About Jimbows Juniors

---

We offer lessons for the youth on select Saturdays throughout the winter months (Oct-Apr). The classes are an hour long and help teach the athlete the proper form and techniques to become a skilled archery weather your are just looking to have fun, compete or head out and hunt. We currently have 8 certified coaches that work with the athletes.  

Our regular Saturday classes have 3 times on select weekends. (9/10:15/11:30) Each class is 1 hour long.  Each term is 8 classes, and we run two terms between October and April. The classes usually have 12  athletes per class so that we can make sure everyone is getting the proper coaching and attention they  deserve. We have 6 certified coaches that are in with the athletes depending on the weekend. We have all  levels of coaches from introductory to comp-dev for the high calibre athlete. 

Additionally athletes are encouraged to practice outside of class. We have a few programs that help with this. We count  all arrows the athletes shoot through the season, the archers keep track and are rewarded for achieving certain volumes. We also have a badge system for  showing off their achievements that they make in class (score based) This mimics a system that is used  across the country.  

 We highly recommend that anyone in this class have their own equipment. Minimum requirements are a Bow, 6  arrows, Release/Tab/Glove. These item cost can be anywhere from $250 and up depending on style of bow  and equipment you desire.  

 The costs of the classes are as follows:  Membership: $75 for juniors. This is required for all athletes to have insurance and participate in the  program.   Classes: $200 for one session, $350 for both sessions.  If you don’t have your own equipment we do offer rentals. $200/ recurve, $300/compound for a season (16 classes).  We do a yearly fundraiser to help with costs of the programs and upgrade the equipment we use at  tournaments we run. If the archer doesn’t participate in the fundraiser, we do require a $100 fee be paid to the  club.  There are club jerseys and swag available for purchase at time of class registration as well. 

These Classes are currently full for this season. Contact us to be put on the waitlist 

This fall we will be starting a new class. The purpose of this class is to introduce athletes who want to try the sport and to our club.  These classes will be for the new archers, ones who have never been in a class or very limited in school/  camps. Once these classes have been completed, we will try our best to fit you into our regular classes as  room becomes available. Minimum age is 9.   

Introductory classes will be on Monday evenings from 630-8pm. Class dates haven’t been set yet but will be  coming out shortly.  These sessions will be 4 classes and we may run a few sessions if there is a need.   

Cost: $100 for the 4 classes. This includes the lesson and use of the equipment.    Please note that these introductory classes will be on a dates when the shop itself is closed so entry will be  limited to athlete and one parent/guardian. We will not have space for more people.
