National Pathway Squads (NPS)

National Pathway Squads (NPS)

The Archery Australia National Pathways Squad (NPS) is a long term, holistic development program. The program replaces the previous P24 programs and is designed to identify talented archers across Australia and support them towards entering the National Recurve Program (NRP) and National Para Program (NPP)
as well as support selection for relevant international events.

The NPS also aims to educate and develop archers in growing their High-Performance behaviours, transition into well rounded athletes, as well as be resilient and independent athletes that engage with
Archery Australia programs. The program is nationally focused and has been developed by the Archery Australia High Performance
team and aligns with our AA Pathways strategic plan (2022-28) as well as Archery Australia’s Strategic plan (2022 – 2026).

The program is partnered with the AIS Performance Pathways unit and has been developed to provide a pathway for athletes wishing to represent Australia at major international events.

The program is open to Olympic and Paralympic disciplines.
