The purpose of the Washington State Archery Association:

Is to foster, expand and perpetuate the practice of archery in cooperation with the National Associations, to encourage the use of the bow in hunting all legal game birds and animals; to cooperate with all organizations in the policy of conservation and the propagation of game and wildlife.

Archery, the sport for all ages, brings fun and challenge to all the members of your family. Often considered the Worlds' First Sport, archery offers diversity that is available in no other sport. Shooting traditional equipment that has changed little from the days of great Turkish Bowmen and the men of Sherwood, you'll enjoy the thrill and mystique of ancient times. Step into the future with archery equipment assembled using state of the art materials.

 Archery offers something for everyone including the person that shoots for fun in their back yard, to the challenge of competition or the heart pounding thrill of hunting with a bow and arrow.
