Long Term Athlete Development

I'm heading up to Scotland in October to deliver an evening workshop exploring physical preparation for young athletes at Napier Univeristy.

I delivered a bunch of these workshops at the start of the year and I'm really looking forward to taking the session north of the border for the first time.

I've been looking at some of the latest research to add to the existing content and I thought it would be good to share a great 2-part paper that I recently read.

Anyone working with young athletes should be interested in long term athletic development (LTAD) and should take the time to read this 2-part paper.
