Selected Universal Sport System GapsSelected Universal Sport System Gaps

• Adult training programmes are superimposed on young athletes

• Male programmes are superimposed on females

• Young developmental athletes under-train and over-compete

• Physical literacy not taught – only – only single sporting activities are taughtsingle sporting activities are taught


• The most knowledgeable coaches are coaching at elite level, lack of knowledgeable coaches at younger ages

• Parent's education is neglected with regards to long-term athlete development (nutrition, regeneration, maturation and psycho-social development, etc...)

• No systemNo system integration (schools, community and PSOs/NSO competitive stream)

Selected Universal Sport System Selected Universal Sport System GapsGaps


These Sound Familiar?These Sound Familiar?

• PE used as a reward for good classroom behavior

• Viewed as a “break” from classroom

• No physical homework to reinforce learning

• Little to no opportunities for practice

• Kids don't change into proper clothing

• Often barefoot or socks if no runners


These Sound Familiar?These Sound Familiar?

• Small window (30-45 min) to teach

• Equipment preparation and set up time

• Athletic season influences curriculum

• Weather--don't want to go outside

• Teachers don't feel “comfortable” in gym

• Equal opportunity for recreation and competition

• Athlete centred, coach driven and administration, sport science and sponsor supported

• 7 stage developmental framework

• Collaboration between all sectors involved

What is LTAD ? What is LTAD ?


Chronological age vs. Chronological age vs. biological age / developmental agebiological age / developmental age

• Training and competition is often based on chronological age

• Athletes can be 4 - 5 years apart by maturation levels

Is this evident in your situation?

Does it create a problem?

Importance of Sport Skills?


Traditional Model Good Games ModelLittle Ball to Player Contact – Little Action More Ball to Player Contact – More Action

Ball and Player out of range – Ball and Player in range at all times - Little Interest and Boredom More concentration – More Fun

More numbers – difficult decision making Less numbers – easier decision

leading to beehive football and hurling making and Better Team Play

Ratio 15 a side 1: 29 Ratio 7 a side 1:13

Bigger Space – Greater Scanning ability Less Space – Less scanning- Player needs to use it. Better Spatial Awareness

Turn more OFF than ON Turn more ON than OFF

National Sport Organization School ProgramsNational Sport Organization School Programs

• Winterball (Baseball)

• Mini Volleyball/Atomic Volleyball

• National Golf in School Program

• Little Rocks (Curling)

Any other NSO school program being used?

Are they useful?


By the time children reach their growth spurt By the time children reach their growth spurt they should have…they should have…

• Acquired fundamental movement skills through a wide range of games and activities

• Acquired fundamental sport skills by participating in a wide variety of sports

• The skills to move confidentially and participate in a wide range of sports and physical activities

If this happens children will have the base of skills they need to participate in any sport

or physical activity they chose!
