On Saturday, at the AOC’s annual general meeting in Sydney, the silver medallist from the men’s 200 metres at the 1968 Mexico City Olympics will receive the Order of Merit alongside Raelene Boyle, Shane Gould, Ian Thorpe and Cathy Freeman. The Order of Merit is the AOC’s highest honour. It is awarded at the discretion of president John Coates and his executive to those who have provided ‘‘exceptional merit’’ in the sporting world, through either personal achievement or by having a broader influence.

  • Keynote Address by the Hon John Fahey Ac President World Anti-Doping Agency to the Anzsla Conference, Melbourne Thursday, 16
    KEYNOTE ADDRESS BY THE HON JOHN FAHEY AC PRESIDENT WORLD ANTI-DOPING AGENCY TO THE ANZSLA CONFERENCE, MELBOURNE THURSDAY, 16 OCTOBER, 2008 Thank you for the opportunity to share some time and some thoughts with you this morning on a subject which has occupied a large slice of my life over the past 12 months. It is not hard to recall the reason why I was attracted to a volunteer position with an International organisation that is based in Montreal, which is almost as far as you can get from my home town of Bowral in NSW. I have always been attracted to the concept of fair play. It is the very essence of sport, if not the most fundamental principle governing our lives. Doping is a triple threat: to athlete safety, to sport integrity, and to greater public health. I am old enough to recall some of the sporting events at international level during the seventies and eighties where the build of athletes, both male and female, did not resemble the stereotype for the event and where all of us had suspicions something was happening that had nothing to do with normal training and strength-building exercises. Many of us in those days believed something was radically wrong. I still vividly recall the comparison in physique between Australia’s Raelene Boyle and the powerful, muscular East German Renate Stecher as they lined up for the start of the 200 metre Final in Munich in 1972. But despite the suspicions and concerns of millions of sports followers around the world, nothing was done by officialdom to address what appeared to be an obvious problem.

  • National Winner History of Sport Ashwin Ramanathan
    National winner History of sport Ashwin ramanathan Christ church grammar school Peter Norman: a defining moment Peter Norman: A Defining Moment Ashwin Ramanathan A defining moment in history is an act that stands out as a significant event in the shaping of our world. A single moment that will change the lives of future generations forever. One that is remembered for the lasting effects that it brought upon us. Effects that are embedded into our memories. What Peter Norman did and stood for as a person deserves to be treated as defining, yet in his own country, this is little acknowledged. Even at the time many of his fellow countrymen were not aware of the significance of the moment for the world and for Norman. Eric Pearce, the Australian flag bearer at the Closing Ceremony and member of the hockey team commented, “The black power salute caused a ripple with the Australian athletes in the village but was soon forgotten. It was only regarded very briefly by myself and other competitors.” (Pearce, 2011) He became a part of a historical force that revolutionized the lives of millions of men, women and children but this came at a great personal cost. His actions on the 16th October 1968 were not only a part of a defining historical moment when politics, sport and race converged, but were also set to define his future: a future that was characterized by rejection and personal, physical and mental decline. On 16th October 1968 at the XIX Summer Olympic Games in Mexico, Tommie Smith won the gold medal, and John Carlos the bronze, in the 200m final.

  • How the Black Power Protest at the 1968 Olympics Killed Careers
    https://www.history.com/news/1968-mexico-city-olympics-black-power-protest-backlash UPDATED: OCT 19, 2018 ORIGINAL: FEB 22, 2018 How the Black Power Protest at the 1968 Olympics Killed Careers ERIN BLAKEMORE It’s an iconic image: Two athletes raise their fists on the Olympic podium. The photograph, taken after the 200 meter race at the 1968 Summer Olympics in Mexico City, turned African-American athletes Tommie Smith and John Carlos from track-and-field stars into the center of a roiling controversy over their raised-fist salute, a symbol of black power and the human rights movement at large. But look in the photo and you’ll see another man as well: silver medalist Peter Norman, a white Australian runner. Norman didn’t raise his fist that day, but he stood with Smith and Carlos. Though his show of solidarity ended up destroying Norman’s career, the three athletes’ actions that day would be just one in a line of protests on the athletic stage. 2 U.S. athletes Tommie Smith, center, and John Carlos raise gloved hands skyward during the playing of the Star Spangled Banner after Smith reCeived the gold and Carlos the bronze for the 200 meter run at the Summer Olympic Games in MexiCo City, 1968. AP Photo Smith and Carlos, who had won gold and bronze, respectively, agreed to use their medal wins as an opportunity to highlight the social issues roiling the United States at the time. Racial tensions were at a height, and the Civil Rights movement had given way to the Black Power movement.
