NASP: Teach archery to your students in grades 4-12

The National Archery in the Schools Program (NASP) is an international-style archery program for students in grades 4-12. NASP is delivered to students by teachers as an in-school lesson plan through a joint venture between the DFG and the California Department of Education.

NASP is very popular in physical education classes, but other disciplines use the program as well. Teachers are trained by the DFG and are asked to undergo an  8-10 hour training class to become a NASP-certified instructor. There is a class material fee of $55 per participant which includes one year of NASP membership.

DFG is offering training classes for educators to deliver the NASP program to elementary, middle and high school students. After school program instructors or other youth organizations are also welcome to apply.

If you are interested in implementing NASP at your school, please read the FAQ and apply online. At the time of application, you may sign up for any of the current trainings being offered or you may request to be notified of a future training. When your application is submitted, you will receive an email response with detailed information. Class material fee of $55 must be paid two weeks prior to class date.
