Overview
Most sport organisations need to ensure that their competitive advantage is maximised through the best
preparation of their athletes. Increasingly sports are looking to develop High Performance Units or
performance support teams to provide an integrated, co-ordinated systematic approach to the optimal
servicing of elite athletes. This four day residential programme will use case studies to consider
the issues surrounding the creation and design of a High Performance unit. It will focus on using a
dynamic cross-disciplinary system rather than a departmental approach to enhance high performance.
All participants who complete the course will receive an Executive Certificate which is endorsed
by the SKA Academic Advisory Committee and bears the marks of the University of Sydney and the University
of Technology, Sydney.
