Statistics Diving Australia Report 2001-2002 EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR’S REPORT With the horrific events that have occurred over the past year and with the daily threat of further atrocities, it is sometimes difficult to remember the positive effect that sport can have on our children and our national psyche. Not long ago the world was united in the excitement and spectacle of the 2002 World Cup and prior to that the 2002 Olympic Games. Sport can be a big positive in our ever changing world! These events have also had far reaching implications for our sport. The issues of insurance and governance are consistently being promoted as issues requiring our full attention. It has also brought with it many unrealistic demands that claim our limited resources. As we pass the half way point before the 2004 Games in Athens, the focus will more and more be placed on the preparation of our elite divers. With the majority of our funding targeted on the high performance program we face the challenge of ensuring our key performance indicators are met to ensure continued funding and support through the AIS program. The highlight of the past year was the history making performances of Irina Lashko, Loudy Tourky and Mathew Helm at the 9th FINA World Championships in Japan. A Silver Medal by Irina in the Women‟s 3 Metre, a Bronze Medal by Loudy in the Women‟s Platform and a Bronze Medal by Mathew in the Men‟s Platform - a fantastic result with all three performances creating history. The National Team members remain totally committed and thoroughly professional in their approach to their diving. We can all be proud of the example set by our National Team athletes. The continued assistance of the Australian Sports Commission and the Australian Olympic Committee to our High Performance Program is significant to our success. The funding allocated for team preparation and the confidence in the sport to succeed is much appreciated. Also to be congratulated and thanked are the NSW Institute of Sport and South Australian Sports Institute for their input into the National Team results and for their continued support for Diving. It remains a concern for Diving Australia that our limited resources are directed on the elite program with little option to focus on our sport development role. Of more of a concern is the small number of volunteers who are available to support our programs and events. Solutions for these issues are a high priority for the Board and will require the combined efforts of state associations, clubs and DA to ensure our young athletes are totally supported and our sport continues to grow and succeed. HIGH PERFORMANCE PROGRAM The SEP Management Committee under the co-ordination of Andrew Heath continued its role of overseeing the high performance program as set out in the DA Selection Policy and Criteria. The high level of commitment by this committee to maintaining a professional approach to the management of the elite program has played a significant role in the continuing success of our athletes at international level. With the changes in the DA Rules and structure of the program the role of this committee will continue to be critical in determining the planning and direction of the high performance program. Diving Australia Report 2001-2002 SEP Committee members included: Andrew Heath HPM (co-ordinator) Hui Tong AIS Head Coach Salvador Sobrino State Elite Program representative Chantelle Michell/Loudy Tourky Divers‟ representative Philip Pullar ADA Executive representative Michael Murphy ADA Selection Committee representative Kylie Bloodworth ASC representative (non-voting) While reviewing the DA Strategic Plan in early 2002, concern was expressed that due to limited resources certain objectives of the High Performance Program were not being implemented to a level satisfactory to the committee. Specific expertise was required for the program and Bob Crudgington, former National Coach of the Softball Australia Elite Program, was approached to: . Review the current structure of the National Elite Plan. Develop a comprehensive National Training Program based on successful coaching principles that is endorsed by members of the NECP, including: - Minimum requirements for an elite training centre - Testing protocols and standards - National camps program format - Sport Science/Sports Medicine program - Talent identification - Performance standards . Incorporate the National Elite Plan into Diving Australia formal agreements with NSWIS, SASI and other state high performance programs. Bob commenced on a part-time basis in February 2002 keen and enthusiastic to work with Hui Tong and the NTC coaches to deliver the expertise he had gathered in his role with Softball over two Olympic campaigns. An Elite Program Workshop was conducted in Brisbane on 10 April 2002 to which all NTC coaches and a representative from each State were invited. An outline of the direction that National Coach Hui Tong believed was necessary to raise the standard of our programs was presented and discussed. The major outcomes from the meeting were: . Management to be improved by combining the resources of DA along with the National Coach and AIS to provide leadership through planning, monitoring and evaluating the performances of the NTP . Changes to the selection process through selection of a National Squad in August of each year based on year‟s performances . Establishment of a national network and register for all SS/M consultants . Enhancement of the sports science component of the National Training Program . Extensive monitoring and evaluation Bob and Hui would have a very busy few months before the group were to meet again and discuss progress. Diving Australia Report 2001-2002 Australian Institute of Sport Program After four months in the position of AIS Head Coach / DA National Coach, Hui Tong‟s family had joined him in Brisbane and Hui‟s understanding of the sporting environment in Australia had begun to take on shape. With the extensive knowledge and experience Hui had gained in China and Canada he gradually introduced changes which were readily embraced by the athletes in the program. The 2002 AIS Scholarship holders were: Robert Newbery (SA) Mathew Helm (NSW) Steven Barnett (NSW) Matthew Cooper (Qld) Chantelle Michell (Vic) Lynda Folauhola (SA) Nicole Ng (NSW) Liesl Ischia (Vic) The success of the program relies heavily on the administrative support of Andrew Heath and management support from the AIS in Canberra. Michael Scott, AIS Director, continues to make an impact on the structure and direction of the AIS. Of particular benefit has been the introduction of the Performance Enhancement Program (PEP) which is a program to provide a framework for a process of continuous improvement of AIS sports programs, management and service providers. At the same time that Bob Crudgington was appointed to assist the DA High Performance Program it was seem that he could also provide a service to the AIS by: . Providing professional mentoring support to the AIS Head Coach. Enhancing the management of AIS program through special initiatives and projects. Of increasing importance to the AIS program is the valuable support from the SS/M team. Special thanks to Physiotherapist Kathy Mitchell, Strength and Conditioning Coach David Pickering, QAS Psychology Wendy Swift and QAS Biomechanist Lee Nicholson. The strength of the SS/M support has improved significantly over the past year and the AIS program would be far less effective without the support of these professional, committed individuals. National Training Program The DA High Performance Network continued with five programs in NSW, SA, Vic, WA and QLD. The NSW Institute of Sport and the SA Sports Institute continued with full status diving programs. Diving Australia Report 2001-2002 DA recognised the crucial role played by these state elite programs by increasing its commitment to these programs to approximately $65,000 in financial support from HPP funding in the 2001-2002 financial year: NSW Institute of Sport $20,000 SA Sports Institute $20,000 VDA High Performance Program $10,000 QLD Elite & Development Program $10,000 WA Elite & Development Program $5,000 NSW Institute of Sport After the departure of his Assistant Coach, Salvador Sobrino had the hard task of coaching his full squad until a replacement coach could be appointed. The NSW Institute of Sport program continues to set a very high standard in program delivery and this has been enhanced with the appointment of Vyninka Arlow from WA to the position of NSWIS Scholarship Coach.

  • 5 China Dreaming
    5 China Dreaming Representing the Perfect Present, Anticipating the Rosy Future Stefan Landsberger Abstract As China has developed into a relatively well-offf, increasingly urbanized nation, educating the people has become more urgent than ever. Rais- ing (human) quality (素质) has become a major concern for educators and intellectuals who see moral education as a major task of the state. The visual exhortations in public spaces aimed at moral education are dominated by dreaming about a nation that has risen and needs to be taken seriously. The visualization of these dreams resembles commercial advertising, mixing elements like the Great Wall or the Tiananmen Gate building with modern or futuristic images. This chapter focuses on posters, looking at the changes in contents and representation of government visuals in an increasingly urbanized and media-literate society. Keywords: visual propaganda; governmentality; normative propaganda; Chinese Dream; Beijing Olympics 2008 Sometimes one still encounters hand-painted faded slogans in the coun- tryside urging those working in agriculture to learn from Dazhai, or to energetically study Mao Zedong Thought. By and large, political messages and the images they use have disappeared from Chinese public spaces, in particular in urban areas. Yet, the production of these images, of what we would call propaganda, has not stopped; the government remains com- mitted to educating the people, as it has over the millennia. Compared to the fijirst three decades of the People’s Republic, the messages have shifted to moral and normative topics, and their visualization has become much more sophisticated than in the earlier periods. This is partly because they Valjakka, Minna & Wang, Meiqin (eds.), Visual Arts, Representations and Interventions in Contemporary China: Urbanized Interface.

  • Olympic Diva Guo to Compete in Chinese National Diving 19:26, September 20, 2007
    Olympic diva Guo to compete in Chinese national diving 19:26, September 20, 2007 Olympic champion diver Guo Jingjing will lead a group of elite to compete in the Chinese Diving Championships, which served as one of the Olympic trials, to be held in Yantai, Shandong province from Sept. 21-26. During the six-day meet, 14 events as in men's and women's 1 and 3 meters springboard, 10m platform and synchro as well as the all-around and team competition will be contest among 350 divers. As the grand slam winner at the World Cup, the World Championships and the Olympic Games, Guo has no exception to show up at the national championships. She just completed a hat-trick of gold double at the newly-invented World Series by winning both women's 3m springboard and synchro in three stops. Guo, 26, currently the eldest women athlete in the Chinese diving history, said: "I need to vie for the Olympic berth from every trail, by my own performance, not by my previous reputation." Guo will compete in her favorite springboard, where she will face the challenges from her Olympic synchro partner Wu Minxia, world champion Li Ting and newcomer He Zi. Absent from the national contests for nearly one year, Hu Jia and Peng Bo, the gold medalists in the men's 10m platform and springboard at the Athens Olympic Games, will stage a strong comeback at Yantai. Other Olympic champions, including women's 10m platform synchro winners Li Ting and Lao Lishi and world champions Qin Kai, Lin Yue and Huo Liang will also show up at the national trial.
