Head Coach of the Trail Track and Field. Club, Willi Krause, sees great potential in both athletes; it’s just a matter of training and the proper coaching. “They both started from scratch and now they are both medal con- tenders,” Krause said. Each athlete has their favorite events, but to be a true track competitor they have to be good in all aspects of competition Krause said he and other coaches atthe club try to encourage all 30 of the clubs members to train for all events “We work on all events because you never Know what the real talents are hiding in those lit tle bodies,”’ Coach Krause said. ‘The chance of developing a champion is always there, every village has a champ, it's just a mat ter of developing one. There's so much talent out there.” Krause said The club starts working on speed training at an early age because Krause says it’s one of the hardest things to develop in athletes. “If you don’t start your speed training early it is very dif ficult to work on later.” All the serious track athletes need to set their goals high and aim for them. “They (the ath letes) need to have big dreams. Krause said The Trail Track and Field Club has been around since 1959, when Krause started the club. “This ts the only club in the Kootenay’s affiliated with the Canadian Track and Field Association,” Krause said. In order to Compete in the events the athletes need to tram with a affiliated clut The big goal of th to produce a B.C. Higt champion, then we car developing a Canadian ch on,” Krause said In addition to Krause, the club uso has coach Denny Horan, and five assistants who are training to become coaches. “We try to open their (assistants) eye “ see what makes a SUN SPORTS PHOTO / John Van Putten lete,”” Krause said. According to Krause, the par- ents deserve lots of the credit There is a lot of training involved in track and field. Par. ents need to be 100 per cent behind the athletes.” In addition to the moral support from parents athletes also need financial support.
