NSW Talented Athlete Camp (NTAC) educates and inspires junior athletes and parents
Published Mon 05 Nov 2018
NSW & ACT junior athletes and their parents were welcomed back to Precision Athletica for the second 2018 NSW Talented Athlete Camp (NTAC) on 4 November at Sydney Olympic Park.
TAC is a Talent Identification and Athlete and Parent Development Camp and selected athletes were chosen to participate from their 2017 Division 4 Interschools results.
This camp built on the activities learnt from the May camp. Partnered with Precision Athletica to deliver the program, athletes were exposed to physical literacy support via educational lectures and education and experience of fundamental movement skills.
The athlete's parents were invited to attend an educational workshop, to better understand what is required of them, what to look for and how to provide the best opportunities for their child.
The parent workshop presenters were Anthony Khoury - acrobatic coach and coordinator for snowsports and other sports, Grant Stewart - parent of Georgia Stewart Moguls competitor and NSWIS scholarship holder, and Callum Watson - two-time Olympian in Cross Country skiing.
