CLASSROOM sessions commenced the second day of the Olympic Solidarity Level 1 Archery Coaching Course at the National Racquet Centre.

The sessions were to review the previous day’s topics.

Coach Ludys Tejada, the facilitator of the five-day program then talked about the World Antidoping Agency (WADA) and the new updated prohibited list. Archery Guyana and World Archery is committed to the fight against doping and to keeping the sport of Archery clean.

As the rain passed, the participants went outdoors to the shooting range to put the knowledge they learned into practice.

Different tools were made by the participants to correct errors in shooting form. They were learning also to observe each other to point out what the others have to improve.

At the end of the day, the participants learned a lot about form. Coach Tejada commented on the fact that she has been asked a lot of very interesting questions about the size and weight of the bows for children, how to determine if the archer is using a correct bow, exercises for children and adults.

She has declared happily that the participants are putting their heart into archery.
