THIRD EYE ARCHERY TRAINING SYSTEM AIMED AT INTERMEDIATES LAUNCHED

Kristina Dolgilevica, a level II archery coach and instructor at Archery Fit (and regular Bow International columnist) has opened a remote training programme specifically aimed at intermediate archers.

Many have noted the difficulty of improving intermediate archers, often because of a lack of dedicated individual coaching. If learning stops, so does the progress. It leads to loss of confidence, enjoyment and purpose, and for many, ends in quitting the sport altogether.

Structured one-to-one coaching is essential to help archers progress. In addition to building a good technical skillset, they must also learn about the physical and mental side of the sport to help improve overall performance and advance. The launch of this project coincides with the times when remote coaching is becoming a norm and is proving its effectiveness worldwide.

Dolgilevica has studied extensively in Korea and incorporates Korean form, discipline and teaching methods. The programme as launched asks archers to dedicate four weeks of commitment; while shooting is not required every day, archers are given many tasks on the way. At the core of each session are full-form video assessments, and the course is personalised to each archer.

The training programme is available in English or Russian to senior archers (18+), with a junior programme in development. Recurve, compound, barebow and traditional styles are assessed.
