The main objective of the Junior World Track Championships is to provide a developmental opportunity to a competitive group of identified Canadian track cyclists. The Canadian group has the potential to finish with a Top 8 performance in the Team Pursuit.
As a feeder into the Elite Track Program, these World Championships are a crucial step in an athletes’ developmental pathway. In 2014, the primary focus remains tightly aligned with those of the Elite Track Program, which in this case will be the Team Pursuit and Omnium: the two track endurance presented at the Olympic Games.
