Sports Performance The Sports Performance Unit (SPU) has had a strong year working with TIS athletes. Activities have included physical preparation, sports science testing and research, biomechanics analysis, sports medicine and Talent Identification (TID). Specifically, our activities have been: • Extensive support to Tasmanian-based athletes and coaches. • Opening of the Technopark-based strength facility and laboratory in the south of the state. • Support to national rowing crews. • Continued testing and projects run with Elite Development Programs (EDP) and National Training Centre (NTC) squads. John Gregory Ben Scarlett Rachel Elsley, Sports Performance Officer – TID, is taking 12 months leave to undertake study in performance analysis. Laboratory Technician, Alanna Martin, will be back filling Rachel’s role. Alanna holds a degree in Exercise and Sport Science and undertook a placement at the Northern Territory Institute of Sport before commencing at the TIS. Alanna has worked on our quality control and equipment servicing and will be a fine addition to the sports science team. We have continued to take international placement students. University of Bath students relocate to Tasmania and work full-time with the TIS for nine months. Students travel and accommodate themselves at their own cost and fulfil their third year practical requirements. Katie McGibbon was our most recent student, assisting us extensively with research and testing. Rachel Elsley Alanna Martin We have maintained our services to the NTC programs of rowing, cycling, hockey and athletics. Furthermore, EDP sports including AFL, basketball, football, swimming and kayaking have profited from regular sports science and physical preparation input. We continue to have rowing and cycling as national TID program sports, which were supported with testing in the past year. Athletes come to the TIS in Launceston for physical testing, while the Rowing Australia testing trailer has had numerous trips around the state, offering testing on location. Squads are well established with strong performances being recorded regularly. Peter Culhane Calvin Philp 11
