1. PSI’s community sport agenda should focus on “performance” (',personal best) and be “expert driven.”
2. The community sport pillar should use the Canadian Sport for Life (',LTAD) and Long-term Coach Development (',LTCD to be developed) models as its foundation.  Possible applications include:
• Active Start – PSI could focus on parental education (',teaching parents to focus on fun activities for kids, basic skills and the maturation and development levels of children)
• FUNdamentals – PSI could develop testing and innovative programs for kids and coaches based on fundamental movement skills (',agility, balance, coordination, speed).
• Learning to Train – multi-sport camps for children and youth could be developed.  Sport information could be offered through the PSI website, newsletters, sport fairs, etc.
• Training to Train – PSI could offer an athlete profiling service (',talent ID) and sport specific and foundational training camps.  It could also offer sports psychology, biomechanics, physiology courses, etc. for coaches.
• Training to Compete – PSI could offer high performance sport specific training camps for athletes and performance testing, video-analysis and application of theory to practice courses for coaches.
• Training to Win – at this level, PacificSport will focus on provincial and national athletes and coaches.  Athletes and coaches from non-targeted sports may also access expertise, programs and services on a fee-for-service basis.
• Active for Life – PSI could offer training, testing and assessment services for mature athletes, courses on aging, injury rehabilitation, officiating, volunteering and event management, etc.
3. PSI’s community programs and services should be science-based, athlete and coach-centred and performance tested:  Areas to be considered include:
• Injury prevention, pre-hab and re-hab clinics
• Fitness testing
• Physical literacy:  the ABC’s
• Athlete profiling (',talent ID) – biomechanical, physiological, attitudinal
• Field testing
• Sport referral services
• Sport system gap analysis – identifying/filling voids in performance sport programs
• Sport advocacy (',sponsorship, marketing, promotion, volunteer & event management)
• Sport information centre (',communication vehicles like PSI website, newsletters, etc. could provide a community resource for exercise, health and wellness information)
• Coach and Officials development, support and applied research (',coaching certification, Aboriginal coaching models, etc.)
• Recovery and regeneration programs and services
• Nutrition counselling and programs
• Rental of sport training facilities
4. PSI needs to have a multi-sport vs. sport-specific focus.
5. Development and implementation of a Long-term Coach Development model that integrates with the Long-term Athlete Development model.

General comments:

• Sport schools appear to be a natural feeder system for the PSI and the Camosun College athletic program.
• PSI activities need to generate funds that will contribute to the Institute’s sustainability.
• PSI should provide bursaries for those who cannot afford the fees and scholarships for those with exceptional talent.
• It is important that PSI avoid the impression of elitism as it focuses on performance.  The PSI needs to be “inclusive” of those who share the Institute’s philosophy.
