The 2011 edition of the International Festival of Athletics Coaching, which concluded last weekend, attracted 318 delegates from 26 different countries (including 19 European nations).
The three-day festival included keynote presentations by top speakers and well-received practical workshops, which were held at Glasgow’s top sporting venue, Scotstoun Stadium.
The practical sessions included demonstration work with British athletes, former Olympic high jumper Dalton Grant and 2011 European U23 Bronze medallist Lynsey Sharp.
The festival closed with an address by European Athletics Coaches Association President, Frank W. Dick OBE, who summarised the latest developments in coaching and performances in athletics in Europe.
Presentation materials from the conference can be found at www.ifacscotland.co.uk, and keep an eye peeled for announcements on the line up for next IFAC, which will be in Glasgow from 26-28 October 2012.
