Naturally, the level or degree of adaptation is dependent on the genetical endowment of an individual. However, the general trends or patterns of adaptation are identified by physiological research, and guidelines are clearly delineated of the various adaptation processes, such as adaptation to muscular endurance or maximum strength. Adolescence is a difficult period to define in terms of the time of its onset and termination.

  • 2019 Canada Winter Games Long Track Speed Skating Technical Package
    2019 Canada Winter Games Long Track Speed Skating 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.

    SPORT DISPUTE RESOLUTION CENTRE OF CANADA (SDRCC) CENTRE DE RÈGLEMENT DES DIFFÉRENDS SPORTIFS DU CANADA (CRDSC) NO: SDRCC 19-0416 BRENDAN COREY (CLAIMANT) AND SPEED SKATING CANADA (SSC) (RESPONDENT) AND MATHIEU BERNIER SÉBASTIEN GAGNON KEIL HILLIS MAXIME LAOUN ALPHONSE OUIMETTE JORDAN PIERRE-GILLES (AFFECTED PARTIES) DECISION Attendees at hearing: For the Claimant: Emir Crowne Amanda Fowler Liam Macfarlane For the Respondent: Adam Klevinas Shawn Holman Jennifer Cottin For the Affected Parties: N/A Summary Speed Skating Canada (SSC) named skaters to its National and Development Teams in March 2019. As part of that process, skaters who had been injured could apply through a Bye to be named to the team despite lacking some results. One skater, the Claimant, was denied his Bye request to be named to the Development Team. The Claimant appealed the decision to reject his Bye, arguing that the Respondent had named other skaters to the team improperly. At issue is the Respondent’s interpretation of its Bye Policy. In previous years, the Respondent would not name a skater to a team through a Bye if the skater had never been previously named to the team. This year, the Respondent named two skaters to the National Team who had not skated for the National Team before. The Respondent elected to do so based on those skaters’ rankings, rather than past membership of a team. The Claimant disputes this, and requests that Team Selection be done in accordance with past practice. For the reasons that follow, I accept his appeal in part. Procedure 1. The Claimant appealed the Respondent’s decision to reject the Claimant’s bye request on March 30, 2019.

  • Canadian Journal for Women in Coaching
    © 2011 Coaching Association of Canada, ISSN 1496-1539 April 2011, Vol. 11, No. 2 Three Pioneers: Women Who Coach Male Athletes Myths abound when it comes to women in the coaching profession. Over the years, the Canadian Journal for Women in Coaching has tackled all of them, from the one that suggests that marriage and children spell an end to her coaching career—sure it is difficult to successfully combine the three, but studies and role models point to support on the home front as the key ingredient—to the one that positions the woman coach as (too) emotional. Anyone who follows televised sports would be hard put to advance that erroneous claim for more than 30 seconds. Emotions certainly play a part in good coaching, and while all generalizations should be suspect, women tend to bring to sport those that tilt toward fairness and balance as opposed to the more commonplace bravado and posturing of their male counterparts. More to the point is the fact that there are as many styles of coaching as there are coaches, but the one that works is inevitably based on mutual respect. In this issue, the Journal disproves yet another myth, the one about women coaches lacking the ability, knowledge, and commitment to successfully coach male high performance athletes. Their numbers may be small, but they do exist and flourish, as author Claire Carver-Dias discovered. Track and field coach Brenda Van Tighem has developed sprinter Sam Effah into a legitimate contender for a spot on Canada’s 2012 Olympic team. Appointed in 2003 as the first woman head coach of a Canadian Interuniversity Sport (CIS) men’s basketball team, Olga Hrycak, who heads the Université du Québec à Montréal (UQAM) program, began with raw rookies—the team was a first for UQAM—and captured the Quebec championship in 2009/2010.
