Mission
![Page 4: ATHLETICS NAMIBIA DEVELOPMENT. “Success requires vision and dedication”](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062223/551c1d7d550346a84f8b59c1/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
To encourage participation in the sport of Athletics by providing a positive
and supportive environment where athletes can achieve
their individual potential.
![Page 5: ATHLETICS NAMIBIA DEVELOPMENT. “Success requires vision and dedication”](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062223/551c1d7d550346a84f8b59c1/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Our main objective is to strive to improve
with each effort and to stay up to date with the latest trends. We
want to provide nothing less than the best for our members as individuals as well
as athletes or coaches.
![Page 6: ATHLETICS NAMIBIA DEVELOPMENT. “Success requires vision and dedication”](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062223/551c1d7d550346a84f8b59c1/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Ultimately we want to produce
international results.
![Page 7: ATHLETICS NAMIBIA DEVELOPMENT. “Success requires vision and dedication”](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062223/551c1d7d550346a84f8b59c1/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Nothing stays the same, it either gets
better or it gets worse and if we are
not continually striving to get
better we will get worse.

“Adapt and thrive, or fall
behind”

Athletics Namibia is a non-profit organisation
that is focused on providing an enjoyable
and constructive environment where
athletes can develop character and master
athletic skills
![Page 11: ATHLETICS NAMIBIA DEVELOPMENT. “Success requires vision and dedication”](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062223/551c1d7d550346a84f8b59c1/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Our goal is to produce an atmosphere where
athletes of all levels can flourish and we can work
together to ultimately create an environment
where international results can be attained.
![Page 12: ATHLETICS NAMIBIA DEVELOPMENT. “Success requires vision and dedication”](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062223/551c1d7d550346a84f8b59c1/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The core focus is to build a solid
base by developing a
strong grass-roots feeder system.
![Page 13: ATHLETICS NAMIBIA DEVELOPMENT. “Success requires vision and dedication”](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062223/551c1d7d550346a84f8b59c1/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
The coaching staff is
committed to providing the best possible instruction in the sport of
Athletics
![Page 14: ATHLETICS NAMIBIA DEVELOPMENT. “Success requires vision and dedication”](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062223/551c1d7d550346a84f8b59c1/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Our objective in the process is not only
focused on producing elite athletes, but on cultivating exemplary citizens. We want to
pass along good values and life skills,
and in the process make better athletes.
![Page 15: ATHLETICS NAMIBIA DEVELOPMENT. “Success requires vision and dedication”](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062223/551c1d7d550346a84f8b59c1/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
We do not believe in complacen
cy!
![Page 16: ATHLETICS NAMIBIA DEVELOPMENT. “Success requires vision and dedication”](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062223/551c1d7d550346a84f8b59c1/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Complacency is the success
disease: it takes root when you’re
feeling good about whom you
are and what you’ve achieved.
![Page 17: ATHLETICS NAMIBIA DEVELOPMENT. “Success requires vision and dedication”](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062223/551c1d7d550346a84f8b59c1/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Anytime you stop striving to
get better, you’re bound to get worse.
![Page 18: ATHLETICS NAMIBIA DEVELOPMENT. “Success requires vision and dedication”](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062223/551c1d7d550346a84f8b59c1/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Excellence isn’t a destination. It’s a process that must
be continually improved. (Pat Riley – THE
WINNER WITHIN, 1994)

Our main focus is to strive to improve with
each effort and to stay up to date with the latest trends
![Page 20: ATHLETICS NAMIBIA DEVELOPMENT. “Success requires vision and dedication”](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062223/551c1d7d550346a84f8b59c1/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Philosophy
![Page 21: ATHLETICS NAMIBIA DEVELOPMENT. “Success requires vision and dedication”](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062223/551c1d7d550346a84f8b59c1/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Participation is encouraged at a
young age in order to reach
maximum potential as an
adult.
![Page 22: ATHLETICS NAMIBIA DEVELOPMENT. “Success requires vision and dedication”](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062223/551c1d7d550346a84f8b59c1/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
The program is a long term venture.
Often, young athletes learn
beginning techniques from coaches who may not know the most
up to date techniques.
![Page 23: ATHLETICS NAMIBIA DEVELOPMENT. “Success requires vision and dedication”](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062223/551c1d7d550346a84f8b59c1/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Less updated skills could result in fewer great athletes down the road, especially
if some of those techniques result in bad habits that are
hard to change.
![Page 24: ATHLETICS NAMIBIA DEVELOPMENT. “Success requires vision and dedication”](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062223/551c1d7d550346a84f8b59c1/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Young people need to learn
good skills from the beginning to
eliminate the forming of bad
technical habits.
![Page 25: ATHLETICS NAMIBIA DEVELOPMENT. “Success requires vision and dedication”](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062223/551c1d7d550346a84f8b59c1/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Therefore, it is important that
athletes receive excellent instruction
at a young age, in order to attain high performance results
in the future.
![Page 26: ATHLETICS NAMIBIA DEVELOPMENT. “Success requires vision and dedication”](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062223/551c1d7d550346a84f8b59c1/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
The objectives of Athletics Namibia is to
recruit athletes at a young age and focus
on developing a sound foundation of technical skills for the years to
come.
![Page 27: ATHLETICS NAMIBIA DEVELOPMENT. “Success requires vision and dedication”](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062223/551c1d7d550346a84f8b59c1/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Athletics Namibia is committed towards
coaching at all levels of the sport, primarily focusing on developing elite
athletes.
![Page 28: ATHLETICS NAMIBIA DEVELOPMENT. “Success requires vision and dedication”](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062223/551c1d7d550346a84f8b59c1/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
We strongly encourage participation at a very
early stage, with 6 years of age being the
ideal. Our primary focus is the nurturing of young athletes into
adult champions rather than attempting
to recruit adults
![Page 29: ATHLETICS NAMIBIA DEVELOPMENT. “Success requires vision and dedication”](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062223/551c1d7d550346a84f8b59c1/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Athletics Namibia plans to provide
coaching throughout all the age groups. Consider that when constructing a solid
building, the engineer will begin with a solid
foundation at the basement, not on the roof or on the second
floor.
![Page 30: ATHLETICS NAMIBIA DEVELOPMENT. “Success requires vision and dedication”](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062223/551c1d7d550346a84f8b59c1/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
It is crucial that athletes receive
good instruction at a young age. This will develop good habits and assist them in reaching
their optimum potential.
![Page 31: ATHLETICS NAMIBIA DEVELOPMENT. “Success requires vision and dedication”](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062223/551c1d7d550346a84f8b59c1/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
At Athletics Namibia the
athlete is at the centre of our
model not only as an athlete but also as a
person.
![Page 32: ATHLETICS NAMIBIA DEVELOPMENT. “Success requires vision and dedication”](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062223/551c1d7d550346a84f8b59c1/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
The most important
element of a good sports
program is the end product.
![Page 33: ATHLETICS NAMIBIA DEVELOPMENT. “Success requires vision and dedication”](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062223/551c1d7d550346a84f8b59c1/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Our end product is not only an outstanding
athlete, but also an outstanding
citizen.
![Page 34: ATHLETICS NAMIBIA DEVELOPMENT. “Success requires vision and dedication”](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062223/551c1d7d550346a84f8b59c1/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Optimum performance will be attained when the emphasis is
on character development as well as athletic improvement.
![Page 35: ATHLETICS NAMIBIA DEVELOPMENT. “Success requires vision and dedication”](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062223/551c1d7d550346a84f8b59c1/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Having a positive attitude not only toward sport, but also toward life is
paramount.
![Page 36: ATHLETICS NAMIBIA DEVELOPMENT. “Success requires vision and dedication”](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062223/551c1d7d550346a84f8b59c1/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Skills acquired in sport easily transfer into facets of life.
