Mack’s Archery Hosts TN S3DA Indoor Regional

Williamsburg, KY – Mack’s Archery held the fifth Tennessee S3DA Indoor Regional at the Carroll County Civic Center in Huntingdon, Tennessee. Spectators and archers filled the building from the early morning hours till late in the afternoon. One-hundred and thirty archers from fifteen teams competed for their chance to be crowned an Indoor Regional Champion and qualify for the upcoming Indoor State Championship.

“I would like to thank everyone from Mack’s Archery for hosting an outstanding event. I also want to thank all the volunteers who worked admissions, concessions, and those who helped with scorekeeping for the Jr. Eagle/Eagle classes. Without their help, these events could not happen. It’s hard to believe we have already held five of the six scheduled indoor regionals for the 2023 competition season. Seeing these kids develop not only their skill level in archery, but also develop relationships with one another never gets old,” stated TN S3DA State Coordinator, Robert Carter.

Casey Moore, Head Coach of Mack’s Archery said, “This past weekend was a success. We had a great bunch of volunteers from our clubs and other clubs that all pitched in so we could host 130 kids. The smiling faces make it all worthwhile.”
