Canada LTAD
AANB Long Term Archer Development
Archers Association of New Brunswick (AANB) has developed a plan
to implement Archery Canada's Long Term Archer Development (LTAD)
model in New Brunswick. Along with implementing the model we also
designed a program to educate our coaches. That program is the
AANB Long Term Archer Development (AANB LTAD).
The following are the steps AANB followed to implement the AANB
LTAD Program
Step 1: Create a team to implement the program.
The team consists of the LTAD Coordinator, Provincial Coach,
and Equipment Technician.
Step 2: Present to AANB LTAD program to AANB Board of
Directors and receive approval.
Step 3: Implement the goals.
The following are goals of the AANB LTAD program and how the goals
are implemented.
- Goal 1: Educate the Archery Community on Archery Canada's
LTAD Model
" Introduce Archery Canada's LTAD model to the Board
of Directors and provide copies of the model to members.
" Hold AANB LTAD coaching clinic to educate coaches
and archers on LTAD Model in different parts of the province.
Held specific LTAD clinics to educate coaches on the finer
points of the Archery Canada's LTAD model. The clinic was
open to all members of AANB.
- Goal 2: Pass Down Coaching Techniques From National Level
To Club Level Coaches
" AANB LTAD clinics
An AANB LTAD Clinic is a coaching clinic where coaches
are taught coaching techniques learned from national level
coaches. These techniques are taught on the coaches' current
archers, benefiting both coach and archer. Coaches are also
taught about equipment and equipment maintenance by the
Equipment Technician.
" Support Coaches in professional development opportunities
through coach education and mentorship.
Work shops that AANB coaches have attended:
" Renaissance Canada 2009 and 2010 (Archery)
" CS4L LTAD Workshop (General)
" PetroCan Leadership Conference (General)
- Goal 3: Develop Archers in all Stages of Archery Canada's
LTAD Model.
