Team

Cal Archery team is a group of archers passionate about representing Cal at a competition level, from local to national and even international! Every year, we travel across the country to participate in competitions like California State Indoor, National Indoor, National Outdoor, etc. Not only are competitions helpful in training archers become better competitors, they are also fun!

We welcome all levels of archers to competitions, but by making team, you have access to team practices on Saturdays, 9 am – 1 pm. Team practices are a great time to train yourself to be ready for competition. Along with the help of the captains and more experienced members, our wonderful coaches are ready to help with techniques, equipment, drills, training, etc. Moreover, you have access to tools and equipment like high-speed cameras to help you with your training.

Additionally, after joining team you will start being held accountable for attendance at team practice, helping at beginner sessions, teaching at ASCENT, working Golden Bear Open and other club events throughout both semesters.
