World Archery Africa (WAAf) has started two new archery development projects in Algeria in partnership with Fédération Algérienne de Tir Sportif (FATS), as part of its yearly development plan on the continent. Mr. Abderazak LAZREG, FATS’ president, officially announced the start of 2 concurrent trainings at the National Sports and Leisure Complex in Tikjda, Algeria: a level 1 national archery coaches training from 24 to 30 September 2023, and a National Judges Course from 25 to 28 September 2023. Both trainings are being held in partnership with WAAf and conducted under the supervision of the international expert and coach trainer Mr. Pascal Colmaire and the International judge, Dr. Ahmed Koura, respectively. In a short opening speech, Mr. LAZREG thanked WAAf for its support and commitment to help African Member Associations that are willing to develop archery in their respective countries and assured that FATS is willing to sustain this partnership with WAAf as he believes that training is a pillar of development.
By the end of the week (29 – 30 September) all the candidates: 20 coaches and 21 judges will have the opportunity to gain more practical experience by attending the 4th leg of the Algerian National championship which has already been registered on World Archery’s Wareos platform and will be held in Tikjda Sports and Leisure Complex, too.
