Playground to Podium is a national strategy for the identification, development and support of talented young disabled athletes, The School Sports Partnership held its first talent ID day on Wednesday 10th March. Over 30 young disabled children from both mainstream and special schools took part in a variety of events aimed at assessing their ability. Those children showing high levels of ability and talent will be invited to attend a County Assessment Centre for a more formal assessment and high quality coaching in specific sports and where ultimately they may be selected to participate in an elite training programme delivered by a NGB.
The ultimate aim of this programme is to produce our next Paralympians and elite disabled athletes by providing structured pathways in disability sport from schools to community clubs and onto performance environments. Linking into this framework are the player performance pathways from National Governing Bodies of Sport (NGB’s), providing performance environments and high quality coaching for identified talented participants to enter County, Regional and National squads.
