In the Paralympic community we operate at both ends of the spectrum.
Our mandate is to field the Canadian Paralympic team going to the Paralympic Games, and to bring the best of the best to that arena. The coaches at that level of course are very elite, and are very focused on gold medal performance.
At the other end of the spectrum, we're just trying to get children with disabilities out into the playground. Certainly the messaging there is to encourage recreation, to encourage sport, and to give them an opportunity to create friends on the playing field. It's a completely different system.
I understand exactly what you're saying. We're working, I think collectively, our hardest to ensure that those volunteer recreational coaches are conveying the right messages in the right tone, and providing the right support for our children.
