The National Strength and Conditioning
Association has released a position statement related to long-term athletic
development. The goal of the authors was “to critically synthesize existing
literature and current practices within the field and to compose a relevant
position statement…. A list of 10 pillars of successful long-term athletic
development are presented, which summarize the key recommendations…. With these
pillars in place, it is believed that the NSCA can (a) help foster a more
unified and holistic approach to long-term athletic development, (b) promote
the benefits of a lifetime of healthy physical activity, and (c) prevent and/or
minimize injuries from sports participation for all boys and girls.”
