COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - USA Archery is excited to
announce a new look to the Scoring Matrices for the
Adult Archery and Junior
Olympic Archery Development (JOAD) Programs.
Thanks to USA Archery's Achievement Program, beginning,
intermediate and advanced archers are rewarded for staying engaged in the sport
of archery by setting and reaching new goals. Archers who are members of
registered USA Archery JOAD and Adult Archery clubs enjoy the ability to earn
achievement award pins (pictured above, at right) based on the scores they shoot at
different distances.
The JOAD and Adult Archery Programs each have a Scoring
Matrix for indoors and outdoors, which include barebow/basic compound, recurve,
and compound divisions. Matrices explain
exactly how archers can earn awards through USA Archery's Achievement Program,
and which awards they are eligible to receive.
Archers and club leaders can now reference Scoring
Matrices with a new, more professional and easy-to-read layout, that have
better quality graphics and improved ease-of-use.

JOAD Scoring Matrices here.

Matrices here.
Additionally, adult archers and club leaders should note
that the new name of the program targeted toward adults is the "Adult Archery
Program" (formerly known as Adult Archery Achievement), which more clearly
differentiates this developmental program from USA Archery's Achievement
Program (which refers to the system of achievement awards noted above).
Per recommendations from USA Archery's Athletes
Advisory Council, some Achievement Award scores for adults have also
been updated to reflect realistic goals for athletes at different stages in
their development as archers. Please see
