It is envisioned that athletes will derive a number benefits from the Performer Development Centre (PDC) programme:
- Regular training with like-minded, comparably talented and motivated athletes;
- Regular monitoring on quality of technique / relative fitness levels;
- Specific and ongoing application of the LTAD concept and its relevance to performance development;
- Exposure to new coaching experiences;
- Access to specific support expertise and inspiration;
- Opportunity to compete/train at a higher level;
- Opportunity to improve and move on to higher strands of support; and
- Programme identity through issue of PDC athlete kit.
