  • Olympic Sports Coaching Education
    OLMYPIC SPORTS COACHING EDUCATION: AN INTERNATIONAL COACH’S PERSPECTIVE Cameron Kiosoglous, Ph.D.1 ABSTRACT: The profession of high performance sports coaching is a complex process focused on performance improvement with the goal of producing international sporting success. Rising demand for top-level coaches has been matched with the increasing amount of resources allocated to producing world- class performances. This includes creating and sustaining a culture of learning and competition. For a foreign coach, the culture of an adopted country can differ dramatically from that in their homeland. This discussion explores the challenges and opportunities an expatriate coach may experience in an effort to succeed in an adopted nation at the highest level of competition. Keywords: high performance coaching, coaching education, expatriate coaching The professionalization of sports coaching has evolved in recent years but hiring coaches dates back to the mid-19th century. The Yale Rowing team hired William Wood in 1864 as the first intercollegiate coach in the U.S. to help them beat its rival Harvard (Dealy, 1990). With the increases in professionalization of sport around the world, there are no signs of slowdown in the increase in resources allocated to sport at all levels (Hong & Zhouxiang, 2016). The following data illustrated the state of play at the Olympic level of competition after the 2016 Rio Olympic Games. For participation at the Olympics, since the 1970’s, the growth of Olympic Games has been on many levels. The total number of events increased from 198 in Montreal to 306 in Rio in 2016 and as a result, the total athletes have increased from 600 in 1976 (Montreal) to over 10500 in 2016 (Rio) (IOC, 2016).

  • Olympics Research Project
    Name __________________ Class __________________ Olympics Research Project The 2014 Winter Olympics will soon be upon us! The games will be held in Sochi, Russia, from February 7 to February 23, 2014. The Olympic motto is Citius-Altius-Fortius, which is Latin for “swifter, higher, stronger.” The motto has been with the Games since 1894. The city of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil has been selected to be the host city of the Olympic Summer Games in 2016. The Summer Olympics will open on August 5th and run through August 21st 2016. Current Olympic Winter Sports Ice Sports Bobsled Figure Skating (including Ice Dancing) Luge Speed Skating Skeleton Short Track Speed Skating Ice Hockey Curling Alpine, Skiing and Snowboarding Events Alpine Skiing Freestyle Skiing (Aerials, Moguls and Ski Cross) Snowboarding Nordic Events Biathlon (cross-country skiing and target shooting) Cross-Country Skiing Ski Jumping Nordic Combined (ski jumping and cross country skiing) Current Olympic Summer Sports Archery Field Hockey Swimming Athletics Football (Soccer) Sync. Swimming Badminton Gymnastics Table Tennis Baseball Handball Taekwondo Basketball Judo Tennis Boxing Modern Pentathlon Triathlon Canoeing Rowing Volleyball Cycling Rugby Beach Volleyball Diving Sailing Weightlifting Equestrian Shooting Wrestling Fencing Softball The Project Olympic sports and the people that compete in these games need to be athletically talented but also need to be hard working and determined. As the Olympics will soon be taking place, we will be doing a project in order to learn more about the various sports and the athletes who compete in them. Your task is to write a 2-4 page informational report on one of the Olympic sports (either winter or summer games are fine) including information about a competing team or athlete.

  • Using Field Based Data to Model Sprint Track Cycling Performance Hamish A
    Ferguson et al. Sports Medicine - Open (2021) 7:20 https://doi.org/10.1186/s40798-021-00310-0 REVIEW ARTICLE Open Access Using Field Based Data to Model Sprint Track Cycling Performance Hamish A. Ferguson1* , Chris Harnish2 and J. Geoffrey Chase1 Abstract Cycling performance models are used to study rider and sport characteristics to better understand performance determinants and optimise competition outcomes. Performance requirements cover the demands of competition a cyclist may encounter, whilst rider attributes are physical, technical and psychological characteristics contributing to performance. Several current models of endurance-cycling enhance understanding of performance in road cycling and track endurance, relying on a supply and demand perspective. However, they have yet to be developed for sprint-cycling, with current athlete preparation, instead relying on measures of peak-power, speed and strength to assess performance and guide training. Peak-power models do not adequately explain the demands of actual competition in events over 15-60 s, let alone, in World-Championship sprint cycling events comprising several rounds to medal finals. Whilst there are no descriptive studies of track-sprint cycling events, we present data from physiological interventions using track cycling and repeated sprint exercise research in multiple sports, to elucidate the demands of performance requiring several maximal sprints over a competition. This review will show physiological and power meter data, illustrating the role of all energy pathways in sprint performance. This understanding highlights the need to focus on the capacity required for a given race and over an event, and therefore the recovery needed for each subsequent race, within and between races, and how optimal pacing can be used to enhance performance.
