A recently concluded workshop on Long Term Athlete Development was held in the Dominican Republic from June 6 to 9. The workshop was conducted by Mr. Paul Jurabla from Canada. The Workshop is one of an agreed partnership between National Olympic Committees of the Caribbean and the organizers of the Toronto 2015 Pan American Games. The workshop spoke to the importance of the development of the physical literacy skills of a child in his or her early years in order to ensure a more successful experience in sport and a more positive perspective on the importance of sport in their adult years.
