Who are considered students in the context of archery?

In the context of archery, students are typically defined as those participants who are awaiting instruction. They are individuals who are present to learn how to shoot or improve their skills under the guidance of a coach or instructor. This role emphasizes the process of learning and absorbing information that can enhance their performance.

Participants actively shooting at the line are engaged in practice or competition rather than learning, while individuals coaching the archers are responsible for teaching rather than being in the student role themselves. Non-participants observing the event do not participate directly in the learning or shooting experience; they fall outside the scope of defined students, as they are not actively engaged in the educational aspect of archery. Thus, the most accurate description of students in this context is those waiting for instruction.
