Physical education teachers are invited to attend a FREE 8-hour Basic Archery Instructor (BAI) course. Teachers who who successfully complete the BAI course may implement the Archery in the Schools Program in their school.

The course content is designed to teach archery instruction techniques to both archery novices as well as experienced archers.  Course content includes range set up and safety, string bow training aids, the eleven steps to archery success, coaching techniques, equipment nomenclature, inspection, operation, maintenance and repair.

Because BAI classes are conducted in school gymnasiums, teachers may volunteer their school to host a BAI course. All classes are scheduled on a regional basis, with a minimum of 8 particpants required.
