The NASP was founded in 2002 and has implemented a program of awards and recognition as a way to capture outstanding examples of participants of the program in 47 states and 11 countries. The in-school program is geared toward students in grades 4-12 and has the goal of improving student performance through the skills taught in archery. From the program's mission, characteristics such as, "focus, self-control, discipline, patience, and the life lessons required to be successful in the classroom and in life" can be found through archery. The program is inclusive of students from all backgrounds and brings them together as team.
