National Recurve Program

The Archery Australia (AA) National Recurve Program (NRP) is designed to deliver programs which ultimately produce Recurve Archery Champions at benchmark events including World Archery Championships and Olympic Games, and Champions at the World Archery Youth Championships.

The purpose of the NRP is to provide a system of support for Archery Australia’s leading Recurve archers in a structured, sequential, and transparent manner that supports the athletes in achieving performances which are aligned to Archery Australia’s published performance goals. The NRP has three distinct components:

• National Squad

• National Development Squad

• National Youth Squad

 

The NRP recognises that Federal Government funding through the Australian Institute of Sport (AIS) and State/Territory Government funding through the National Institute Network (NIN), is directed solely at Olympic and Paralympic disciplines.

How to apply

Athletes wishing to apply for the NRP should review and understand the NRP document paying special attention to the performance requirements, eligibility requirements and expectations of athletes in the program. The program is demanding and requires dedication, commitment and time. Only athletes who are willing to make that commitment should apply.
