Review

The Finnish Olympic Committee had set a goal of 12 medals for the 2010 Winter Olympics, and considered the result of 5 medals far weaker than expected. By discipline, it summarized in its annual report: "The most positive results were achieved in ice hockey, snowboarding and figure skating, whereas the performances in cross-country skiing, ski jumping, Nordic combined and biathlon were clearly below the expected."[1]

The central conclusions drawn by the Olympic committee on coaching issues on which to take action towards 2014 were:[2]

  • The role and leadership of head coaches were weak.
  • The competence of the coaching of national sports federations was inadequate.
  • The ratio of decentralized and centralized exercise was distorted.
  • Know-how in mental training was weak.
  • The emphasis of ski maintenance has elevated in winter sports.
