The Archery Parent Podcast
Hello Archery Family! Welcome to the Archery Parent Podcast! The Archery Parent Podcast - What Parents Need to Know to Best Support their Archery - is a Survival Guide for family and friends. We will take you from the Beginner Archer, through competition, and into High-Performance. But, don't worry, this podcast has nothing to do with How to Shoot. We're leaving that up to your Archer. We will talk about what you, as an Archery Parent, are responsible for and need to know: *Indoor to outdoor Archery and the differences *The nuances of the Canadian Archery community *How to Find a Coach *Crossing the Canada/US border with Archery equipment *Costs and travel *Reviews of products that will make your life easier *Where to Shop *The importance of creating a community *Nutrition and General Health *Getting ready for your first outdoor tournament *How to get involved *What to say and what not to say to your Archer *The future of Archery in Canada *Interviews with special guests from Canada, the USA, and abroad *And so much more!
