From time to time, there may be some flexibility in program selections, support and expectations to accommodate athletes whose circumstances may be slightly different to the norm, or who follow an atypical entry and\/or progression in our sport. We acknowledge that some athletes develop earlier than others, some athletes progress faster than others, and some athletes don\u2019t even come into canoe racing until a later age. We also discourage early specialisation and encourage athletes to participate in a range of sports to develop transferable skills\/ knowledge while they are young. The CRNZ Performance Pathway may not describe the performance journey with perfect accuracy for all athletes, however, it does provide a general indication of the CRNZ Performance System and associated opportunities and expectations for the majority. \u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"has_eae_slider elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-6bab4fb\" data-id=\"6bab4fb\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c5eab8f elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"c5eab8f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">PERFORMANCE PATHWAY COACH DEVELOPMENT<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-700b94b elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"700b94b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>CRNZ is also committed to high quality coaching and coach development.
