USATF 2007 National Podium Education Project Dec 11-15
USATF presents the 2007 National Podium Education Project. This year’s project includes most track and field event areas. The NPEP will be held Dec. 11-15, 2007 at The Tuscany Resort and Casino in Las Vegas, and is broken into two sessions.
For 25 years the High Performance Division (HPD) Elite Athlete Sprint Seminar has been held, under the direction of Dr. Ralph Mann, to evaluate the top US sprinters. This science based program has attracted some of the best minds in the sport.
John Smith, Clyde Hart, and several other world class coaches of the top elite athletes will be holding their High Performance Division (HPD) Elite Athlete Seminars in conjunction with the NPEP. The HPD seminars are run to provide specific scientific information and analysis of our best athletes to ensure that the United States dominates the podium at the Olympics and World Championships.
The major reason why the large majority of the top US sprint athletes are coached by a handful of coaches is the expertise of the coaches and the quality of the information that is made available to them. The level of expertise can be seen by reviewing the list of the coaches that will be speaking to you at the Session. The quality of the information can be judged by examining the list of scientists that will be presenting.
More information can be found on the USATF web site, and on Compusport web site. The schedule can be found here.
Athletics Canada announces 2008 Olympic Games Qualifying Standards
June 1 2007, OTTAWA – Athletics Canada published today the draft standards for the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing, China. For the vast majority of events, the 2007 repeat performance qualifying period began today and will end on September 30th.
The 2008 qualifying period will begin on April 1st 2008 and will tentatively conclude with the Beijing Trials on July 6th 2008. A Top 12 performance during the 2007 qualifying period will heavily impact an athlete’s selection to the Olympic team.
Athletics Canada will review and finalize the standards as well as the final qualifying period following the 2007 World Championships. The A+ standard is based on statistical analysis of rankings, World Championships and Olympic Games of the past five years. The A+ standard represents a Top 12 ranked athlete in the world while the A and B standards, other than Road Racing events, are equivalent to the International Association of Athletics Federations A and B standards.
Road Racing standards are established equivalently with other event standards. A Road Racing performance must only be achieved once during the two-year qualifying window.
