Shortcomings of Canadian Sport System Competition system interferes with athletic development - athletes over compete and under train - preparation geared to short term – “peaking by Friday” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kz8tzP3oeDg&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z8LX98hDMnM&feature=related
Shortcomings of Canadian Sport System Developmental levels where quality coaching most needed Fundamental movement and sport skills poorly taught Coaches unaware and neglect critical periods of accelerated adaptation – PHV, PSV
Shortcomings of Canadian Sport System No integration between school P.E., recreational/ community and elite competitive programs No integrated talent identification system Early specialization to attract and retain participants Education regarding LTAD lacking
Canadian Sport System Consequences http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cl7kOYU2WxY&NR=1 Lack of proper fitness Poor skill development Bad habits developed from over emphasis on winning Children not having fun
Canadian Sport System Consequences Athletes pulled in different directions by school, club and provincial/national teams Athletes fail to reach genetic potential and optimal performance levels Inconsistent international results due to lack of talent ID and developmental pathway
LTAD – Why? Declining international performances Difficulty in identifying and developing next generation of successful international athletes Participation in recreational sport and physical activity declining Physical Education programs in schools being marginalized
LTAD – What is it? Specific and well planned outline of training, competition and recovery • Ensure optimal development throughout athlete’s career Based on physical, emotional, mental and cognitive development of children with each stage reflecting a different point in athlete development
LTAD – What is it? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZSez5rKfHko Integrates elite, community, recreation and scholastic sport along with P.E. in schools Recognizes need to involve all Canadians and organizations Supports goals of Canadian Sport policy - enhanced participation - enhanced capacity - enhanced interaction - enhanced excellence
