Youth and Adult archery achievement program

Though we have a lot of fun at our classes with archery games, we are very serious about creating avid archers at Golden Gate JOAD and encouraging them to always work to improve their skills.  We also encourage our students to strive to shoot better, in part, by motivating them with the USAA Youth and Adult achievement STARS programs.  The STARS is a series of awards that students earn by shooting higher and higher scores at a series of tiers.  Each tier awards the student a pin, like these shown below.
