<DIV><FONT face=Arial>that would really depend on a persons definition of "
special needs " are they physically restricted ?? </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>I taught a wheel chair bound young lady to shoot longbow,
something she had wanted to do her entire life, and had been repeatedly told it
was impossible.. ( by people that didn't posses the knowledge that I did
)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>adaptations can often be arranged , if the issue is known
in advance.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>are they mentally restricted?? </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>you almost have to go on a case by case and moment by

<DIV><FONT face=Arial>I have seen children go from listening / paying attention
, to drawing a bow and screaming at people down the firing line, with no cause

<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>a lot of the time , it may even boil down to " are there
enough marshals available, in order to place a marshal one on one with the
archers in question.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>for practices , it may require that special practices are
arranged , in order to get the special needs person comfortable with shooting,

<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>are they on medication that slows their thinking and

<DIV><FONT face=Arial>just like alcohol use prior to shooting is against the
rules, I also feel that if someone walks onto my range with dilated eyes and

<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>but this is just my opinion.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>in most cases you will need to check with the mic and the

<P class=MsoNormal>I agree that there are areas and groups that do pretty
good. One thing that I have noticed is that we have MANY MANY kids (under 11
or 12) but that we do not have as many that are older than that. I know our
son Baldo was pretty good archery and was shooting but once he hit about 14
the SCA was no longer "Cool" so he did not want to do it anymore:-( I think
this happens with many of the kids in the SCA. One thing that had been
discussed before and they recently setit up for IKAC and I believe we can now
make it an option on the RR is to have both children (10, 15, 20 yards with
timed at 10 yard) and a youth division that is 15, 20, 30 with a timed round
at 15 yards. This MIGHT help or it might now. If it is available for us to use
we should consider using it and making it available.<o:p></o:p></P>

<P class=MsoNormal>I may be getting ready to step in it, but I know several
baronies that have had a youth program for many years. Admittedly there are
rather few participants and I agree we can do more to recruit the
children. On the other hand we have quite a few wee folk participate in
archery at the events I frequent. I think local marshals are doing a pretty
good job though and I would like to give them props for all they are doing to
bring in new blood.<BR><BR>Cian<BR><BR><o:p></o:p></P></DIV>
