Handbook, Bylaws, & NASP Rules

Please take a moment to review the handbook using the link below.

All archers and their parents/guardians are expected to read both the handbook and the Archery Code of Conduct.

These documents provide important information about our rules, expectations, and answer many frequently asked questions. Familiarizing yourself with them will help ensure a smooth, productive, and exciting season for everyone.

Thank you for your time and commitment to our team!

Archery Code of Conduct

As an archer participating in my school’s NASP archery program, I understand and accept the following responsibilities:

I understand I am an Ambassador of New Prague High School and New Prague Archery, both on and off the field.

• • • I will respect the rights and beliefs of others and will treat others with courtesy and consideration.

    • I will be fully responsible for my own actions and the consequences of my actions.

    • I will respect the property of others.

    • I will respect and obey the rules of my school, archery program, and community.

    • I will show respect to those who are responsible for enforcing the rules of my school, archery program, and community.

If caught cheating at a tournament will result in an automatic disqualification and 2 week suspension from tournaments.  The archer will have to apologize to the team before allowed to shoot again in a tournament.  The second time they will be removed from the program.

Archers breaking the rules or participating in inappropriate conduct during the season can result in sitting out of practice, and/or tournament, and potentially being removed from the program.

• First violation will result in verbal warning.

• Second violation will result in removal from practice and notice to parents.

• Third violation will result from removal from club.

• Only draw a bow with a NOCKED arrow pointing DOWNRANGE.

• I am ATTENTIVE and LISTEN to all instructions.

• Always WALK on the archery range.

• Follow all WHISTLE commands

• Collect arrows only when told to “RETRIEVE.”
