    UNiversaLITY AND deveLopiNG couNTries Thirdly, the introduction of snowboarding has created a totally new breed of skier. Snowboarding is easier to grasp than conventional ski- ing and has captured the imagination of young people around the world. CHIHARU IGAYA Fourthly, the rapid development of communications systems has also IOC representative • International Olympic Committee been a major contributing factor behind the increasing universality of winter sports. A large proportion of the world’s population now has access to electronic media, and this has played a significant role in fur- ther disseminating the excitement and exhilaration of winter sports. As a result of this exposure to winter sports, there are a growing number of people eager to try out the sports for themselves. And those who are really hooked even move to countries where they can spend their time practising and enhancing their skills. A prime example of this is the case of the athlete from Guam who competed at the Sarajevo Olympic Winter Games. As everyone knows, Guam is a small island located in the middle of the Pacific Ocean where there is no snow. However, this athlete was so attracted by the sliding sport that he decided to move to the United States and dedicate the next few years of his life to achieving his dream of competing in the Olympic Winter Games.

  • Skiing NATIONAL COLLEGIATE MEN’S and WOMEN’S
    Skiing NATIONAL COLLEGIATE MEN’S AND WOMEN’S Highlights Colorado wins 17th skiing crown; Buff s ice wire-to-wire win in rugged slalom conditions: In a dominant wire-to-wire win, Colorado locked up its 17th NCAA skiing title at Stowe Mountain Resort in Stowe, Vt. It’s the sixth NCAA crown the Buff s have secured during head coach Richard Rokos’ 20-year tenure, and their fi rst since 2006. Excited to once again be out from under the runner-up status it has achieved each of the past three years, Rokos noted the diff erence between winning and second is often just a bit of luck. “We came here to win, and that’s the same goal that we have every time we come to the championships,” Rokos said. “The diff erence this year is that we were able to stay healthy and all our alpine skiers fi nished both races -- most of them cleanly. You have to get lucky, you know, no matter how well you’re prepared.” The Buff s tallied an impressive 831 points throughout these championships, 80.5 points better than runner-up Utah, and 188 points ahead of third-place Dartmouth. Colorado rocketed to a commanding 46-point lead on the fi rst day of races March 9, nearly doubled it to 84.5 on March 11, and -- though relinquishing a sliver of that margin -- coolly secured the title with solid fi nishes by its alpine squads in diffi cult conditions at the slalom races March 12. After tons of snow, then rain, then more snow during the week, it was destined to be a bumpy ride on Stowe’s Mainstreet track, and there was indeed carnage in both men’s and women’s races.

  • 2014 Winter Olympic Competing Nations ALBANIA
    2014 Winter Olympic Competing Nations We list below detailed historial Olympic information for every IOC Member Nation that has previously competed at the Olympic Winter Games and that will compete in Sochi, as of 27 January 2014. There appear to be 88 qualified NOCs that have met IF quota requirements as of 24 January, and have accepted them (the previous record for a Winter Olympics is 82 in 2010 at Vancouver). Unfortunately, after reallocation of some quotas, only the skiing federation (FIS) has published the final quotas as of 26 January. We have tried to list below the sports for which each NOC has qualified but there is a small chance, with reallocations, that there may be minor differences in the final allocation by sport. There are seven nations that will compete in Sochi that have never before competed at the Olympic Winter Games – Dominica, Malta, Paraguay, Timor-Leste (East Timor), Togo, Tonga, and Zimbabwe. Their factsheets have been published previously on olympstats.com – see http://olympstats.com/2014/01/23/new-winter-olympic-nations-for-sochi/, which came out on 23 January. One problem nation is listed below and that is DPR Korea (North). They have not qualified any athletes for Sochi. They had the 1st and 2nd reserves for pairs figure skating but those do not appear to have been chosen by final reallocation of quota sports by the International Skating Union (ISU). However, yesterday (26 January), DPR Korea has petitioned the IOC for redress to allow them to have Olympic athletes compete in Sochi. So they are included below but it is unknown if they will compete.
