The LTAD model is based on the physical, mental, emotional and cognitive development of children and adolescents. It is an inclusive concept that encourages all individuals to be involved in lifelong activity and articulates the need for all children, particularly those that have the capacity and interest to become elite athletes, to be given a solid foundation in physical, technical, tactical and mental capacities upon which to build their performance abilities. - LTAD Brochures/Poster: http://crosscountrybc.ca/sites/default/files/documents/LTAD-brochure.pdf
