NURTURING EXCELLENCE FROM POOL TO PODIUM

SYNCHRO CANADA LTAD FRAMEWORK NURTURING EXCELLENCE FROM POOL TO PODIUM Preface Synchro Canada was first introduced to Shaping the Ideal NSO , a guide published by Sport for Life (S4L) in 2014. The guide recommended four steps for National Sport Organizations (NSOs) to follow as they integrate long -Term Athlete development (LTAD) into their core operations . The four steps are further broken down into 21 components and 24 actions, and Sport Canada has linked completion of these identified actions to NSO funding support. Diligently, Synchro Canada followed these recommendations and implemented a National LTAD Implementation Task Force, comprised of one LTAD representative from each province, to begin the implementation of the components and actions. In 2015, Synchro Canada initiated work on these components and actions by re-writing the existing Synchro Canada LTAD Framework, piloting the entry-level participant CANSwimSynchro program in 17 clubs across Canada, developing the L2T and T2T competitive training programs, and collaborating with PSO Members to produce phase 1 of PLAN 42, a Federal-Provincial-Territorial supported project on aligning the judge s skill assessment matrix with the athlete skill development matrix.

of Synchro Canada’s Long-Term Athlete Development Framework 2.0, which introduces the guiding principles for change that will be implemented by Synchro Canada over the next quadrennial and beyond (see Implementation Plan on page 57).
