X10 Academy is the premier archery education center in the Houston Area.  Established in 2014, we have developed archers from true beginners to National and State Champions, USA Archery Team Members (USAT), and USA Archery Regional Elite Development Team Members.  When students choose X10, they get more than weekly lessons; they study under Texas’s most experienced instructors.  X10’s Team dedicates itself to helping students achieve greatness.

The X10 Academy Team

The X10 Team is more than Coaches; they are competitors themselves. The X10 Academy Team consists of Houston’s only USA Archery Level 4 NTS Coaches. The Academy is home to Former Team USA Members, Collegiate All American Athletes, State Record Holders, National, and State Champions, International, National, and State Medalists.

The X10 Academy is more than an archery range or a training program; X10 is a community.  At X10, each coach is committed to developing elite athletes and well-rounded humans. X10 archers learn more than how to shoot their bows. They will learn time management, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills.
