Ontario High Performance Sport Initiative

What is OHPSI?
The OHPSI program was designed to support a comprehensive provincial high performance sport system that allows for sustained success of athletes and coaches at the very highest levels of international sport. The goal of the OHPSI program is to identify and support Ontario athletes who are best capable of achieving future international success on senior national teams in targeted winter and summer Olympic/Paralympic and Pan/Para Pan Am Games sports.

OHPSI athletes are identified by Swim Ontario upon achieving a Swimming Canada On Track performance pathway time as follows:

1. Based on athletes age -  18 & under based on Year of Birth.
2. Performances done in an approved competition, in an Olympic event, in LCM.

Tier 1:  Athletes are swimmers who achieve either a Gold medal or Podium Pathway On-Track time

Tier 2:  Athletes are athletes who have been identified after achieving an On-Track Podium Pathway time

Services, and programming vary for Tier 1 and Tier 2 identified athletes and are consultative within the coach/athlete tandem.
