SPONSOR A YOUTH
Give a young archer an opportunity to be part of SCWA, even if their parent or guardian isn't a club member.
The Youth Sponsor Membership allows a young person to become an SCWA member when their parent or guardian does not wish to become a member themselves. A current SCWA member can sponsor a youth member and accept responsibility for ensuring the youth member follows club rules and policies.
There is no additional membership fee for the youth member.
-
A current SCWA member serves as the sponsor. The sponsor agrees to accept responsibility for the youth member while they are on club property and to help ensure they understand and follow SCWA's rules, policies and safety requirements.
The youth member has their own membership. The youth is not added to the sponsor's membership.
Youth members have their own club work requirements. Required work hours must be completed to maintain an active membership.
Youth members under age 16 do not receive key privileges.
The sponsor's membership is not affected if the youth member's membership is terminated for failing to follow club rules or requirements.

Youth Sponsor Members are expected to follow all SCWA rules and policies and complete the required club work hours.
If the required work hours are not completed during the calendar year, the youth member must pay for a regular membership to maintain their membership with SCWA.

A Youth Sponsor Member must transition to a regular membership when they reach age 18.
If the member is 18 and still attending high school, a regular membership will be required the year following their high school graduation.
Our Youth Sponsor Membership is a great way for young archers to become involved in SCWA, develop their skills and become part of our archery community, even when their parents or guardians aren't club members.
