PEU

What ever became of the Performance Enhancement Unit ( PEU) that was formed on 30-09-08?

On this date a little over a year ago,the Barbados Netball Association announced the formation of this programme which was supposed to be a national plan to govern all aspects of the sport from the developmental stage through to the senior team.

Ironically the head trainer assigned this job is also one of the applicants for the vacated position of head coach of the national senior team. HMMMM!!! Am I to assume that if HE gets the coaching position the PEU will FINALLY begin or will he do what he does best ( write workouts,programmes,etc for others) and release that responsibility?

Several years ago , a similar need was acknowledged and with this in mind, the High Performance Development Programme ( HPDP) was formed. Once the proposal was accepted by the BNA, the 'powers-that-be' in the form of selfish liars swept in and made a 'claim'. After a few years,the HPDP came to a standstill.

Will the PEU get a chance to start? Hopefully now that the 'powers-that-be ' aren't around it will.
