May 12, 2025 – This past weekend in Louisville, Kentucky, over 15,585 individual student archers gathered at the familiar Kentucky Exposition Center to compete in Bullseye and 3D archery, resulting in one of the largest archery tournaments in history! In addition to the thousands of student archers in attendance who advanced from state tournaments in 32 states, more than forty-five thousand friends, family, and volunteers were present to support these student athletes!
The three day tournament not only provided for fun and spirited archery competition for student archers across the Country, but random $500 bullseye scholarships were awarded to Eastern National competitors and selected students will be notified this coming week.
In addition to the Bullseye and NASP®/IBO 3D Challenge competition, The On Target for Life Awards (OTFLA), a program that recognizes students and adults who exhibit tremendous community and team service, courage to overcome challenges, and special academic achievements, were also awarded for their actions.
We will be sharing the 2025 winners in a release soon. OTFLA will be open for nominations on September 1, please visit: On Target for Life Awards
