Although South Africa has lured a few sportsmen, women, and national teams with some international standing through the payment of inflated appearance fees and exceptional hospitality, South Africa continues to have limited access to international sports exchanges. International action against apartheid sport has intensified over the period under review. Furthermore, no international sports body which excluded or suspended South Africa from membership has reversed its decision despite the r4gime's heavily financed propaganda efforts. However, the r4gime has continued with its generous funding of apartheid sports, inter alia, through a series of tax concessions to private sector sponsors, that is South African and/or transnational companies. Rugby The International Rugby Board (IRB) is one of the few international sports federations which continues to accommodate apartheid sports and sanction international competitions with teams from South Africa without any reservation.l/ Australian Rugby Union is the only member of the International Rugby Board which refuses to entertain sports exchanges with South Africa. In January 1984, a South African schoolboy's team toured Wales, United Kingdom, with the full approval of the Welsh Rugby Union (WRU). In protest, the United Kingdom's Minister in Charge of the Welsh Office, Mr. Nicholas Edwards, and the Minister in charge of sports in Wales, Mr. John Stradling Thomas, as well as opposition Labour Party parliamentarians boycotted Welsh rugby matches. Mr. Neil Kinnock, the leader of the Labour Party and a rugby enthusiast, stated that "the only way we are going to get fairness in rugby football in South Africa is by denying them access". He said that he was boycotting the matches "with real regret" but that the need for human justice took precedence over his love for rugby. 2/ The most serious violation of the United Nations resolutions against apartheid sport was committed by the English Rugby Football Union (ERFU) when it decided, by 44 votes to six, to send its national team to South Africa. There was widespread opposition to the tour. The United Kingdom's Minister of Sport, Mr. Neil McFarlane, had several meetings with the English Rugby Football Union trying to dissuade them from visiting South Africa. The Special Committee against Apartheid urged the rugby authorities to decline the invitation as well. Appeals were also made by the Organization of African Unity (OAU); the Supreme Council for Sport in Africa (SCSA); the Commonwealth Secretary- General; the leader of the British Labour Party; the British Trades Union Congress (BTUC); the president of the British Anti-Apartheid Movement, Archbishop Trevor Huddleston; various anti-apartheid groups in South Africa; and several international and national organizations and individuals. Despite all appeals the ERFU team, although badly depleted in strength by withdrawals, including that of the team captain Peter Wheeler, toured South Africa in May and June 1984. The Commonwealth Games Council for England also failed in its constitutional obligation under the Code of Conduct of the Commonwealth Games Federation by not taking effective measures in trying to prevent the tour of South Africa by the English Rugby Football Union. The statements of the Chairman of the Council, in fact, led the authorities of the English Rugby Football Union to believe that the Council did not object to their tour of South Africa. Other Commonwealth Games councils are reported to be closely following the actions of the British Council as regards British sports contacts with South Africa, with a view to considering appropriate action. In June 1984 the Welsh Rugby Union voted by 306 votes to 62 to continue its links with South Africa despite numerous protests and appeals, including one from the Chairman of the Special Committee against Apartheid, to cease contacts with apartheid sports. Mr. Myrddin John, secretary of the Welsh Commonwealth Games Council, wrote to the Welsh Rugby Union expressing his Council's disappointment and saying that it "was a most unfortunate decision." 3/ In the same month, the French Rugby Federation, which cancelled its 1983 tour to South Africa on the insistence of the French Government, announced that it would tour South Africa in the near future. The New Zealand Rugby Football Union (NZRF) has not announced yet its decision regarding a proposed visit to South Africa in 1985.4/ South African propaganda against sports boycott The South African r4gime has further expanded its propaganda efforts to undermine the boycott of apartheid sport. Racist sports bodies in South Africa continue to enjoy a fair amount of support among British sports administrators. Their administrators make frequent visits to London to publicize apartheid sport. They hold regular press conferences in London and seem to get "invited" to press luncheons and other events which they use as a platform to justify their case. They are initiating new projects in London, hoping to inflict serious damage to the apartheid sports boycott campaign. Apartheid sports authorities decided to open a permanent office in London and appointed a former cricketer, Eddie Barlow, as its director. He will act as "spokesman, negotiator and organizer" for South African sport. Barlow stated that his "primary long-term aim would be to see South Africa accepted into the sporting world". 5/ In other words, the purpose of this office is to encourage violations of the Gleneagles Agreement to which the Government of the United Kingdom is a party. As of the publication of this register, he was waiting for the issuance of a work permit from the Government of the United Kingdom in order to open the office. In February 1984, the white South African Olympic Committee (SAOC) urged the British Minister for Sport to visit South Africa, hoping that he would influence other Commonwealth countries to annul the Gleneagles Agreement. In March 1984, just before the decision by the English Rugby Football Union to tour South Africa, the South African Minister of Sport paid a special visit to London and told the press that the rugby tour would assist multiracial sport. He did not mention that his party was committed to racial segregation in sport. 6/ Furthermore, South Africans regularly call upon the services of a British Member of Parliament, Mr. John Carlisle, to defend them in the United Kingdom.

Lawrence Rowe ‘He was a hero here’ IT’S EASY to feel anonymous in the Fort Lauderdale sprawl. Shopping malls, car yards and hotels dominate the eyeline for miles. The vast concrete expanses have the effect of dissipating the city’s intensity, of stripping out emotion. The Gallery One Hilton Fort Lauderdale is a four-star monolith minutes from the Atlantic Ocean. Lawrence Rowe, a five-star batsman in his prime, is seated in the hotel lounge area. He has been trading off the anonymity of southern Florida for the past 35 years, an exile from Kingston, Jamaica, the highly charged city that could no longer tolerate its stylish, contrary hero. Florida is a haven for Jamaican expats; it’s a short 105-minute flight across the Caribbean Sea. Some of them work at the hotel. Bartender Alyssa, a 20-something from downtown Kingston, is too young to know that the neatly groomed septuagenarian she’s serving a glass of Coke was once her country’s most storied sportsman.

  • 2016 Bienvenido
    MICHELIN DOSSIER DE PRENSA MotoGP 2016 BIENVENIDO El retorno de Michelin es incontestablemente la gran novedad de MotoGP para la temporada de 2016. Con el paso de neumáticos de 16,5 a 17 pulgadas, previsto por el nuevo reglamento técnico, los equipos y pilotos deberán adaptarse a la nueva monta, al mismo tiempo que aprenden a conocer y explotar las evoluciones técnicas de sus motos. La cooperación entre todos los actores de la disciplina durante el programa de pruebas Michelin, a lo largo de 2015, es el elemento crucial para que todo el mundo pueda estar preparado para la nueva temporada. Ausente de los Grandes Premios de moto desde que se instauró la regla de fabricante de neumáticos único en 2009, Michelin se prepara para reencontrarse con una competición en que el Grupo ha dejado su huella a través de los años. Con 360 victorias y 26 títulos de Campeón del Mundo, Michelin posee un rico y glorioso pasado en esta disciplina. Del slick a la bigoma, pasando por la tecnología radial, las innumerables evoluciones tecnológicas que ha aportado Michelin lo convierten en pionero en la competición de motos. “Estamos orgullosos de que Michelin regrese a MotoGP en el cuarenta aniversario de nuestra primera victoria en el Campeonato del Mundo de 500 CC con Barry Sheene”, comenta Pascal Couasnon, director de Michelin Motorsport. “Michelin es una referencia en carreras de moto y, tras casi una década de ausencia, es una gran emoción que podamos volver como Proveedor Oficial de Neumáticos de la categoría reina”. “La profunda implicación de Michelin en los deportes del motor necesita el desarrollo de tecnologías innovadoras y de neumáticos competitivos.
