Advantages
• The advantage of the overall developing continuum is
that it help every type of person have access to sport
from just begin to being a world class athlete.
• The Sports England set is good because it helps with
working with athletes who take part in sport
• The world class programme proves the other schemes
are successful, and works with more elite athletes to
help them achieve in their chosen sports.
Disadvantages
• The overall developing continuum can not be completely
successful because access to schemes may be limited,
due to limited funding by local councils.
• The disadvantage of Sport England’s set up is that
people at the foundation level are overlook.
• The world class programme disadvantage is that it only
works with world class athletes so athletes struggling to
reach the excellance stage from performance miss out.
