We are particularly interested in their preparation and achievements, because this group is the future of the sport. We analyzed their specific training loads for the different means and made comparison to established training programs. Also, we analyzed the tendency in competition results in recent years and found out positive improvement, proven with new National records. We established that running volume for speed is 4 times bigger in Unified programs than what is accomplished in training for the age group. Volume for general endurance is 10 times bigger than what athletes usually do. Additional means like vertical and horizontal jumps, in our opinion are too elevated in the official program documents. In conclusion we deem that preparation has different proportions compared to the few official Unified training programs and actualization is needed.
