This innovative new Conference is a collaboration between the Sports Science Department at world-leading Loughborough University, and ICE Education. It is intended for Strength and Conditioning coaches, Athletic Development leaders and other performance professionals who deal with aspiring and able athletes in a school setting. It will present the most contemporary thinking and approaches, direct from elite sport, and consider how these can be adopted and adapted within a school setting.
The afternoon will present a carousel of sessions with Loughborough staff, each considering how best practice from elite sport can be leveraged to support athletes in schools. It will enable coaches to return to schools equipped to enhance their programmes for the new school year, ensuring that their students will benefit from the most recent science and current approaches in elite sport.
As always, there will the opportunity to network with like-minded professionals. This will be formalised within the discussion forum, where delegates can share approaches to common issues and widen their sector awareness.
“This course gave us the confidence to encourage our students to push themselves to the best of their ability. The results we’ve seen in recent competitions have spoken for themselves!”
