    DOSSIER FOR CANDIDATURE 2 DOSSIER FOR CANDIDATURE Turin has always been a leading figure of excellence in the world of Italian sport and its athletes and teams have achieved success and reached important milestones at national and international level in every discipline, just as the Italian medal is worn by numerous champions in our country: Livio Berruti, Pierino Gros, Franco Arese, Stefania Belmondo, the Damilano brothers… Thanks to outstanding sportsman Primo Nebiolo, Turin is the city where the Universiadi were born, and it will come as no surprise to learn that three editions have been held here. th The 20 Turin Winter Olympic Games 2006, which were a great success and met with enthusiasm Borrelli Photo Franco on the part of the whole of Turin society, demonstrated the city’s expertise in hosting and enhancing to the full great sporting events. Indeed Turin boasts an extensive network of sports associations, which involve hundreds of thousands of people in basic sports activities. It is for these two fundamental reasons that Turin’s candidature as European Capital of Sport in 2015 holds meaning and credibility. This is a candidature that highlights the multifaceted nature of a city that has been able to transform itself over the years, to turn from an industrial centre into a university city, and one which invests in research and innovation, tourism, culture and technology. In addition, Turin has always been recognised as a city attentive to welfare and particularly sensitive and committed to policies promoting social integration

  • Turning Point for FAI's World Air Games As Dubai Delivers
    Sportcal turns 25 Date published by Sportcal: 19/01/2016 Turning point for FAI’s World Air Games as Dubai delivers eye-catching and compact event Air Sports By Tim Smith The fourth FAI World Air Games took to the skies of Dubai, United Arab Emirates from 1 to 12 December last year, the first time the event was held outside of Europe. In what could be described as a turning point for the event and for FAI, the World Air Sports Federation, Dubai delivered a compact, city-based games, where the 23 air sports disciplines shared the same arenas and athlete experience. Although individual air sport disciplines compete regularly in separate world championships, the World Air Games is the unique occasion in which these are brought together in one event. Due to air space and venue restrictions, previous FAI World Air Games have tended to take place across airfields close to smaller towns or in the countryside, with disciplines spread across regions. However, in 2015 the organisers placed four of the six venues inside the city, meaning the majority of disciplines experienced competing against the Dubai backdrop for some or all of their competitions, while air shows integrated into the event (such as performances from UAE Air Force’s Al Fursan aerobatics team, pictured) could reach a wider, city-wide audience. This, in turn, led to impressive images coming from the competitions and air shows, promoting both the destination and the air sports themselves. Almost 2,000 congregate for first games in six years Dubai 2015 took in 10 different air sports, with 23 sporting disciplines and a total 41 medal events.

  • 50S Bulo Article OCR'd
    “ BULAWAYO SPEEDWAY and CYCLE SPEEDWAY in the 1950's ” b by Graham Radue (Reproduced from 'Rhodesian Worldwide' magazine of 3.1.2010, for Speedway-SA.com) Reading through Frances Grant's interesting account of motorcycle Speedway in Rhodesia in 1970 brought back many happy memories of the sport which was originally introduced to Bulawayo in 1953. Bulawayo was always famous for its road racing motorcycle stars such as Mick Gammon, Ken Robes, Charlie Harrison, Bertie Hall, Gary Hocking, Jim Redman, Alan ('Buddy") Harris and Bruce Beale to name a few, so it was not surprising then that Speedway would also find a firm foothold in the city. The Rhodesian Speedway Association (a non-profit making organization under the chairmanship of prominent Bulawayo eye specialist, Dr. J. C. (Jack) Greenwood) was formed and they organized the first cinder track meeting for the Bulawayo Agricultural Society and the South African Speedway Riders Association - it was held under floodlights at the Bulawayo Showgrounds and some 12,000 spectators turned up to watch the inaugural meeting which was billed as "the World's most thrilling sport." The meeting was opened by Lt. Col. N.B. Everard, General Manager of Rhodesia Railways, and there was a ceremonial entry to the arena of the specially constructed JA P speedway machines, riders and track officials, plus renderings by the Bulawayo Caledonian Society. Thrills and spills aplenty and flying cinders were enjoyed by the crowd and the smell of "Castro' R" filled the air. That first meeting saw a test match arranged between riders from the Union of South Africa and Rhodesia.
