On September 11th, 2025, Anderson Archery Inc. welcomed community members interested in archery to learn about the upcoming season. We discussed the upcoming practice and tournament dates, as well as the benefits of becoming a club member. 

All the information needed to join Anderson Archery, Inc. is available on our website. Practice days will be Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays from 5:30 pm to 7:30 pm.  

We do require all members to join a National Archery Organization to be covered with liability insurance. This will ensure that medical expenses will be covered if an injury occurs at an archery-related event. Below is a chart comparing the different membership types and the benefits that are provided. 

For new and existing club members,  membership tiers and dues can be found at the bottom of this page. We do require a liability form for all members and guests to also be completed. This form is good for 1 year from the date it is signed. You can grab one of these forms at the club or print it using the link below. 

We will continue to use the TeamLinkt communicate app. You can find the link to the app below. Please ask any of the coaches or board members for the group code if you find that you will need one. 

We are excited to begin this new season and can't wait to watch our members grow in their archery skills and abilities. 

Junior Olympic Archery Development (JOAD) is a program for youth archers 8-20 years old. Participants in the JOAD program can enjoy the sport recreationally or progress to the excitement of competition. The JOAD program offers barebow, basic compound, recurve, pins, and compound archers the opportunity to learn range safety and proper shooting technique in an environment that also fosters increased self-confidence and team-building skills. 

The Adult Archery Program is a program of USA Archery for adults, age 21 and older. Participants in the Adult Archery Program can enjoy the sport recreationally or progress to the excitement of competition. Similar to JOAD, the Adult Archery Program offers barebow, basic compound, recurve, compound, pins, and traditional archers the opportunity to learn range safety and proper shooting technique, and also offers opportunities for stress release, socialization, and fun.

Both adults and youth archers can participate in national and local tournaments in indoor target, outdoor target, and field target. 

Currently, Anderson Archery has more USA Archery credentials than any other JOAD club in the state, with four Level 3 NTS Archery Coaches, two Level 2 Archery Instructors, and one Level 1 USA Archery Instructor. We hope to bring on two new Level 2 archery instructors in the fall of 2025. In addition to these coaches and instructors, Anderson Archery has 3 archers that are ranked in the top 4 of the USA Archery Team: Madalynn Puryear (U21 Pins- 1st), Maddison Stratton (U18 Pins-2nd), and Delana Puryear (U15 Pins-2nd). 

We are grateful for the 2023-2025 sponsorships. With their help we have been able to update our range, build risers for target stands, update and purchase indoor/outdoor targets, repair safety equipment, add security equipment to the range, and to invest in our archers.
