Speed is at the basis of every athletic discipline be it
track or field, sprints or long distances.
And Speed Development will be the subject of a forthcoming
European Athletic Coaches Association Congress. Held in Malta
between the 7th and 9th of November it will be bringing together
a panel of experts in the area with the aim of discussing
this subject.
A number of top coaches have confirmed their presence, including
Jacques Piacenta who will explain the specifics of preparing
elite female endurance sprinters and Mike McFarlane who will
discuss male:female training variations.
Furthermore, EACA President Frank Dick will talk of the series
of interdependent initiatives set up by the IAAF to establish
professional and academic creditability for athletic coaches.
Further details can be obtained by contacting Ms Valerie
Farrugia, the congress manager, on valerief@hotmail.com
