On-Line Parent Waiver: Parents need to fill out and submit an on-line waiver before their archer can compete in this tournament. Deadline will be announced when known. 

Please use the EXACT naming convention for your team as follows:

Argyle High School

Argyle Middle School

Argyle Hilltop Elementary

Argyle West Elementary

Argyle South Elementary

Argyle JRE Elementary

and EXACT spelling of your archer's name as listed in NASP.  

Important: Submissions are tracked by name and school and exact spelling makes it possible to confirm your entry.  There are several schools that go by AHS or HE in the state of Texas and we need the correct name to confirm waiver complete.

Please follow this link to find the waiver:   https://form.jotform.com/213424264780050

Thank you for using correct school name. 

We will post the most recent report of completed waivers at bottom of this page.

Bus Transportation:  Argyle ISD has requested bus transportation.  Please do not delay in signing up so we can get a good head count to determine bus size. Please visit this link to reserve your seat and include archer's first and last name:

Please arrive no later than TBD AM. The bus will leave NO LATER THAN TBD AM from the Sixth Grade Center (in front of Argyle Archery Arena) to Belton, TX. The bus will not be able to wait for late arrivals as we are on track to make flight times for some of the riders. Being late jeopardizes someone else's ability to compete and we will not let that happen.

The bus will NOT be stopping for food on the way down, so each rider will need to bring their own food/drink for the trip down. Riders also allowed to bring electronics, backpack, blanket, and money for concessions. Riders should be prepared to provide their own food and drink for the entire day.  The bus should be able to depart Belton, TX for the return trip around TBD PM.   The bus should be arriving back at the Argyle Archery Arena NLT 7:00 PM, possibly sooner. We will post updates to arrival time via TeamSnap.

Check-in:  After admission into the Expo Exhibition Hall building, look for the ARGYLE ARCHERY banner.  This will be our team headquarters and our mustering spot for each flight, 45 min prior to flight times.  TX NASP has sent a map attached below this section.

Uniform: We would like all archers to wear a pair of black pants (blue is acceptable) and a pair of gym shoes with your team jersey. (No Crocs or open toed shoes, no shorts or gym clothes.)

Equipment: Whether you are driving or riding the bus, your archer is responsible for the arrival of their equipment. Equipment includes a case, bow and at least 6 arrows. Back up arrows of a different color and arrow rests are not a bad idea.   

On-Site Warm Up:  A Practice Range may be available as in years past.  They will likely be set at 15 meters (bullseye target) in the Exposition Building and cost $1.00 for 5 arrows.  They will be arena arrows (not perfect) and designed to allow you to release a few arrows (and stress) prior to shooting. Remind archers that arrows are not perfect and to not allow this practice to alter any aim spots or positive spirit going into tournament.

School Attendance: This is an AISD approved absence/event and muster will be taken and attendance turned into the schools.  Please find your coach as soon as possible after arriving.

Spectator Attendance: There is no fee for parking, however, the entry fee for the Texas NASP State Tournament and 3D Challenge is $5.00 per person per day.  There are no entry fees for Official Team coaches and everyone 18 years of age and younger.  Entry fee paid at one building gains you access to all buildings that day. 

There is limited bleacher seating in main Exhibition Hall and personal folding chairs are allowed.  Arenas have stadium seating. All seating is a fair distance and hard to see arrows from, so binoculars aren't a bad idea if so inclined.

Team Pictures:  Plan on mustering 45 min prior to flight times and taking a school team picture 30 minutes prior to flight times.  LOCATION for muster and any last-minute changes will be announced via TeamSnap.   

Concessions:   There will be concessions in both the Exposition and Equine bldgs.
