    Sleeman facilities ramped up for skiers IThe Courier-Mail Page 1 of2 The Courier-Mail eM iPad section Sport Front Page Sleeman facilities ramped up for skiers • by: Alex Murdoch • From: The Courier-Mail • December 03, 2010 11 :OOPM Source: AP AUSTRALIA'S best aerial skiers, including reigning gold medallist Lydia Lassila, will soon call Brisbane home. The Sleeman Aquatic Centre at Chandler will soon boast a multimillion-dollar national water-jump training centre funded jointly by the state and federal governments. Queensland Sports Minister Phil Reeves said the facility, announced today but due for completion mid-next year, would house six ski ramps up to 24m in height at olle end of a 4m deep Olympic pool. The ramps alone would cost $4 million. "Currently there is no high-performance training centre in the southern hemisphere ... so this will be the only facility in the world accessible for 12 months of the year," he said. But the facility, which was originally approved by the Howard government, almost didn't happen after being cut by former Prime Minister Kevin Rudd. It took a personal appeal from Lassila after her gold medal win in Vancouver earlier this year to turn the tide. http://www.couriermai1.com.au/ipad/sleeman-facilities-ramped-up-for-skiers/story-fn... 19/06/2012 Sleeman facilities ramped up for skiers IThe Courier-Mail Page 2 of2 Federal Sports Minister Mark Arbib said yesterday aerial skiers were among Australia's most successful female Olympic athletes and it was important this continued.

  • Freestyle Skiing
    COMPILED BY : - GAUTAM SINGH STUDY MATERIAL – SPORTS 0 7830294949 Freestyle Skiing - Overview Freestyle Skiing is a game that needs perfect balance of body and mind while taking a jump from the inrun to the maximum possible height to win. This also includes performing various types of flips and twists or other stunts depending on the category. Though the game seems difficult by the looks of it, one can become an expert with perfect coaching and guidance. This tutorial will guide you in understanding the basic mechanics. The rider (player) has to sail on an ice surface with the help of jumping skis on a ramp like structure. The aim is to perform aerial flip flops and spins. To add to the difficulty level, sliding rails and boxes are also used. The match is played in both men and women category. History Inception of this adventurous journey started in Norway in year 1808, when Ole Rye jumped over a height of 9.5 metres. The world’s 1st ski jumping competition was held at Ofte, Norway in the year 1866. Sondre Norheim won that championship and he was believed to be the father of modern ski jumping. After World War 1, a new technique was developed popularly known as Kongsberger Technique that helped Sepp Bradl of Austria in achieving a 101 metre jump in 1936. THANKS FOR READING – VISIT OUR WEBSITE www.educatererindia.com COMPILED BY : - GAUTAM SINGH STUDY MATERIAL – SPORTS 0 7830294949 The concept of aerial skiing was introduced for the 1st time in the 1950 Olympics by Stein Eriksen.

  • Australian Performances at the Winter Olympics: Maintaining the Momentum
    77 Australian Performances at the Winter Olympics: MAINTAINING THE MOMENTUM Richard Baka is a Senior Lecturer in the College of Sport and Exercise Science and an Associate of the Institute of Sport, Exercise and Active Living at Victoria University. He co-edited (with Rob Hess) On the Periphery: New Perspectives on the Olympic Movement (2013). Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT: This historical investigation traces Australia’s performance in the Winter Olympic Games and shows how the nation was a late bloomer, having won all twelve of its medals over the last twenty years. Reasons for the recent success are attributed to: increased financial commitment; the cultural importance of sport; the spin-off effect of Summer Olympic Games’ success; improved infrastructure support; the new off-setting cycle of Winter and Summer Games; the targeted approach of concentrating on events with the most likelihood of success; and a certain amount of luck. The Australian Olympic Committee, many experts and media commentators declared the Australian performance in Sochi reasonably successful, with three medals won. However, there was disappointment expressed by the Australian Sports Commission, which implemented its new Winning Edge program in 2012 and expected slightly better results. The Sochi Games produced some unfortunate publicity for the Australian team, including an athlete funding row and a lack of team cohesion. Recommendations for improvement include a review of how team success is evaluated and the establishment of an Australia Olympic House at future Games, a feature which could minimize controversies. Based on the Sochi medal results as well as the fifteen top-ten finishes achieved by Australian athletes, the outlook for the 2018 Winter Games looks positive.

    ATHLETES BULLETIN THE NEWSLETTER OF THE IOC ATHLETES’ COMMISSION — MARCH 2012 N°19 CHAIRMAN’S FOREWORD OLYMPIC NEWS INSIDE THE COMMISSION IOC ATHLETE CAREER PROGRAMME ATHLETES BULLETIN N°19 LOOKING TO LONDON FOREWORD BY FRANK FREDERICKS, IOC ATHLETES’ COMMISSION CHAIRMAN We will all look back on 2012 as a fantastic year of sport and it really could not have got off to a better start than it did in Innsbruck for the 1st Winter Youth Olympic Games (YOG). Innsbruck 2012 will be remembered for the iconic venues, the incredible welcome and the stunning backdrop of the Tyrolean Mountains. We saw incredible performances and were wowed by the talent of the young athletes who were competing. I am sure we will see many of them on the Olympic stage itself in years to come. The Athletes’ Commission was highly visible in Innsbruck and many of its members served as Athlete Role Models (ARMs) throughout the 10 days of the YOG. I remember myself when I was starting off in athletics, I looked up to © IOC the great Olympians of the time - people who were at the peak of their careers, who had achieved so much and in whose steps I desperately wanted to follow. The effect that meeting a sporting hero can have on a young athlete is incalculable. It’s an incredible opportunity for youngsters to learn from people who once were in their shoes but through hard work and perseverance have made it to the top of their sport. The ARMs were present throughout the Youth Cover: 4-time Olympian & Captain of Finland, Saku Koivu celebrates Athletes’ Village, making themselves available for meetings, casual drop-ins and a win over the Czech Republic chats over a hot drink.
