Marshal in Training Guidelines - excerpted from the Archery Marshals Handbook

The first thing that a prospective Marshal in Training should do is contact the Regional Archery Marshal.  You may get a form from the Regional Marshal or download a form from the web site. Below are the areas in which you are expected to train to become a fully-warranted marshal. Once training is complete and all signatures are filled out, submit the form to the Regional Marshal. The Regional Marshal shall then administer final approval and forward the form to the Deputy Earl Marshal for Archery. The initial warrant shall come from the DEM for Archery. After that, warrants are maintained through the Marshal Database.
