Due to the many Covid 19 related issues affecting schools across our nation, the National Archery in the Schools Program made the difficult decision to replace its popular in-person NASP Western and Eastern National Tournaments in 2021 with a combined virtual competition for all NASP archers.
NASP believed that the virtual competition would allow archers who had long been sidelined with the chance to safely compete in their home location at a time when so many of their previous events were cancelled or negatively impacted due to the effects of the pandemic.
As the competition window came to a close, a record 15,683 archers from 1,053 schools in 42 states competed in the virtual bullseye competition. The newest addition to the NASP competitions; the NASP IBO 3D challenge also experienced great participation with 4,015 archers from 326 schools in 33 states competed in the virtual 3D competition.
