Africa Genesis Archery South Africa NPC (AGA-SA) was previously known as The National
Archery in the Schools Programme-SA NPC (NASP®-SA). AGA-SA is affiliated to the international
body governing the sport in southern Africa namely The Africa Genesis Archery Federation or
AGAF.

The NASP®-SA programme used to focus on presenting the NASP® style archery to school
attending learners from Grade 4 to 12. Due to the popularity of the NASP® style archery the
programme was extended to also include adult archers. This led to the establishment of the
Adult Archery Generation (AAG) to accommodate senior archers who wishes to enjoy the
NASP® style of archery. AGA-SA also extended the sport to include Grade 2 and 3 learners in a
separate category namely the Cubs.

The former NASP®-SA could not adhere to the requirements of the governing body in the USA
namely NASP® Inc's, that only schools presenting NASP® as part of their in-school curriculum
and present NASP® as a subject for a minimum of 10 hours per annum to all learners during the
school period are allowed to use the name National Archery in the Schools Programme. Therefor
the previous NASP®-SA was requested to change our name. Although our name changed to
Africa Genesis Archery South Africa, we still present the same NASP® style archery. NASP® Inc
also confirmed their commitment to keep supporting AGA-SA the way they did in the past. The
only change is the name.

VISION
