JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. – More than 100 students from Missouri’s National Archery in the Schools Program (MoNASP) traveled to Sandy, UT to compete in the 2022 Western National Bullseye and 3D Tournament held April 29-30.
MoNASP is coordinated through the Missouri Department of Conservation, the Missouri Conservation Heritage Foundation (MCHF), and the Conservation Federation of Missouri in partnership with more than 700 participating schools and numerous supporting organizations throughout the state. More than 200,000 Missouri students participate in the program. MoNASP is an affiliate of NASP and promotes education, self-esteem, and physical activity for students in grades 4-12 through participation in the sport of archery. Statistics show school archery programs improve students’ school attendance, increase their self-esteem and physical activity, help them relate to subject matter, and help get them outdoors.
A total of 1,359 archers from 22 states attended this year’s bullseye tournament. A total of 968 archers from 19 states participated in the 3D challenge. Six Missouri teams competed in the NASP Western National Tournament, while 102 archers competed in both the individual bullseye challenge and 3D challenge.
