I have a fully equipped Training Facility that allows for shooting throughout the year. If you are interested in learning how to shoot please see my Contact page and get back to me however you see fit. Thanks for stopping by! Larry Skinner, Coach

ACCESS modules: Unit 1 Shooting Form Analysis- The facilitator
will be actually coaching the participants (so they can experience being
professionally coached- many participants have not been), videotaping them
shooting for later analysis, and leading the video sessions using the videotape
of the participants as well as stock video clips on the accompanying disk. Teaching Optimal Form- This module is a
key module for the ACCESS series. In it, the most favorable and forgiving
archery form is described and exercises to teach it are shared. This module is
scheduled for at least a half day of instruction time and spent on the range
trying those elements of optimum form with which the participants may be
unfamiliar. Unit 2 Compound Bow Dynamics- This is a topic
in which it is expected that participants’ understanding will be widely varied.
Some re-curve bow archers do no understand compound bows at all. Even some
compound bow archers do no understand compound bows at all. This module will
bring everyone to the same level. This module is
scheduled for three hours of instruction time, with about the last hour spent
showing the use of a bow press (inserting peep sites, replacing bow strings,
adjusting cable lengths, etc.) Tuning Examined- This module is
scheduled for 4.5 hours of instruction time, including the “Bow Tuning Game” at
the end. Each of the tuning principals (re-curve, compound, and arrow tuning)
with its accompanying chart should be discussed in detail. Archery Crafts- This module will
be demonstrating and guiding the participants in performing: Arrow assembly (fletching,
gluing on nocks, inserting points, & inserts) Arrow disassembly (stripping
vanes, removing nocks, points, & inserts) Arrow straightening (use of
straightener, stripping jig) Bow string work( instead of
focusing on making a whole new bow string, we will have the participants make a
center serving, tie on a nocking point locator, and create a D- loop) It is scheduled
for a total of 4.0 hours of instruction time. Unit 3 Aiming and Sighting- In this module
the topic is aiming and sighting, a topic which it is expected that the
participants understanding will be widely varied. This module will bring
everyone to the same page. This module is
scheduled for 2.5 hours of instruction time with about the last hour spent on
the range trying out those methods of aiming of which the participants are
unfamiliar. The Release- This module topic
is the release (both fingers and with release aids) which is expected the
participants understanding is widely varied. Some re-curve archers have never
experienced release aids. Some compound archers start with a release and have
not shot fingers or have not tried a “live” release with a re-curve. Many
archers do not know the basic traditional aiming techniques (gap shooting, sting
walking). This module is
scheduled for 4.5 hours of instruction time with the last hour spent on the
range trying out those methods of releasing which are new to the participants. The Mental Side- This module shows
you the benefit of how your brain works when you participate in archery. It can be
expected the participants understanding of this topic will be widely varied.
The module text can be used as a guide by actually having them do some of the
exercises. The participants will stand and mentally shoot two ends at their home
range (vividly visualizing and feel their shots, the wind, the sun, the smells,
everything) Have them write out a shot sequence. NADA 25145 NW 8th Pl,

The go archery! ™ ProgramThe go archery! ™ program was developed to promote archery
recreation classes throughout the country. It’s divided into a series of 1 hour
classes that can conducted daily, or spread over a series of weeks. To ensure a
prosperous growth for the sport of archery, the
go archery! ™ program is designed to provide archery
instructors with class schedules, and business plans should they choose to
facilitate this program in area recreation centers or other portable venues.
Either as a volunteer instructor, or as paid facilitator, go archery! can be
instrumental in providing a consistent training method for teaching new archers
form and execution. Teaching archery can be a very rewarding occupation. The
first chapter helps you get a go archery! ™ recreation class started. The go archery! ™ Instruction Method go archery! ™
was developed to address the need to find a better way to teach new archers in
the United States. Every new archer should learn good foundation skills in
their early weeks of training so they could enjoy a lifetime participating in
the sport of archery.Archery
is taught in the United States as well as in other successful countries, such as
Korea. In Korea, kids who are enrolled in archery programs start by practicing
three hours per day, six days per week. For the first three to six months they
don’t even shoot a bow. They only go through the motions, or drills. The kids
learn to shoot first without a bow, and then slowly work in to shooting arrows
only after they have perfected the drills.
In the
United States, we tend take the other extreme. To keep the kids interested and
attract them to the sport of archery, we put a bow in their hands right away and
get them shooting as quickly as possible. There are not very many kids in the
United States that would stick with archery if they had to go through the Korean
system. There are just too many other sports or activities competing for their
time.The go archery! ™ method of instruction utilizes proven Korean
methods merged with American reality. We offer the drills and skills for
archers to learn and practice at home. Those that are really interested in
learning proper shooting technique will now have the tools to learn proper
shooting form if they want to put in the effort. go archery! ™
puts a strong emphasis on keeping the student focused on their form and the
process of shooting the shot, rather than the outcome and score. It is
important to repeat this to your students as they progress, especially when you
first put up a target face or introduce an aiming method. This focus on form
and execution can help them enjoy a lifelong career in the sport of archery,
regardless of which style of the sport they may follow.
go archery! ™ Drills and SkillsThe
foundation of the go archery! ™ program is
the Drills & Skills booklet. This booklet is intended as a handout or student
manual for everyone in your recreation classes. It contains their sign-off
sheet so they can be rewarded as they progress through the each drill and
skill. Each page contains a detailed description of the drill or skill to be
learned, along with colorful photos showing the correct technique. Every
student knows what is expected of them before the drill or skill can be signed
off as accomplished.The go archery! ™ curriculum is designed to
provide better instruction for those who are new to the sport of archery. The
Drills & Skills are taught in a progression so students learn proper shooting
technique before bad habits are learned. The go archery! ™ lessons plans
help the instructor introduce each shooting drill and skill in an organized
format. Each class also follows a similar format, creating good practice habits
for your new archery students. Chapter 6 discusses these plans in detail.Another
great feature of the
go archery! ™ method is accountability. The signing off on
the successful learning and mastering of shooting drills and skills makes the
Instructor accountable to the archer and the archer accountable to the
instructor. The drills and skills must be learned correctly before the students
can be signed off. As the instructor, it is important that you make sure the
student has learned or mastered these skills before you sign off in their book.
They must perform the drills or skills perfectly and consistently. This way
they will know when the need to continue working on the drill or skill and what
they need to do to accomplish the task. Chapter 9 explains each drill and skill
along with information on how to teach and evaluate the skills. go

many proven ways to work with archers and loves to share his coaching
techniques. Coaches who attended Coach Kim's seminar in Chula Vista last

school in Korea were also duly impressed! You must take advantage of this
opportunity while he is here. There will be a three to four day clinic at the Morristown/Beard School in Morristown, NJ
on Friday, March 17 through Monday, March 20! We need a reply
from you by email ASAP so we can plan accordingly. We are limiting the

or how many archers you will be bringing. We will begin on Friday
