LTAD Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The LTAD (Long-Term Athletic Development) framework by ST is a comprehensive model designed to guide youth athletic development from early childhood through adolescence. It is divided into four distinct stages tailored to specific age groups: Ages 0-5 focus on foundations of physical literacy; Boys 6-9 and Girls 5-8 emphasize basic movement literacy; Boys 9-12 and Girls 8-11 concentrate on building technique; and Boys 12-16 and Girls 11-15 focus on building the engine, including sport-specific skills and aerobic base development.

 

Each stage targets key skills progressively. The earliest stage develops balance, locomotor, and ball skills (ABCs). The second stage introduces KGBs (kinesthetics, gliding, buoyancy, striking) and RJT (running, jumping, throwing). The third stage builds fundamental movement skills, general sports skills, strength, endurance, flexibility, and SAQ (speed, agility, quickness). The final stage shifts to sport-specific skills, aerobic base, and resistance training after Peak Height Velocity (PHV).

 

This framework is ideal for coaches, physical education teachers, and sports organizations designing age-appropriate training programs. It emphasizes fun, games, and progressive challenges to foster long-term athletic participation and performance.
