Why LTAD?
LTAD Background - Key Messages:
• There was a need to rationalize the current
sports system. Before LTAD all sports did their
own thing
• Simple approach which allowed easy adaption
by individual sports.
• Enabled easy links back to sport in schools
• Evolution not revolution!
2011 World Archery Coaching Seminar
Focuses on Windows of
Trainability’
The success of any LTAD system relies upon
coaches (& teachers) who;
Understand children
Appreciate how a child’s overall development
influences participation and performance in
sport and physical activities
Can relate to, and communicate with,
children
It is vital that coaches are aware of the
so-called critical periods of “accelerated
adaptation” so that these windows of
opportunity are exploited to their full potential
