Working with high performance athletes makes obvious how important the basic skills are. To build a high outstanding "tower" we need strong foundation. In the highest level little mistakes make a huge difference.
Skipping kids development phases will lead to wrong technical models. A little "dust" in the system will likely cause injurie, stop the athlete's improvement restricting their carrier due to a burn out. At Seahawks we put strong emphasis on teaching the young athletes proven and mechanically correct technical models for sprint, jumps, hurdles, throws to build up their potential and fund the event suitable for each athletes capacities. |
