Execution of the shot – a workshop for coaches
Delivered by Lloyd Brown, Three-Time Olympic Team Coach
Sunday 5 November 2023 9.30am – 3.30pm
Strode College Sports Centre, Strode College, Church Rd, Street BA16 0AB
The final execution of the shot determines where the arrow will land. The rest of the shot process is preparation for that final element.
In this one day workshop Lloyd Brown will explore, demonstrate and analyse shot execution.
Bring your warm up bands, and shooting equipment because you will practise it, as well as develop the skills to coach it in your archers.
