Coaching Masters Athletes Acknowledgements
COMMUNITY SPORT COMPETITION INSTRUCTION COACHING MASTERS ATHLETES ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS CONCEPT DESIGN Cyndie Flett MAIN WRITER Nigel Kemp ADVISORY GROUP Georgina Bellamy François Gravelle John Huntley Nigel Kemp Volker Nolte Sherry Richardson Brad Young EDITOR Louise Wood PRODUCTION Field Day Inc., Lucie LeBel, MATRA • gs Translation Services Inc. Coaching Association of Canada • Coaching Masters Athletes FOREWORD When I played competitive water polo, in the 1980s, there were few if any opportunities for continuing to compete past your mid-twenties. The same was true for many other sports, and masters competitors or participants were few and far between. But we’re all a few years older now, and many of us have stayed active. As a result, participation and competition by masters athletes has increased dramatically in recent years. Far from being a rarity, the masters athlete is today a common sight in many sports. National Masters and World Masters Championships are now the norm in almost every major sport, water polo included! Because significant participation in masters sport is so new, we are just starting to learn what masters athletes are physically capable of and what motivates them. Coaching masters athletes is therefore essentially a new frontier, and this booklet is the first contribution the Coaching Association of Canada (CAC) is making to that new frontier. Coaching masters athletes is an exciting opportunity for all coaches to have a positive impact on the lives of adults who want to lead a healthy and active lifestyle. It is also a wonderful opportunity for coaches to have a positive impact on society by encouraging more adults to be more active. -

Masters Newsletter – June 15, 2021
Masters Newsletter – June 15, 2021 Message from the Masters LDR Chair, Lloyd Hansen We are witnessing the rapid and much-anticipated return to road racing in the U.S. As COVID restrictions ease, successful in-person races have been held in many parts of the country, including the Gate River Run in Jacksonville, Florida, with over 8,000 runners, and the Publix Gasparilla Distance Race Classic, with a half marathon field of 4,000. Other prominent races have announced their return, including Grandma’s Marathon race weekend in Duluth, Minnesota with an expected 9,500 participants (June 17-June 19), the AJC Peachtree Road Race in Atlanta with over 30,000 participants (July 3-4), the Boston Marathon with a field of 20,000 (October 11), and the TCS New York City Marathon with a cap of 33,000 participants (November 7). We plan to be part of this resurgence with an aggressive schedule of Masters Long Distance Running and XC Championships. 2021 Masters LDR Schedule Includes Three Spectacular Races First, the USATF Masters 12k Championships which is part of the By Hook or By Crook 12k in Sandy Hook, New Jersey on September 19. The race is along the beach on a lightning-fast course. You can also combine the race with a visit to NYC, which is only an hour away by car or ferry. Second, the 5k Masters XC event at the famed Franklin Park course in Boston. Franklin Park has been the host to hundreds of high school and collegiate championships and has been a host to the World XC Championships. -
