  • Annual Report 2018
    MESSAG E FROM THE PRESIDENT In 2018, the collaborative work of all of us in the sport system showcased Team Canada as a positive force in this country, both on and off the field of play. In February, Canada’s best-ever Olympic Winter Games performance with a record 29 medals won, 30 Canadian best-ever finishes, and 40 top-five finishes, showed us what it means to ‘Be Olympic’. These record-setting results are a testament to the tireless work of all in the community over the past year. By collaborating closely to improve athlete, coaching, and organizational infrastructure across the sport network, we are consistent in our focus on delivering a promising future for Canadian sport. Our corporate partners are also behind us. Corporate Canada has fueled the amplification of our work through their investments and by joining forces with our talented Marketing Team to develop class-leading programs to elevate the sport system in the consciousness of all Canadians. Support for grassroots and next generation developmental initiatives, like RBC Training Ground, the Petro-Canada Fueling Athlete & Coaching Excellence (FACE) Program and Game Plan powered by Deloitte are supporting our Canadian athletes in innovative ways throughout their careers. As inspired as we all are by the success of our teams this past year including the medals won in 2018, I believe we are equally inspired by how Canada has embraced the values for which we all stand. Our national sport system reflects Canada’s commitment to the values of integrity, inclusion and equality. In 2018, we were proud to host numerous events that celebrated these values, from hosting the first-ever integration of Pride House International into a National Olympic House in PyeongChang, to supporting the first WADA Athletes Forum in Calgary, to Christine Girard’s medal re-allocation ceremony in Ottawa in December celebrating victory through clean sport, our efforts reflected the COC’s and our sport system’s devotion to living our values.

  • 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.

  • 2019 Canada Winter Games Archery Technical Package
    2019 Canada Winter Games Archery Technical Package Technical Packages are a critical part of the Canada Games. They guide the selection of athletes by prescribing the age and eligibility requirements, assist the organizing committees by detailing tournament formats and scoring procedures, assist Chefs de Mission in verifying eligibility, help with budgeting by describing the number of participants permitted, advance coaching certification by stating minimum requirements and generally contribute to athlete development by identifying each National Sport Organization’s (NSO) version of athletes in the “training to compete” phase of its Long Term Athlete Development Model (LTAD), or other suitable phase of the model as justified by the NSO, discussed with the LTAD expert group, and approved by the Canada Games Council (CGC) Sport Committee. Every Games' coach, manager, Sport Chairperson and Mission staff has an obligation to read and understand every aspect of the Technical Package. Failure to do so could cost an athlete his or her eligibility for the Games or could affect final standings or the conduct of the competition. If someone does not understand an aspect of a Technical Package, he or she is to seek clarification from the CGC Sport Committee through his or her Chef de Mission or NSO. Technical Packages are developed 36 to 24 months prior to Games primarily by NSOs, following principles outlined in this document, guidelines and requirements of the CGC. As the overall governing body of the Games, the CGC has the ultimate authority over Technical Packages, but this authority is exercised only with the knowledge and understanding of the concerned NSO.
