  • Scottish Disability Sport - the First Fifty Years Richard Brickley MBE Foreword
    Scottish Disability Sport - The First Fifty Years Richard Brickley MBE Foreword I was delighted to be asked by Chief Executive Gavin Macleod to record the first fifty years of Scottish Disability Sport, to mark the occasion of the 50th Anniversary of the Association. Initially the project was intended to be small but the more I researched, the more it brought back memories of great athletes, superb volunteers and great times. I became determined to try and do justice to as many as those great people as possible. I am certain I shall have forgotten key people in the eyes of others and if so I apologise profusely. For almost four decades SDS has been for me a way of life. The volunteers I have had the pleasure of working with for almost three decades are those I remember with great fondness, particularly during the early years. I applaud the many athletes who contributed to the rich history and success of SDS over fifty years. Outstanding volunteers like Bob Mitchell, Mary Urquhart, David Thomson, Jean Stone, Chris Cohen and Colin Rains helped to develop and sustain my passion for disability sport. I have been privileged to work with exceptional professionals like Ken Hutchison, Derek Casey, Liz Dendy, Paul Bush, Bob Price, Louise Martin, Sheila Dobie, Fiona Reid, Eddie McConnell, Gavin MacLeod, Mary Alison, Heather Lowden, Lawrie Randak, Tracey McCillen, Archie Cameron and many others whose commitment to inclusive sport has been obvious and long lasting. I thank Jean Stone, Jacqueline Lynn, Heather Lowden, Maureen Brickley and Paul Noble who acted as “readers” during the writing of the history and Norma Buchanan for administrative support at important stages.

  • TID Badminton .Pdf
    The University of Stirling Title of Thesis: A comparison between Talent Identification and Development (TID) for badminton in China and the UK Name: Rita Yuan Gao Supervisor: Leigh Robinson Master of Philosophy Faculty of Health Sciences and Sport 2017 Abstract Badminton England created the first world badminton championship in 1898, known as the All England Badminton Championship. Since 1992 badminton has been an Olympic sport consisting of five disciplines, with fifteen badminton medals offered at each Olympic Games. Great Britain (GB) badminton won two Olympic medals between 2000 and 2008. China Badminton won 38 Olympic medals between 1992 and 2012. This leads to a number of questions, not least of which is to understand the success of China Badminton when compared with GB badminton, and the reasons behind that success. The research set out below is a study into badminton talent identification and development (TID) in China and the United Kingdom (UK). The study compares and contrasts the relative success of the systems used in China and the UK, discussing the similarities and differences in both country’s badminton TID programmes. This research followed a mixed methodology using three different types of research. These included documentary analysis of both countries’ sports systems and badminton programmes from an existing wide range of documentation. A total of forty Chinese and British national badminton players participated in the questionnaire survey. Eight national coaches from both countries were chosen for semi-structured interviews. The results indicated significant differences in the application of TID in badminton in both countries: • The sport system’s impact on athlete’s development opportunities; • Differences in the identification of badminton talent progress; based on age and testing; • Differences in player development; training age, training hours and training years; • The age at which players specialise in badminton and the age at which they reach peak performance.
