Hi Archers, I want all the competing and non-competing to be present tomorrow. I will be going through the POLITE format and detailing of the competition. I will only be at the field after 3pm as Ill be having a Uni workshop from morning. Archers, just to let you know, this year's POLITE will probably the most important one as compared with our previous 4 POLITES. If we win this year, we get to keep the trophy, FOREVER.  We can only do so if we win for  5 years straight.  Lets not waste the efforts of our predecessors and give it our all!! HWAITING!! Regards, Zulhilmi Ariff President
Hi Archers, Congrats for giving your best in today's Beep Test. Let this be a gauge of your current fitness (and perseverance). However, I am not used with someone calling our club's fitness 'average'. I believe, we as NP Archers are much more capable than being called that. We are going to find a way to increase our overall fitness levels without much interference to our shooting :) On a side note, I am aware that some of the juniors are keeping their bows in school. I STRONGLY  urge all of you especially those competing in POLITE  to bring their bows home and do some bow training. Never underestimate bow training as it can improve your shooting and score too. If you feel your poundage is easy to hold, then hold it there for 10 sets of 1min or 30secs? and archers, if you have any feedback at all regarding the training or other matters, feel free to voice it out or email us cca_archery@connect.np.edu.sg or me zulhilmi_b_ariff@hotmail.com we are the best, so let
All Committee members, There will be a short meeting tomorrow after the 'Beep' Test. It will be regarding our next steps towards and after POLITE. I hope to cover certain issues before we meet again for our next official meeting since it has been awhile since we held one. No minutes required* And Hweeping, get the amount ready by tomorrow, thank you. See You all tomorrow. good luck for the 'test'! Regards, Zulhilmi Ariff President
Dear archers, If you're an Ngee ann archer, please read this post carefully. I do not repeat this over and over again. Okay, jokes aside please! 1) I don't care whether coach is around or not, you have to come down for training on every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. Try to plan your outing/gathering/project/homework/etc aside. If you really have difficulties and really have to leave early do let Jun Xiong (Me)/ Quan Jie know IN ADVANCE! 2) No junior is allowed to shoot without the companion of any senior on the field . Junior who goes against this will be severely punished. If you really want to shoot during your "free period", let Quan Jie or Guo feng know (best if you can let them know in advance) Please get this point very clearly, i am not trying to stop anyone from shooting. This is the rule by SDAR and we do not hope to see Ms June giving anymore warnings. 3) Only proper attires are allowed on the field, i don't have to elaborate much o
Dear archers, Those archers that are going for PO-LITE, you all will have to take a beep test and pass in order to represent Ngee Ann to shoot in PO-LITE. Miss.June will be conducting the beep test, so we will meet at kismis basketball court at 7PM on monday(18/7/11). If you injury yourself or can't take the beep test, you will have to produce a letter from doctor and show it to Miss.June. That all. Regards, QuanJie
Hi archers, I hope you all have enjoy the training camp. Please take note that this coming week will be sport fiesta, and our CCA have been selected to be in it. We will have a try out session for those people who are interested in Archery. The date of our try out sessions are Tuesday(12/7/11) and next Tuesday(19/7/11). Its during our training days, so some of the archers will help out and some will continue to train. I want all the junior who have loan wooden bow from the club to come down to the field by 430pm. If your lesson end by 5pm or later do inform me about it. That would be all, rest well and see you all on Tuesday. Regards, QuanJie
Hi Archers, I hope all of you have benefited from the training camp. If you have muscles cramps, its perfectly fine :) Just give it a few days and do some stretching and it'll be fine. On a lighter note, I can see that all of the juniors are improving in your shooting. Do not be easily bothered or worried about the problems you are facing now. All of the seniors have been through and overcame them. You shall too. Keep the spirit of the training camp going on even during normal training days. You know the standard that is required to win and the spirit to get you there. So train hard yeah! Regards, Zulhilmi Ariff President

UPDATED Dear Archers, The time has come to pay our semester fees. What is it you ask? The semester fees are essential funds that NP Archery requires to upkeep its equipments such as the target boards, wooden bows, platinum arrows, miscellaneous tools (screwdriver, jig) and lots more. You might have noticed that our boards are always on the brink of falling apart . So these fees are VERY important to buy or maintain those boards to facilitate in our training. Those of you who are currently borrowing the club's equipment, the price of the semester fees is a small sum compared to the actual price of the whole set of equipment you are using now. For those of you who are using their own equipments, the fees would GREATLY assist you in your training as mentioned above. The semester fees: Members: $25 I will give you guys up till this Sunday, 10 July 2011 to pass to Hwee Ping the semester fees. For the training camp, i want EVERYONE to bring two 500ml water bottles

Dear Archers, As seen in the images above, our dear vice-president seem to be way over his head. He compared his grouping with IM DONG HYUN (btw for anyone who don't know who that is, he is rank maybe first or second in the FITA ranking in the world) and he stated that their grouping are about the same. For the last image, he went to shit so that was for the fun of it. Okay, an important lesson here: 1) Confidence is important, even though I don't have much myself but lets compare your vice-president score with mine and you will see that it is important. (Over-confidence is good too just don't show to in front of people. I mean it is better to have over-whelming amount of confidence than to have none at all) Well have fun shooting.
Hi Archers, I just want to share this video with y'all. Just goes to show, stuff do happens to the best at times. So train hard, prepare yourself mentally! Take this as a lesson. Regards, Zulhilmi Ariff President

Hi Archers, Here is the indemnity form that you must print out and hand it in to us by TUESDAY, 5th July2011. If you dont hand it in on time, you wont be able to stay in the loft. For those of you who were not present during Saturday's training yesterday, I would like to see all of you during the training camp. During the camp, we will be teaching all of you as much as possible on how to prepare for the upcoming competition. If possible, we would like to teach you about other technical stuff such as making a nocking point (if there is time). This camp would probably be a gauge for you to see your level of skill as compared with other competitors. I will not tolerate any lame excuses for not coming. And some advice, if anyone of you are experiencing some muscle cramps after training, I strongly recommend that you do some stretching until the next training. It'll help to loosen your muscles. see you next friday! Regards, Zulhilmi Ariff President
