JOAD archers are provided opportunities beyond the age of 18 via USAA's College Archery program, which includes some 45 clubs and teams. Collegiate archers compete at college meets and in the college division of open tournaments. The top ten male and top ten female shooters from the U.S. Intercollegiate Championship earn All-American status each year. These All-Americans are invited yearly to a training camp at an Olympic Training Center.

Thank you for your interest in the USA Archery Judges Program.
To apply to be accepted as a Judge Candidate:
1) You must be a member of USA Archery for at least one (1) year immediately preceding the application and be 18 years of age or older.
2) You must complete the application form and pass a short test (see below).
Return the application and test along with a check for $35.00, made out to USA Archery. If you pass, you will receive a voucher for the Judge Guidelines Manual and for one Judge's shirt. A name badge will be mailed to you later. Your name will be added to our mailing list for Judge Bulletins and other correspondence.
Our program is one of learning and requires a desire to excel as a Judge. A Judge must agree to comply with established standards in place for re-certification. You will receive Judge Bulletins, case studies (which you are required to answer), correspondence regarding the O&RC activities and FITA rule changes and interpretations. We are responsible to the archers and the tournament organizers to be the best that we can be in our supportive role as Judges. The O&RC will always be at your disposal to offer assistance that you may require.
Your training will consist primarily at being involved at the State and Regional level working along side more experienced Judges. If you wish you can get involved at a National level working USA Archery's championships and trials events. If you choose to progress as a Judge, you can move on to the Regional and National Judge levels.
The first step is to download the application form and test. You will require an up to date FITA Rule book or can download one from the FITA website to answer the test questions. Feel free to contact me should you have any questions or require any additional information on the Judge's Program.
