Understanding the importance of Long-Term Development (LTD) in coach education, Canadian sport organizations have been integrating LTD into NCCP for years. But in 2020, everything’s changing. Today’s realities, including the impact of COVID-19, have led to a re-think of how we deliver coach education, how we “re-open” sport, and what it means to coach in today’s world. How does Long-Term Development fit into this re-think? Are there new ways to integrate LTD into coach education and sport delivery? This panel discussion with coach education and sport organization leaders examines what’s new and what’s next.
Format: Panel discussion with four panelists and a moderator to lead the discussion.
Panellists: Peter Niedre, Director, Education Partnerships, CAC; John Lofranco, Coaching Education Manager, Athletics Canada; Kristin Noonan, Manager Coaching Services, Softball Canada; Matt Thomas, Manager of Coach Education, Alberta Soccer.
