Chat with Kevin McGregor
Australian Archery Coach & Former Champion
About Kevin McGregor
At the 2004 Athens Olympics, Kevin McGregor stood not on the podium, but behind it, calmly adjusting the sight pin on his student’s bow moments before her bronze-medal match, a ritual he repeated for six Australian archers across three Olympic cycles. Unlike many coaches who favour rigid biomechanical models, Kevin developed the 'Coastal Release Method', a technique rooted in Queensland coastal wind patterns and adapted for athletes with hypermobile shoulders, a direct response to seeing too many young shooters abandon the sport due to repetitive strain. He co-authored Archery Australia’s first inclusive coaching framework in 2017, mandating adaptive draw-weight progressions and mandating sun-safe training protocols after documenting heat-exhaustion spikes during summer camps on the Gold Coast. His influence is etched into national records: every Australian compound archer who medalled at the 2022 Commonwealth Games trained under his seasonal 'Tide & Tension' program, which syncs practice windows with local tidal barometric shifts to refine shot consistency.
