Athletics New Brunswick Launches New Athlete Development and Support Program (ADSP)
Athletics New Brunswick is pleased to announce the launch of our new Athlete Development and Support Program (ADSP)—a structured initiative designed to help athletes reach their highest potential. This program provides both direct and indirect support, offering training and competition opportunities to assist ANB athletes in competing at the highest levels.
The ADSP consists of four teams: Development, Performance, High Performance, and Elite. Athletes must apply to be part of the program using the form below and must meet specific performance standards. Successful applicants will be enrolled in the program for the calendar year. **Please note that athletes must have had an ANB membership in good standing during the time of performance**
Applications will be reviewed on a monthly basis, and teams will be officially named in December for the following year. If the application is successful, athletes are considered part of the ADSP teams from the date of their confirmation until the team declaration the following year.
