4 State LTAD
10 pillars of LTAD
-
Development of fundamental motor skills and muscle strength are paramount to successful participation in sport, physical education, and physical activity.
Kids should be routinely provided with opportunities to develop health-fitness and skills-fitness capacities across childhood and adolescence.
-
All kids deserve an opportunity to play, be active, and participate in sport at every age and ability.
Kids should be exposed to a variety of sports, games, and physical activities (play, chores, etc.).
While focusing on positive sports and physical activity, it is important to remember proper injury prevention protocols and practices for youth.
Testing is only a snapshot of performance on that given day, so it must be used prudently when determining ability. Testing should reflect overall abilities.
All kids should be introduced to strength and conditioning, which can be integrated into sports practice, so that they develop positive healthy habits, learn to enjoy strength and conditioning, and get in shape to play—not vice versa.
Coaches need to understand pediatric principles of youth growth and development, including pedagogical instruction, to best serve youth.
