WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO BE AN OLYMPIC ATHLETE?
HOW DO YOUR ATHLETES TRANSITION FROM SCHOOL TO SENIOR ATHLETICS?
WHO ARE THE ATHLETES TO LOOK OUT FOR AT THE OLYMPICS?
With the Olympics about a month away and the deadline to qualify for the Olympics coming up on the 29th June we take a look at athletics and what it means to athletes and schools.
We are privileged to have three time Olympian and TUKS lecturer, LJ van Zyl talking to us about Athletics and opportunities that school kids have at getting recognized, transitioning from school to professional athletics and being able to participate at the Olympics.
He will also talk about requirements and qualifying standards that they need to achieve and with this in mind we will talk about some of the talent that we are sending to the Olympics and what is happening in other countries.
