Congratulations Georgia!

Congratulations to Georgia who was selected into the "Targeted Talented Athlete Squad", part of the Orienteering Australia National Squads. This is a fantastic achievement as membership is by invitation only, based on performance analysis from major national events in 2014.
Well done Georgia and we wish you every success for the 2015 season.

The OA high performance pathway has been thoroughly reworked in the past 15 months to define a clearer path from talented junior to world championship athlete.
The squads are:
Elite High Performance Squad (EHPS)
High Performance Squad (HPS)
National Development Squad (NDS)
Australian Junior Development Squad (AJDS)
Targeted Talented Athlete Squad (TTAS)
As a member of an OA National Squad each athlete must:
*Create a Profile on the Orienteering Australia Athlete Management Platform (AMP). New squad members will receive an invitation to be a member of the AMP. This profile is to include- age, phone, email address, postal address, coaches name and contact, IOF ID, link to training log, athlete biography, photo.
*Maintain an Athlete Log- contact with squad coach
*Complete Race Analysis (under Evaluations) for all major events
*Prepare an Event Schedule for 2015
*Complete a Wellness Test at least once a month and log any illness or injury
*Regularly log on to AMP to check documents as all communication with athletes will be via AMP.
