It is about bringing people together; it is about tolerance and respect; and it is about cooperation and striving to build a better, more harmonious world through our young athletes, sports leaders and volunteers. This is why the coming year will be of great significance to everyone connected with the Olym- pic Council of Asia, as it offers two major OCA multi-sport games plus a host of other meetings and events throughout our five zones. The 4th Asian Indoor and Martial Arts Games in Incheon, Korea, from June 29 to July 6 will serve as a high-profile test event for the 17th Asian Games the following year. The Asian sports family will need to work together at Incheon 2013 to ensure a smooth and successful Asian Games in 2014 and provide the best conditions for the athletes and officials. In August we will hold our second Asian Youth Games in the beautiful and historical city of Nanjing, China. Just like our inaugural AYG in Singapore in 2009, the Nanjing AYG will set the scene for the IOC’s Youth Olympic Games the following year. These two youth festivals in Nanjing will provide a wonderful opportunity for the local people to learn more about Asia and the world – and for the visitors to learn more about Nanjing and China. This experience will leave behind a long-lasting social legacy for the people of Nanjing and contribute to the Olympic Values of Excellence, Friendship and Respect. As I said at the beginning of my message, the Olympic Movement is about much more than sport – and we can demonstrate and celebrate this through our events in 2013 and beyond.

  • History of Philippine Sports
    Philippine Sports History Articles Collection Compiled by Andrew Pirie ATFS Statistician Articles by Various Writers Baguio Teacher's Camp & History of Sports Baguio BAGUIO TEACHERS CAMP As I intend to head to the teachers camp this weekend I have done some background research into the camp as I was curious as how old it really is and as a fledgling historian I wanted to know a bit about its background. Here is what I found. The link to the full article is below I have just picked out the important parts. Teachers’ Camp opened its doors for its first season on April 6, and closed on May 30, 1908. A total of 217 adults and 24 children attended the camp. Lecturers were invited from universities and government offices from both the Philippines and the United States. There were regular lectures on General Anthropology and General Ethnology, Genetic Psychology and Present Day Educational Tendencies, Government of the United States and Contemporaneous Problems in Government, Heredity and Spanish. *From reading this they had a variety of higher level courses offered at the beginning of the 20th Century in a transitional period for the Filipino people. Teacher's Camp Fortunately, it was not all academic in Teachers’ Camp. Teachers’ Camp was also a vacation resort for teachers. The Camp successfully addressed a problem most American educators had while working in the Philippines: American educators did not have an easy time working here in the country. In most cases, these foreigners were assigned to schools where there weren't any other Americans for miles.

  • Recreation, Sport, Culture and the Arts
    Chapter 20 Recreation, Sport, Culture and the Arts Hong Kong offers no lack of sports, cultural and recreational opportunities for its hard-working populace. The wide variety of activities, ranging from international sports and arts events to community programmes, leaves people of all ages and abilities spoilt for choice. The Home Affairs Bureau coordinates government policies on recreation, sports, culture and heritage. Organisations such as the Sports Commission and Hong Kong Arts Development Council help the government draw up these policies. The Sports Commission advises on all matters relating to sports development and oversees committees on community sports, elite sports and major sports events. The Leisure and Cultural Services Department (LCSD), an executive arm of the bureau, provides services to preserve Hong Kong’s cultural heritage, enhance its physical environment, and foster cooperative interaction between sports, cultural and community organisations. The department also organises exhibitions, sporting events and cultural performances. Recreation and Sports The department develops and coordinates the provision of quality recreational and sports facilities for leisure enjoyment, including parks, landscaped open spaces, sports grounds, playgrounds, sports centres, holiday camps, water sports centres, swimming pools and beaches. It also organises and supports a wide variety of recreational and sports programmes to promote community sports, identify sporting talent and raise sporting standards. It works closely with the District Councils, the National Sports Associations under the auspices of the Sports Federation and Olympic Committee of Hong Kong, China, District Sports Associations and schools to promote sport for all. In 2017, some 940,000 people took part in activities organised at 24 holiday camps and sea activity centres run by 11 non-governmental organisations subvented by the LCSD.
