Result: There was significant intervention effect on hand-eye coordination of the intervention group (p< 0.05). The reaction time of intervention group showed higher improvement compared to the control group, however, the intervention effect was not statistically significant (p>0.05). Conclusion: Archery trainingsignificantly improvedthe hand-eye coordination within 4 weeks. Keywords: Traditional archery; Reaction time; Ruler drop test; Hand-eye coordination, Wall toss test.
