partnerships with "foreign" soccer organizations & coaches who can help with the development & growth of Jamaican coaches and youth players, and NOW I'm suggesting the same for the JAAA, for Jamaica's middle & long distance coaches & runners.......Looking at the improvement & performances of the U.S. men's & women's middle & long distance runners at the Olympics -
MEN
800m – 2nd & 8th
1500m – 1st & 8th
3,000m Steeplechase – 2nd, 7th & 8th
5,000m – 2nd, 5th & 11th
10,000m – 5th, 14th &19th
Marathon – 3rd, 6th & 33rd
WOMEN
800m – 8th
1500m – 3rd & 4th
3,000m Steeplechase – 3rd, 8th & 11th
5,000m – 11th
10,000m – 6th, 11th & 33rd
Marathon – 6th, 7th & 9th
Also "foreign" runners, such as Mo Farah (winner of the 5,000m & 10,000m), have U.S. coaches.
It's obvious that U.S. middle & long distance coaches are doing something RIGHT.
