Details

Purpose:

CalNASP is an affiliate of the National Archery in the Schools Program (NASP™)—a non-profit, international style archery program dedicated to providing students in grades 4-12 the opportunity to learn and participate in target archery.
The California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) oversees the CalNASP program and trains teachers to use NASP certified equipment and lesson plans.

 

Description:

The CalNASP grant is awarded to 10 new schools each fiscal year. (July 1-June 30). The grant pays for a stater archery equipment kit so new schools can start the program in their PE classes. The kit includes: Twelve Genesis compound bows, five bulls-eye targets, one arrow-resistant net, one or two bow racks, five dozen arrows and an equipment maintenance kit. To be awarded the grant, schools cannot already be affiliated with NASP. They must fill out the grant application and submit a Grant Criterion. A Grant Criterion is a letter from the school's proposed Archery Instructor detailing how NASP will be integrated into their curriculum and the potential impact it will have on students. Grant applications and Criterion must be submitted by 6/30 each year. Grant awardees will be announced by 8/15, with equipment being purchased and distributed by 12/15. After grant awardees are announced, awarding schools must have all proposed NASP instructors complete NASP national training (provided for free up and down California). Once a school has a trained instructor and their equipment kit, the school can start teaching NASP curriculum.
