GETTING YOUTH ENGAGED IN THE SPORT
Welcome to the OAS Season!
OAS utilizes a unique format modeled after the Olympic Games for State and National Championship competitions that gets both archers and spectators excited about the sport. Teams ready for a greater challenge will relish the opportunity to compete against other archers in a format specifically designed to challenge archers of all competencies and prepare them for recreational shooting, the Collegiate archery format, and next step programs and competitions. These games will draw you to the edge of your seat as archers go arrow for arrow in individual and team match play.
Through these opportunities, we hope to see youth engaged in the sport, challenging themselves on an individual level, and developing strong bonds with their team and archery community. For more information, please read the Program Handbook and Contact Us.

Interscholastic games are an excellent way to add more exciting activity to your archery program, connect and form community with other programs nearby, and prepare your archers for OAS Championship competitions! A game traditionally features Olympic Round matches and Team Round matches so archers can practice competing against others in their division outside of those on their own team.
-
The Conference Championship is an optional regional competition that any OAS Conference can independently organize and host to prepare their archers for the State and National Championship. The Conference Championship traditionally features a 36-arrow Ranking Round, Olympic Rounds, and Team Rounds.

The State Championship is a well-rounded, one-day competition open to all participating OAS schools and archers. All archers participate in a Ranking Round offered per division (Middle/High School, Junior Varsity/Varsity, Girls/Boys).

The National Championship is a riveting one-day competition open to all participating OAS Schools and archers to rank nationally with live scoring in a 36-arrow Ranking Round!
