A presentation and interactive workshop on our Gender Equity Research Project. Biathlon Canada recognizes that achieving gender equity within our organization and our sport is crucial to our future.

BrockU with funding from Sport Canada is assisting us in examining our current practices as they relate to gender equity. We are examining everything from participant registrations to race invitations to our own governance structures, a gender audit will allow us to complete this organization-wide examination.

Biathlon Canada’s commitment aligns with the Canadian government’s commitment to achieving gender equity in sport by 2035. We will use the information collected by the gender audit to guide the development of stronger policies, programs and ways of conducting business, and to achieve gender equity at Biathlon Canada.

Presentation description: How much of your daily training is mental? This session will introduce various psychological skills and explore how to train them at home and in practice. We will discuss practical strategies coaches and athletes can use to develop and grow their mental game.

Speaker bio: Renée Matte is a graduate student in Psychology at the University of New Brunswick. Her research has focused on performance enhancement, anxiety sensitivity and sport dropout, coach and athlete behaviour, and hazing in athletics. Outside of university, Renée has been a mental performance consultant for the past decade, working with athletes of all levels in over 20 sports. She also has been an artistic swimming coach for 15 years. The combination of these positions have enabled her to bring research into practice and approach sport performance from multiple perspectives.

Presentation description: The GMP is a road map and gap analysis tool to take our top Junior athletes to the international podium, through a focus on the Key Performance indicators (KPI’s) that underlie performance. These KPI’s fall under 6 main pillars – technical/tactical skiing, technical/tactical shooting, Physical, Mental, Health and Equipment. In a high-level overview, we will present these key performance indicators that underlie performance and present how we will measure our athletes to ensure they develop these KPI’s to world class levels.

Training is about developing much more than just fitness. This session will explore how the concept of psychological load can help coaches design more effective practices and training plans. We will discuss decision-making, recovery, and the psychology of optimal practice.

This panel discussion will highlight COVID-19 specific training considerations for biathletes. Panelists will share advice towards creating safe training environments, as well as direction for good quality physical training, nutrition and a strong mental outlook while under the constraints of COVID-19.
