Welcome Archery Family! This is the Archery Parent Podcast - What you need to know to best support your Archer.
The Archery Parent Podcast is a Survival Guide for family and friends.
We will take you from the Beginner Archer to competition, and into High-Performance. Don't worry, this podcast has nothing to do with How to Shoot. We're leaving that up to your Archer. We will talk about everything you, as an Archery Parent, are responsible for.
We'll cover:
*Indoor to outdoor Archery and the differences
*The nuances of the Canadian Archery community
*How to Find a Coach
*Crossing the Canada/US border with Archery equipment
*Costs
*Travel
*Reviews of products that will make your life easier
*Where to shop for Archery equipment
*The importance of creating a community
*Nutrition and General Health
*Getting ready for your first outdoor tournament
*How to get involved
*What to say and what not to say to your Archer
*The future of Archery in Canada
And, we will have interviews with special guests from Canada, the USA, and abroad
There's so much more we can't wait to share with you.
