The CAP board of directors submitted a grant proposal to the Easton Sports Development Foundation requesting support for the World University Archery Team. It is with great pleasure to announce the full amount of the request, $21,000, was granted to help the WUAC team.

Easton Sports Development Foundation’s goal to provide support to the College Archery Program and colleges across the country is unprecedented for the College Archery Program. The grant will provide approximately 50% of the funding required to send the top collegiate athletes to compete in the World University Archery Championships in Chinese Taipei in July 2008.

Thank you Easton Sports Development Foundation!
