10.04.07 - Track – Olympic Track Assessment Camp

The CCA will run an Olympic Track Assessment camp on October 30 and 31 to provide an
opportunity for athletes to achieve the standards to participate in the 2008 Beijing Olympic
Track Plan. Assessment will be in timed events only. The camp will take place at the
Burnaby Velodrome, with a pre-registration deadline of October 22. Registration should be
sent via email to the National Team Training Centre – Victoria to the attention of Louise
Hodgson-Jones at lhjones@pacificsport.com.

The time standards defined in Schedule B are based on an analysis of times posted at World
Cup and World Championship events and must be met in order to participate in the first
two World Cups, keeping in mind the maximum number of entries Canada can enter in any
given event. Zach Bell, Martin Gilbert, Gina Grain, Ryan McKenzie and Travis Smith, as
athletes already in the performance pool, have been pre-selected to the first two World Cups
in the events noted below and are not subject to assessment for those events at this camp,
but nonetheless are strongly encouraged to attend.
