Easton JOAD Nationals / National Target Championships / JOAD Camps

The registration is now open for Easton JOAD Nationals / National Target Championships, which is at the end of June.

It is one of the seven national tournaments that account for national ranking.

If you are planning to compete and have not yet arranged transportation/hotels, you should hurry before plane ticket prices soar and hotel spaces run out.

It is the largest national outdoor competition of the year.

Also, for those of you who want to experience intense training, JOAD Camp is a great opportunity for you.

For four days, you will have the chance to train under an Elite coaching staff and to assimilate the NTS.

Finally, just a reminder for this Saturday to bring equipment that you would like to sell.

We will hold an equipment exchange/buy/sell.

Be sure to practice, especially since Cotton Boll is just around the corner! (whether you are competing, keep practicing!)

And even when you practice, make sure you practice properly because as Coach Eric often tells us, "Practice doesn't make perfect. PERFECT practice makes perfect."

See you this Saturday!
