TAGS Philosophy
Embracing the Journey
An archer finds fulfillment in the process, not just the outcome. They embrace the challenges and growth along the way, making each step a rewarding experience. It's about enjoying the act of striving for mastery of the body and mind rather than focusing solely on the target.

Clarity and Focus
An archer sees beyond the target—they understand it and stay fully engaged in the present moment. With unwavering focus, they tune out distractions and self-doubt, honing in on their goal with clarity and purpose

Self-Discipline & Integrity
An archer creates their own set of values and codes to live by, rather than adhering to societal expectations. They hold themselves accountable with discipline and personal ethics, always staying true to their principles.

Balance and Authenticity
An archer remains calm under pressure, finding balance amidst stress. They stay grounded in authenticity, treating others with respect and integrity, understanding that gossip and negative behavior only disrupt their journey.

Why TAGS





For me TAGS is the building blocks for any avid archer in their journey to be the best they can be. TAGS prepares an archer mentally to challenge oneself, always building on the foundations in an organic manner. Also the satisfaction one gets when completing a TAGS grading is worthwhile to say the least.

Gilbert Schembri





The Grading System give me a clear goal to work towards. It's not just about improving my shooting skills but also about building discipline and focus. Archery is as much a mental challenge as a physical one and this system helps develop both.

TAGS at Malta Archery has truly elevated my archery skills. It sharpens my focus, control, and consistency, making every shot a lesson in discipline. More than just hitting the target, it deepens my connection between mind and body. The challenge is both rewarding and meditative, helping me grow with each session. Special thanks to Danny for his expert guidance and support.
