Over 300 delegates arrived at The Belfry yesterday for the opening of this year's World Class Performance Conference. In its nineth year the conference was attended by Britain's top sports professionals including coaches, performance directors, sports scientists and team managers.
The conference, a three day event, will be used to explore 'teamship', the main theme heading the conference, sharing best practice and examining how teams achieve success within other industries.
Conference host, BBC Sport’s Hazel Irvine, explained that the theme of ‘teamship’ was selected in part due to feedback from the delegates attending the Conference last year. John Steele, UK Sport’s Chief Executive, added that the theme was chosen in recognition of the fact that working together at this important time for British sport, and getting the most out of all the people supporting British athletes, will be fundamental to our success in 2012 and the system that is in place thereafter.
