My best performances came at these meets, probably due to being the right time of year. I found it difficult to train through the summer for the disabled meets because I had to work. My best indoor performance was at the indoor Tribune Games in Winnipeg in 1981 with a jump of 2.08m. Boldt has seen many changes in the disability sport movement in the last twenty years. The quality of the training and the dedication of the athlete has really improved.
People take things a lot more seriously especially at the international level.
The nurturing of new athletes and new blood has been lacking. Boldt is also disturbed that Federal funding was only made available in the last two years of his 18 year career as an athlete. I applied for Federal funding many times and was turned down for one reason or another. Maybe CASA didn't give me the right forms or they didn't have the right connections in Ottawa. Its not as if we didn't give anything back to the country either.
