Program Lead

 

Meet Mickey.  Mickey has been a friend of Bridge II Sports since 2008.  A Vietnam Veteran, an extraordinary archery instructor, and an all-around good man.  He's been certified in just about everything archery related, and through those experiences he's been exposed to, and found solutions for, archers with varying levels of physical ability.

 

It wasn't hard to find a picture of Mickey, but it was hard to find a picture where he was looking at the camera.  In most photos you only see the side of his face, or the back of his head, because he's always leaning over, giving advice, and working with our athletes to help them succeed.  That's why we value Mickey, and we think you will too.

In addition to our outdoor range (i.e. a covered shooting platform with two targets each at 10 yards, 20 yards, and 50 yards), we also have three targets set up in our climate controlled warehouse.  So, programming will take place, regardless of weather, as long as at LEAST one athlete is registered.
