Level 2 Instructor Practical Course with Scouting USA Merit Badge Counselor skills as well

LHC USA Archery Level II Instructor Course

**** Cut off Date for Registration will be May 4

This Level II course is appropriate for Scouters wanting to be BSA Camp Shooting Sports Directors, to work with USA Archery JOAD youth, or those seeking to become an USA Archery Instructor Trainer. This course does not allow the participant to sanction and host a Level I or Level II Practical. It does allow the person to register and complete the Instructor Trainer course for that purpose. Participants will be expected to have previously completed the Level I Certification and have archery experience.

The Course will start at 8:00 am at Sid Richardson Scout Ranch. The Level I Practical must be covered and will take 4.5 hours or more. We will break for lunch, and then begin the 4 hour plus Level II Practical. It will be a long day on the Archery Range.

First, the participant must have previously completed the USA Archery Level I certification (or have extensive archery experience with permission).

Second, the participant must register with USA Archery to take the Level II ON-LINE class. NOTE!! To register for this class, the participant must complete the U.S. Center for SafeSport training (their form of YPT), have completed an USA Archery Background Screen, and be a current USA Archery or National Field Archery Association member. Then the participant may register and completes the Level II (TWO) ON-LINE class. This takes approximately 4 hours and has an on-line exam. Cost is $50 payable to USA Archery.

Once the participant has completed the on-line Level II ON-LINE class, they must register on-line (USA Archery web site) for a Level II (TWO) Practical Course. The Practical Course involves applying what has been learned in the on-line class on a range. Select the Level II Practical class at SR2 on May 14th.  

Third, participants must also register for the LHC Level II (TWO) Practical class on the LHC training calendar registration page. The cost is $40. The May 14th Practical Class will be conducted at the Sid Richardson Scout Ranch. The class will start at 8:00 am at the Archery Range. Level II participants must go through the Level I Practical class which is a busy, hands-on 4.5 hours plus. We will break for a short lunch and continue with the Level II Practical class (four hours plus). There will be a brief review of BSA Shooting Sports policy and LHC Archery Policy. This will be a long day on the Archery Range.
