  • Chasing the Dream: Canadian Track and Field Student-Athlete Migration to the NCAA Division I
    Chasing the Dream: Canadian Track and Field Student-Athlete Migration to the NCAA Division I by Sarah Boyle A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Science Department of Exercise Sciences University of Toronto © Copyright by Sarah Boyle 2017 Chasing the Dream: Canadian Track and Field Student-Athlete Migration to the NCAA Division I Sarah Boyle Master of Science Department of Exercise Sciences University of Toronto 2017 Abstract While there is interest in understanding the motivations and experiences of student-athletes who migrate to the NCAA, there is a lack of data quantifying migration to the NCAA. Specifically, in the case of track and field, the last quantitative effort to identify Canadian student-athlete migration to the NCAA was published in the early 1990’s by John Bale. Using descriptive research methods, this thesis defines the population of Canadian track and field student-athletes who migrated to the NCAA DI between the 2005/06 and 2012/13 academic years. Results indicate that during this eight year period, 562 Canadian student-athletes migrated to the NCAA Division I to participate in track and field. Canadian track and field student-athletes who migrate to the NCAA Division I comprise more than half of the athletes competing internationally for the Canadian National Track and Field Team. ii Acknowledgments This project would not have been completed if it were not for the support of my supervisors, Peter Donnelly and Michael Atkinson. With a three-year hiatus to complete my Juris Doctorate at Osgoode Hall Law School, I have been afforded time to reflect on this research and appreciate the fruits of collecting systemic research data.

    SPORT DISPUTE RESOLUTION CENTRE OF CANADA (SDRCC) CENTRE DE RÈGLEMENT DES DIFFÉRENDS SPORTIFS DU CANADA (CRDSC) NO: SDRCC 16‐0297 OLIVIA MEW (CLAIMANT) AND SAIL CANADA (RESPONDENT) DECISION Appearances: Jordan Goldblatt On behalf of the Claimant Olivia Mew Robert Mew Adam Klevinas On behalf of the Respondent Todd Irving (President) Phil Gow (Chair, Athlete Development Committee) Ken Dool (High Performance Coach) 1. On June 17, 2016, I was appointed by the SDRCC as an Arbitrator under section 6.8 of the Canadian Sport Dispute Resolution Code (the “Code”) to hear Olivia Mew’s request for arbitration (the “appeal”) of Sail Canada’s decision not to select her to the 2016 Canadian Olympic Sailing Team. 2. This appeal was conducted on an urgent basis by telephone conference call on June 20, 2016, with a decision to be issued by June 21, 2016, as June 22, 2016 was the last date Sail Canada had to advise World Sailing whether it would accept or turn down the additional quota spot offered for the 2016 Olympics. 3. I issued my decision to deny Ms. Mew’s appeal on June 21, 2016, with reasons to follow. These are my written reasons. 4. Although I have carefully considered all of the evidence, I will refer only briefly to much of it in this decision. BACKGROUND 5. Ms. Mew is a competitive RS:X wind‐surfer and a member of Sail Canada National Sailing Team – Development Team. 6. Sail Canada is the national governing body for the sport of sailing. Designated by the Government of Canada as a National Sport Organization representing the sport of sailing, it represents all participants, including recreational sailors and high performance athletes, at club, provincial, national and international levels.
