Hi Athletics Enthusiast

 In March this year FutureSprinting.com was launched. It has grown rapidly and now has nearly 1000 public members and many subscribers. The content is steadily expanding.

You may like to visit it at
www.futuresprinting.com for your first visit or to have another look.  There are now a number of public discussion areas in the site.
 
More information about the site is attached below.
 
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________


Future Track & Field aims to provide modern training programs & ideas that will always stay up to date.

Coaches worldwide often have difficulty learning and refining their training methods. This is because there is a lack of open constructive discussion that can lead to development of the best methods. Coaches often operate in isolation and this means there is a great deal of 're-inventing the wheel' & slow sharing of any new findings with other coaches through research papers, magazines and books.

This community provides a range of modern comprehensive programs & access to this sites information will fast track the development of any coach. The bonus is also that the sites programs will always be evolving out of the discussion that occurs between members of the community.

The key criteria for any coach to become a member is that they will need to be supportived of the broader approach evident in the programs. It is intended that coaches are keen to implement the style of training program presented in the site with at least one of the athletes in their squad.

Athletes can benefit from this community because they will find inside a large number of athletes and coaches with similar approaches to training for their event. It will be easy to meet athletes who are doing similar sessions & probably have many similar experiences as well as interests.
