PURPOSE AND MISSION
The S3DA program fosters, educates and guides youth (along with
their parents) that are interested in the Next-Step from the basic
introduction of archery using real equipment that provides a life time
of opportunities in archery.
PROGRAM DESIGN
S3DA was designed to use a standardized
set of rules that will follow the archer from
the 3rd grade to adulthood.
S3DA rules are standardized with USCA
and ASA rules.
S3DA equipment requirements are all
inclusive. There are no special targets or
equipment limitations that exclude
manufacturers.

they may not do both simultaneously.
