QAA is an archery club for beginning and experienced youth recurve archers. The club was founded over 15 years ago by Ralph Miles for Junior Olympic Archery Development (JOAD).

The club meets on Saturday mornings from 9-11 a.m. The indoor season lasts from the middle of September to the beginning of April and the meeting place is the Bull Run Shooting Center archery range. The outdoor season lasts from the middle of April to the end of July and the meeting place is the Arlington/Fairfax Izaak Walton League. Membership in the IWLA is recommended for the youth division and mandatory for adult members who wish to participate in the outdoor season.

No experience is necessary. Queen Ann Archers has several USA Archery certified Basic, Intermediate and Community coaches. Equipment is offered during the indoor season for a small ($2/session) rental fee. Range fees are $5/session. The cost to join the club is $30/year for and individual or $50/year for a family.
