USA ARCHERY CERTIFIED
COACHES IN SC
South Carolina has many individuals that are certified archery coaches through the USA Archery Coaching
Certification Program. There are multiple levels of certification that a coach can obtain. More information
regarding these levels and how to contact an archery coach can be found on the USA Archery website.
http://www.teamusa.org/USA-Archery/Coaching/Find-an-Instructor- or-Coach
Level 1 Instructor - A Level 1 Instructor is most closely associated with a "grassroots" program
that is short-term in scope and focused on introducing basic archery skills to beginners. Such
programs would include: camps outing, 4-H, and Parks and Recreation. (Coaches can be found on
the website above.)
Level 2 Instructor A Level 2 Instructor works with a more established archery program such as
J.O.A.D., A.S.A.P., college clubs and local clubs with a strong beginner component. Level 2
Instructors are also certified to teach Level 1 courses.
Level 3-NTS Coach The Level 3 course moves away from group instruction and into individual
athlete development. Level 3 Coaches are certified to teach Level 1 and Level 2 courses.
Level 4-NTS Coach Level 4 Certification is appropriate for Level 3 Coaches looking to advance
their coaching skills and become eligible for USA Archery national camps and International Team
Staff (ITS) positions. Level 4 Coaches are certified to teach Level 1 and 2 courses.

ASA 3-D archery features competitive rounds of 20 lifelike, three-dimensional animal targets made of foam. The
scoring rings are not visible from the shooting stake and binoculars are allowed. Advanced archers must
determine the distance to the target, pick a good aiming point, and execute the shot. The ASA was the first
archery organization to implement a speed limit for safety and to establish a level playing field for 3-D
competition. Beginning in 2007, the ASA was the first national organization to incorporate known distance
competition to provide competitors with another option for competing in 3-D archery.
If you are a target archer, bowhunter or just interested in getting started in archery, the ASA will provide you the
opportunity to meet and share experiences with new friends, learn about the latest equipment, improve your
archery skills, and spend time with great people.

Championship (one day shoot). Times will be posted on the website for these
tournaments. All competitors must be a member of the SCAA/NFAA or participate in
the guest class. In the event that a State tournament cannot be held on the assigned
date, an alternate date will be set by the Board of Directors.
The Rules and Regulations governing tournaments 1 through 6 are as described in the
current NFAA Constitution and Bylaws Handbook. ARTICLE II, ARTICLE III, ARTICLE IV,
ARTICLE VI An abbreviated description of the below events can be found on the SCAA
website.
1. State Vegas Round Championship

AM. A banquet and awards ceremony will follow the tournament.
2. State 3-D tournaments are to consist of twenty five (25) targets and 14s are for
score.
3. All SCAA classes will be recognized except for Bowhunter B.
4.
A competitor must be a current NFAA/SCAA member in advance to compete for
any State Championship tournament in order to participate for a Championship or
the SOY.
SCAA Shooter of the Year (SOY) Championship Rules and Information
Competition will be governed as follows:
1. A competitor must compete in at least 4 of the State Target Tournaments and have
a State 3D score to be eligible to compete for Shooter of the Year in his or her class
for that year.
2. All state target scores will be prorated to a max score of 900. This balances all
tournaments to be weighted equally. State Champion 3-D scores will be not be
prorated to a total score of 900 points, but will be added to the sum of the
prorated State Target Scores.
3. The four highest prorated target scores along with the State 3D score will count
towards the SCAA Shooter of the Year totals.
5. SCAA 3D classes will be used for the Shooter of the Year competition. Bowhunter B
is not a recognized class for Shooter of the Year.
6. A competitor must be a current NFAA/SCAA member to compete for any State
Championship tournament and the SOY competition.
7. A competitor must compete in comparable classes, based on equipment, between
NFAA and SCAA 3D classes. It is the competitor’s responsibility to verify with state
officials if there is a question about like classes.
8. Bowhunter Novice and Hunter Unlimited are target classes recognized by the SCAA,
however competitors in these classes will not receive an NFAA award. If a
competitor in these classes wishes to receive an NFAA award, they must shoot in a
comparable NFAA class based on their equipment. Archers whose bows are
equipped with fixed pins and a stabilizer of 12” inches or less can shoot Bowhunter
Freestyle. Archers whose bows are equipped with moveable sights and a stabilizer
longer than 12” can shoot in the Freestyle class.
9. A competitor may change SOY classes before the third state tournament. Shooter
of the Year points will not be transferred to the new class.
10. If a shooter changes age classification, during a tournament season, they need to
start off in that age groups class in order for all of the results to count towards 3D
state championship and SOY. For example, cub is 11 yrs old and turns 12 before last
Championship tournament, they should start the season in youth 12-14.
11. At State, Sectional or National Championship tournaments a separate guest class
will be offered. If the guest class and its competitors are on the same course they
must give way to the competitors participating for the Championship.
12. Bowhunter Novice Shooter of the Year and 3D Champion: A competitor can win
the 3D Championship, Regional or SOY only once in the Bowhunter Novice. He/she
will be ineligible to compete for any Bowhunter Novice Championships.
GENERAL TOURNAMENT RULES
CONDUCT
A. Un-sportsmanlike conduct at an event will not be tolerated. Any violation of conduct, rules or
of the SCAA Constitution & Bylaws will be handled with the Board of Directors. Actions taken
by the Board of Directors will be final.
B.
Verbal abuse or slander directed toward a Competitor, Tournament Official or guest while on
club properties will result in immediate disqualification of the shooter from the Tournament.
A report filed with the Board of Directors for further disciplinary action can be submitted.
C. ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES AND DRUGS ARE PROHIBITED.
D. No shooter will be allowed to compete while under the influence of alcohol or any other
controlled substance. The penalty is immediate disqualification and sanction of membership.
Also local laws apply as to conduct with possible arrest.
E. Please help keep our ranges clean. Littering the grounds of any tournament will not be
permitted. Cigarette butts are the #1 littering item and a potential fire hazard.
F.
Competitors are responsible for their guests. Your guests are required to behave in such a
manner as to allow competitors to compete in a professional environment. Any Competitor
can ask for the removal of a guest from the range for misconduct or creating a disturbance.
G. Protests can be made in accordance with ARTICLE VIII. PAR 8, PROTESTS of the SCAA
Constitution.
TOURNAMENT REGISTRATION SCORING and Other Rules
A. Each Competitor is responsible for completing any registration form(s) and that the
information is correct in your classification. After the tournament begins, it will not be
possible to make changes or additions. Compliance to shooting and equipment rules are
required to compete.
B. Shooting groups must have at least three shooters and no more than five shooters.
Exceptions are allowed if permissible by the hosting club.
C. Each archer will shoot their arrows with one foot touching the appropriate stake for their
division and class in which they are registered. Handicap vehicles or equipment can be
position in a way near the stake for the shooter to execute a safe shot.
D. Scoring for 3D targets will be 14, 12, 10, 8, 5 and 0 in the respective scoring rings. Individual
clubs may use or not use the 14 ring at their discretion for club shoots. When ASA 12’s are in
play and the target has an upper 12, the upper 12 may be “called”. This will make the upper
12 for score as a 12 and eliminate the lower 12 from scoring. The lower 12 scoring area
becomes part of the 10 ring. 10, 14 rings will be included as scoring opportunities for State
Championship 3D shoots.
E. Tournament scorecards:
1. Each shooter will receive two (2) score cards for each round. All information on each
scorecard must be filled out and correct. Each group will designate two (2) members of their
group to call scores and two (2) members to record the scores. (If the group has only three (3)
shooters, the minimum per group, only one (1) will call arrows). Archers will draw for the
shooting order in their respective groups and rotate the shooting order. (For club shoots a
shooter may be given one (1) score card.)
2. All arrows must remain in the target and should not be touched until all arrows are scored.
The arrow shaft must touch any portion of the scoring ring, regardless of deformity of the
scoring rings or angle of the arrow in the target to be scored the higher value. The status of
any questionable arrows must be determined before removing any arrows from the target. If
both score callers agree, the score called is final. If there is disagreement in the designated
callers, a third caller from the group other than the archer whose arrow is in question will
make the final call. If a questionable arrow exists in groups of three, the designated caller will
make his call. If the archer whose arrow is in question does not agree or it is the caller’s
arrow, he may have one of the scores make the final call. In all cases the third call is final.
3. Score callers will judge and score each arrow and call out the results to the scorekeepers. This
will be recorded on the respective shooters scorecard. Running scores can be checked during
the progression of the round to eliminate errors.
4. Both completed scorecards must be totaled and signed as correct by the score keepers and
the shooter and turned in at the assigned area. Failure to sign scorecard will result in a NO
SCORE for that round. Each shooting group must turn in their scorecards together (except
when a shooter is permitted to makeup targets due to equipment failure or other approved
leave of emergency). Any individual or group that does not turn in their cards before leaving
the range (taking cards with them) will receive a score of “X” for that day’s score. “X” will be
used instead of the number (0) on all cards, symbolizing “NO SCORE”.
F.
Arrows passing through the face, but still in the target, will be pushed back and scored.
G. Any arrows deflected by a foreign object or miss fired will be scored where it lies.
H. Any arrow embedded in the nock of another arrow (generally known as a “Robin Hood”) will
be scored the same as the arrow it struck and skewered, even if it falls to the ground and not
in said target. If the arrow contacts another arrow and continues past the target it is scored a
miss.
I.
Tie scores for 1st, 2nd and 3rd will be a shoot off if 2 or more competitors for the place are
present. If a shoot off can’t be completed, the tie breaker will be the most 14’s and 12’s
(combined), 10’s, 8’s and so forth for 3D. Most X’s, highest scoring ring, next highest and so
forth for target events.
J.
A witnessed bounce-out will be re-shot. If an arrow is shot at a target and is suspected by the
archer or the group as a pass-through, proceed by letting the next archer in order shoot.
Archers not standing at the stake should always observe where the arrow strikes the target
for this reason. When all shooters of a group have completed shooting, one (1) “scorer” may
proceed to the target to see if there was a pass-through or if the arrow is embedded in the
target. If it is embedded in the target, he will request the group to come to the target, and
observe pushing back the arrow to score. If the arrow has passed-through, then the “scorer”
has to return to the group so the archer can shoot another arrow at the target to score. As
soon as possible, tell Range officials which target you had a pass-through on, so it can be
replaced or repaired.
K. Arrows cannot be touched before scoring. If any shooter pulls arrows from a target before all
arrows are officially recorded to the cards, that shooter automatically receives an “X” for said
target.
L.
No shooter will glass the target while standing at the shooting stake after shooting their
arrow. Shooters may glass the target prior to shooting, but still be reminded of the time
factor restrictions. After assuming their position at the stake, 2 minutes are allowed to shoot
one (1) arrow. The shooter will receive a verbal warning from the group or range official for
the first offense. Second warning will be a five point (5) penalty from target score, but no less
than an “X”. Each subsequent offense will receive same (5) pt. penalty but no less than an “X”.
M. An arrow inadvertently dropped while transferring the arrow from the quiver to the bow in
preparation of a shot or an arrow that falls or drops off the arrow rest to the ground may be
recovered if within reach of the archer, (no assistance with any type of equipment) from the
appropriate shooting stake. When a mechanical release is attached or fingers set-up is applied
to the string and the arrow is propelled towards the target whether it is in reach or not it is a
shot arrow.
EQUIPMENT
N. EQUIPMENT FAILURE: An archer declaring equipment failure, verified by the group may leave
the range to report the equipment failure to a tournament official. Upon reporting to an
official, the archer will have forty-five minutes (45) to make necessary repairs or replacement
and re-sight the repaired equipment. The archer will then rejoin the original group and
continue shooting the remaining targets. All targets missed will be shot under make up rules
with a scorekeeper and witness. Any equipment failure that results in an arrow being released
toward a target will be scored as it lies; a missed target may not be re-shot. Each archer is
limited to one (1) equipment failure per tournament. If a second equipment failure occurs,
the archer will remain with his or her group to act as a scorer or scorekeeper.
O. Binoculars and spotting scopes will be allowed. They may be checked at random tournament
officials or individuals in your shooting group. You may ask to check theirs as well. If any
marks are on the binoculars or scopes and can be used to calculate yardage they must be
removed from play and deemed inappropriate. User can be subject to disqualification.
P. Range finders are only allowed if shooting a known distance class. Distances ranged from a
range finder cannot be discussed during the competition, particularly to anyone that will or
are competing in an unknown class. This applies to Competitors and guest. Range Officials not
Q.
R.
S.
competing in or who has completed the Tournament may range a target for maximum
yardage disputes only.
An archer may not hold any equipment in line with the target for use as a range finder, and
after an archer has set his/her sight, may not let down and re-set the sight.
The SCAA has a 300 ft. per second rule with a 3% variance for chronographs (309 ft) as
measured by the official on-site chronographs. Each competitor understands and agrees that
they may be required to shoot the designated tournament on-site chronographs. If the speed
of that arrow is over 309 fps the competitor can make adjustments to correct the speed and
reshoot an arrow to be documented on scorecard. The only time adjustments are allowed is
before the start of the tournament. At any time during or when turning in scorecards a
competitor may be asked to shoot an arrow through the chronograph. If the arrow exceeds
300 fps, 3 arrows will be shot and averaged for the official speed. A speed which exceeds 309
ft. per sec. will result in immediate disqualification of that round score with no exceptions.
The SCAA/ NFAA maximum draw-weight of a bow shall not exceed eighty pounds (80)lbs.
Tournament Distances:
There will be five shooting stakes set with these color and maximum yards:
50 yds (orange)

The maximum yardages are listed in the SCAA division chart. Each club will do their
best to adhere to the maximum yardages for each class. At times targets may be
inadvertently set out to far. If a target is over maximum, the first archer must notify
the hosting club prior to shooting, otherwise it must remain for all archers for the
duration of the tournament.
Bowhunter stakes are to be placed in the shooting lane to give a clear line of sight
to the target scoring areas.

SCAA REGIONAL 3D CHAMPIONSHIP
Rules for the region are set to best meet the needs of the each region.
SCAA rules, yardages, and classes apply. Bowhunter B is excluded from regional
competition. If you win the regional competition in Bowhunter Novice, you must move
to a higher class.
A. Every regional tournament will be casual registration. These tournaments are
labeled on the tournament schedule. In the lower region, every tournament (unless
noted on the schedule) will be a regional competition. In the upper region, 2
tournaments at each club will be designated as a regional competition.
B. By the current arrangement, upper and lower state clubs are as follows:
Upstate: Keowee, TAB, and Midlands
Lower State: Sandune, Wildlife Action, Lake Marion, Broken Arrow and Swamp
Fox
C. To participate in the Regional Championship, a Regional 3D Championship
registration form and fee must be submitted to a regional club or SCAA secretary
prior to the start of the shoot (a participant can’t sign up after a shoot and it count
toward the total). A regional membership card will be given to participant and is
required at each regional tournament registration.
D. A regional competitor may only participate in one class for the regional
tournament. This class must be noted on the regional registration form. A
competitor may choose to shoot a tournament in a different class, but this score
will not count for the regional tournament.
E. A competitor may join the regional tournament at any time as long as there are
enough shoots to complete the tournament requirements (one tournament per
regional club). The end date for the regional can be found on the SCAA Tournament
Schedule.
F. A score from each club in the region (upper and/or lower state) is needed to be
eligible for that regional championship.
G. Each Club will maintain the same number of targets, 25 or 30, throughout the year.
NOTE; if the 3D Championship applies to the Regional Championship and the host
club normally sets 30 targets, then the 25 target shoot will be prorated to a 30
target format for the Upper or Lower Regional Championship.
H. The competitor’s highest score from each regional club tournament will be
combined to determine their Regional Championship score. A regional scoreboard
and standings can be followed on the SCAA website.
I. A tie for championship is broken based on the number of SCAA tournaments a
competitor participated in during the year. These shoots do not have to be regional
specific or strictly 3D. For example, an Upper Regional participant could shoot a
State Spot Tournament at a Lower Regional Club and this tournament would count
in the tie breaker.
J. SCAA has a speed rule of a maximum of 300 fps with a 3% variance. All regional
shooters must be prepared to shoot through a chronograph. A disqualification of
tournament score will result if a competitor shoots over the maximum speed after
beginning the tournament. (excludes Known 40 Outlaw)
K. Regional competitors must shoot in a group with 3 adults. These adults do not
need to be regional shooters. SCAA defines adult as a competitor that is 18 years
old or older.
L. The number of places/trophies awarded will be based upon the SCAA TrophyAward chart.
M. A competitor can win the 3D Championship, Regional OR SOY only once in the
Bowhunter Novice. He/she will then be ineligible to compete in any of these
competitions in the Bowhunter Novice class.
