The PyeongChang Winter Olympics saw the culmination
of many years and millions of collective hours of athlete
development and preparation. Congratulations to the
hosts and to the athletes from ASPC Member Centers who
competed at the Winter Games.
The IOC’s Athlete 365 Programme featured in our first edition
was officially launched at PeyongChang, look out for the IOC
Athlete Charter Article and Video in this edition.
Our congratulations to Manu, Tapio and their team for the
highly successful ASPC European Forum which was held
at Magglingen in Switzerland. All the European Forum
presentations were recorded and are available here.
The 1st ASPC African Continental Forum will be held in
Durban from 6-7 September 2018. Prime have once again
partnered with the KwaZulu-Natal Department Sport and
Recreation, SASCOC and eThekwini Municipality to make the
event possible and Dr Kevin Subban and his team are hard at
work planning the event. Details on the African Forum and a
link to their website and registration page can be found here.
Forum is Sports Performance, an Integrated Approach and
the programme promises to provide an excellent professional
development opportunity.
We followed up with Bennett King who presented at the
Durban Forum on the Gold Coast Commonwealth Games.
The Queensland Academy of Sport and Team Australia have
kindly shared statistics on their athletes performance at the
event and it makes for impressive reading. Congratulations
on an outstanding set of results as hosts.
We are always more effective as leaders is our goals are
underpinned by a deeper underlying purpose. This edition’s
leadership segment is from renowned leadership speaker
Andy Stanley and is entitled Powered by Purpose.
The ASPC continues to grow in strength (and numbers) and
we have had 21 new members joining since our January
edition. Welcome to the ASPC family.
We hope you enjoy our June edition.
Best regards
