NYAC Competitive Structure
The NYAC program is based on strong research and follows the Long-Term Athlete Development Model (LTAD), which has proven benefits for athletes' lifelong wellness and is the organizational paradigm of Canadian sport. Below is a series of slides outlining the structure for NYAC.
With this new structure:
- The separation by age group allows coaches to tailor the program to reach swimmers more effectively based on their ability to learn and train
- A swimmer’s social environment is improved, and this is important for the well-being of the athlete as well as keeping swimmers engaged and building pride and team spirit
- Increased exposure for more groups to train at TPASC, the top training facility in the country, inspiring greatness in our athletes
