LONG TERM ATHLETE DEVELOPMENT
The Long-Term Athlete Development (LTAD) model is a framework that guides athletes through a structured pathway from their first introduction to sport all the way through to elite performance or lifelong active participation. It ensures that athletes receive the right training and experiences at the right stage of their development, with a focus on building a love of sport, developing fundamental skills, and supporting the whole athlete — physically, mentally, and emotionally.
