We are delighted to announce the Performance Programme Athletes for the next year!
James Williams, Chief Executive Officer shared:
I would like to congratulate all the athletes on their selection to our support programmes.
Its always important for the organisation to continue to explore how we can make the greatest impact on the performance of our athletes. Our aim is to create a World Class Development system where we can give athletes the greatest opportunity to transition towards the World Class Performance plan led by UK Athletics.
Our support is not just aimed at the athlete, but also at the Coach and the environment that supports the development of the athlete. Our team will work tirelessly to ensure that the athlete’s have the support mechanisms in place to further improve the performance levels of the sport across Wales.
