It means that the same coach has the same athletes from Introductory level to the highest desired and possible level. Usually, it takes 5-14 years to prepare a high-performance level athlete. It depends on the child’s ability, parents commitment and the coach’s program. Yes, we are right on the coach’s program because every coach implements his/her own program and develops workouts for each practice.
For example, our coach Dmitriy had a group of 6-11 year old kids and trained them until their highest levels such as Senior Nationals and/or International. This is why we said that he prepared athletes for Senior Nationals, for instance. In most cases swimmers are transferred from one group to another and change coaches. Usually it negatively impacts on kids’ performance and life in general because they should follow a new coach’s instruction. It is great if the athlete is happy with a new coach. What about if the child is unhappy? This is a common issue. There are only couple resolutions in this situation:
- Stay in this group and keep suffering OR
- Change the club
We strongly believe in a long-term partnership of the same coach and athlete for successful outcomes. A successfully implemented long term athlete development strategy will deliver athletes to the National team with greater potential for improvement at an age where optimal performance is possible. We offer the best program with the best Canadian coaches. Your child will be with the same great coach from Introductory level to the moment when you decide to move. No hassle. No stress. No frustration. No needs to change the coach or club anymore. You decide what is the best for your child.
