Long-term goal setting
Examples of long-term goals could be:
- winning a district tournament
- being selected for a district or national training squad
- winning a national title
These goals are unlikely to change unless they are achieved ahead of schedule. They are typically set for tournaments or selections a year in advance but can be as long as three years depending on the target.
