The Spanish de Vela reveals the strategic lines facing Paris 2024

The RFEV's commitment begins by structuring athletes into various level groups and coordinating their work plans. In this way, the Olympic candle will be able to interact with the children and youth candle to increase the overall level of the Spanish candle, while ensuring the generational relief
The Olympic machinery of the Royal Spanish Sailing Federation for the Games of Paris 2024 is now at full performance. Xisco Gil, technical director, and Aier Fernández, Olympic preparation director, have developed a strategic sports plan whose pillars are teamwork, the optimization of training and high-level technicians.
The main problem of this campaign is that, as Xisco Gil says: Paris has to be prepared in less than three years. Normally, after the Olympic Games there was a period of about a year in which less-level athletes were preparing to reach the Olympics, and this is a phase that does not exist this time. The Olympic Regatists in Tokyo obviously have a lot of advantage, they are reengaging with a major formation.
To optimize this short preparation time, Aier Fernández is betting on two-week training and one-week rest blocks, instead of the three consecutive weeks that were done so far. The reason for this change lies, according to the DPO, in that... reducing to two weeks, the overall training volume drops very little, but greatly decreases the likelihood of injury.
Another of the basic issues of this cycle is to find the best training places on our shores, as well as to have a headquarters in the vicinity of Marseille, city that will host the sailing in the next JJOO. With regard to training in Spain, Fernández points out that... We have a super rich coast in terms of weather conditions and we will choose to train those points that offer us the most similar to those that we will meet in the various international, European and world races... qThey are only two years and five months old and we already have athletes placed in the Top 10 world in seven out of ten classes. If we don't get lost and manage this situation well, we can be talking about many possibilities of getting to Paris with medal options.. "
The set of technicians that will prepare the Olympic crews is certainly another pillar of this strategic plan, along with the multidisciplinary team. Both are being finalized and they seek personalized and high-level attention to the regatists.
