EOC PRESIDENT EOC Newsletter EOC Newsletter No. 201 April 2020 MESSAGE FROM THE EOC PRESIDENT Dear colleagues, The value of staying connected while isolated during the COVID-19 pandemic cannot be understated. I am pleased to report that, following our first EOC Executive Committee meeting held by teleconference this month, the Olympic Movement of Europe is as close and interconnected as ever. Our day-to-day business, while certainly altered by the crisis, nevertheless continues unabated. There is nothing we were doing before the pandemic that we are not doing now in terms of our daily operations, and my sincere appreciation goes out to all the staff and administration at sports organisations across Europe for the excellent work you are doing in this regard. Staying connected and sharing best practices was one of the goals of our recent survey of the 50 European National Olympic Committees, which you can read more about in this newsletter and on the EOC website. The survey has allowed us to monitor and evaluate the impact of COVID-19 on sports around the continent. While the situation from country to country differs greatly depending on the local impact of coronavirus and other factors, two problems are universal: a lack of income due to the absence of sports events and limited access to sports facilities for elite athletes. Respondents provided us with a number of best practices, in particular with regard to assisting top athletes with their training routines, and I call on our ENOCs to continue sharing such knowledge for the benefit of all sports bodies in Europe. The COVID-19 pandemic is gradually improving, and we are finally seeing some liberalisation in terms of sanctioned sports activities. But sport, like healthcare, falls under the sovereignty of national governments and the EOC is aware that whatever we do at the continental level may not be applicable to, or endorsed by, every country in Europe. So our advice for now is that we all begin by participating in national programmes designed to survive the crisis. I once again commend Europe’s Olympic Movement stakeholders for the solidarity you have shown and your willingness to come to the assistance of those in greater need. Likewise, should any ENOC find itself in a precarious position, contact us and we will do everything we can to help you. Please stay healthy and strong. Best regards. Janez Kocijančič EOC President 1 EOC NEWSLETTER April 2020 EOC EOC ExCo discusses measures to ease impact of COVID-19 crisis on NOCs The European Olympic Committees (EOC) Executive Committee (ExCo) held its second meeting of 2020 on 29 April via teleconference to discuss a number of important matters, in particular the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on sport and measures to deal with the fallout. Chaired by EOC President Janez Kocijančič, the meeting focused primarily on the current state of sport in Europe and ways to assist the 50 European National Olympic Committees (ENOCs). The ExCo pledged its full support for the policies and guidance laid out in a letter sent earlier in the day by International Olympic Committee (IOC) President Thomas Bach. “As the stewards of the Olympic Movement in Europe, we need to stand strong and united behind the policies of the IOC for the benefit of sport and our athletes,” said President Kocijančič. “Let us be clear that if any ENOC is endangered, they should contact the EOC and we will do everything we can to help them in this time of crisis.” Read more EOC unveils results of COVID-19 survey The EOC has unveiled the results of a flagship survey aimed at assessing the impact of the current COVID-19 crisis on Olympic Movement stakeholders in Europe. Forty-five of the 50 European National Olympic Committees (ENOCs) took part in the survey, which was conducted from 6 to 14 April 2020 in collaboration with European management consulting firmMethodos Group. “As the umbrella body for the National Olympic Committees of Europe, it is our duty to assist our members where possible,” said EOC Secretary General Raffaele Pagnozzi. “By surveying the ENOCs, we were able to get a clearer idea of what is working well – and to share those best practices – while also figuring out what their greatest needs are and how we can help.” Read more 2 EOC NEWSLETTER April 2020 EOC celebrates World Earth Day by becoming partner of Green Sports Europe hub The 50th anniversary of #EarthDay was celebrated on 22 April 2020. Since 1970, increased focus has been put on safeguarding the planet, and the EOC is grateful for these efforts. All sports are dependent on the health of our environment, and as part of the ongoing efforts to protect the planet, the EOC has pledged its support for a “Green Sports Europe Hub” programme. This green partnership of European sports stakeholders is being led by the Confédération Européenne de Volleyball (CEV) and the Surfrider Foundation Europe (SFE), and is supported by eight other European sports organisations. The objective is to create a pan-European hub on sport and the environment to help the sport sector identify its needs and potential actions for a greener and more sustainable future. In endorsing this initiative, EOC President Janez Kocijančič pledged the support of the EOC by offering to help disseminate the project’s legacy among the European National Olympic Committees and to a wider European audience and beyond. “We are confident that this partnership has sufficient knowledge and expertise to successfully implement, execute and disseminate the project.”Read more PIOTR NUROWSKI – Ten years of tribute A talented sportsman, an enlightened President of the Polish Olympic Committee, but above all a great friend of European sport, Piotr Nurowski lost his life just over 10 years ago, on 10 April 2010. Nurowski died in a plane crash in Smolensk, Russia, that also took the lives of the President of the Polish Republic and several personalities from Polish politics and sports. A few months after his death in 2010, the EOC decided to pay tribute to Nurowski and commemorate his life by creating an award bearing his name for the best young European athletes. To this day, the Piotr Nurowski Prize celebrates the memory and legacy of the former President of the Polish NOC, a great man of Olympism, who constantly encouraged young athletes to pursue careers in elite-level sport and inspired future generations to adopt healthy lifestyles based on the Olympic principles and values. Read more 3 EOC NEWSLETTER April 2020 Digital celebration of International Day of Sport for Development and Peace 2020 The EOC has celebrated the International Day of Sport for Development and Peace (IDSDP) through a digital mobilisation. Established by the United Nations (UN) in 2013 and supported by the IOC since 6 April 2014, the IDSDP has even greater value today as the global sporting community is facing serious challenges due to the COVID-19 outbreak. “On this special occasion, I would like to send my best wishes to the Olympic family of Europe, including our athletes, coaches and officials,” said EOC PresidentJanez Kocijančič. “Right now, the sports world has stopped, but I am fully confident it will kick off again stronger than ever.” In celebration of the IDSDP on 6 April, the EOC Athletes’ Commission (AC) and the National Olympic Committees of Europe joined the “Peace and Sport” digital campaign and shared messages of global solidarity through sport. Read more EUROPEAN YOUTH OLYMPIC FESTIVAL BANSKÁ BYSTRICA 2021 – Summer EYOF moved to 2022 to avoid clash with Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games The XVI Summer European Youth Olympic Festival (EYOF) Banská Bystrica 2021 has been moved to 2022 in order to avoid a clash with the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020, being postponed to 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The decision was taken in agreement with the Organising Committee and approved by the EOC Executive Committee, during its last meeting held in videoconference on 29 April 2020. The Summer EYOF, originally to be held in Slovakia from 25 to 31 July 2021, coincided with the new Olympic Games dates - 23 July to 8 August. “We have had successful negotiations with the EOC on a possible postponement and various options have been considered,” noted Peter Korčok, Executive Director of the EYOF 2021 Banská Bystrica Organising Committee. “The move of the EYOF to 2022 seemed to be the most advantageous solution.” “The EOC has consulted all the European Federations (EFs) involved to find the best possible new dates for the EYOF,” said EOC Sports Director Peter Brüll. “We have had a very constructive dialogue with the EFs and I strongly believe we will be able to organise an excellent event in Slovakia in 2022.”Read more 4 EOC NEWSLETTER April 2020 ENOCs AZERBAIJAN – Digital campaigns and OCEP programme to keep athletes and fans engaged The NOC of Azerbaijan has undertaken a number of engaging campaigns with the intention of maintaining good spirit and optimism among athletes and fans. Video competitions promoting sport and physical activity at home have attracted many participants, and the NOC is working closely with national sports federations and other sports institutions to find solutions to the problems inherent to the COVID-19 pandemic. The NOC of Azerbaijan recently accepted the NOC of Kazakhstan’s #stayathome #beactive challenge, sharing it with its stakeholders both in and out of the country. “What books do athletes read while staying at home?” “What movies do athletes watch while staying at home?” “What meals do athletes cook while staying at home?” and many other interesting topics have been shared by the NOC of Azerbaijan on its social media accounts. Inspired by the positive reaction of the general public as well as various stakeholders, the NOC is planning to strengthen the cooperation with local TV and radio stations, as well as with other media channels for wider impact.

  • The Rio Review the Official Report Into Ireland's Campaign for the Rio 2016 Olympic and Paralympic Games
    SPÓRT ÉIREANN SPORT IRELAND The Rio Review The official report into Ireland's campaign for the Rio 2016 Olympic and Paralympic Games RIO 2016 REVIEW Foreword The Olympic and Paralympic review process is an essential component of the Irish high performance system. The implementation of the recommendations of the quadrennial reviews has been a driver of Irish high performance programmes for individual sports and the system as a whole. The Rio Review process has been comprehensive and robust. The critical feature of this Review is that the National Governing Bodies (NGBs) took a greater level of control in debriefing their own experiences. This Review reflects the views of all the key players within the high performance system. Endorsed by Sport Ireland, it is a mandate for the NGBs to fully implement the recommendations that will improve the high performance system in Ireland. There were outstanding performances in Rio at both the Olympic and Paralympic Games. The Olympic roll of honour received a new addition in Rowing, with Sailing repeating its podium success achieved in Moscow 1980, demonstrating Ireland's ability to be competitive in multiple disciplines. Team Ireland has built on the success of Beijing and London, and notwithstanding problems that arose, Rio was a clear demonstration that Ireland can compete at the very highest levels of international sport. Sport Ireland is committed to the ongoing development of the Sport Ireland Institute and adding to the extensive facilities on the Sport Ireland National Sports Campus. These are real commitments to high performance sport in Ireland that will make a significant difference to Irish athletes who aspire to compete at the top level.

In horrendous conditions, they fought out the U18 5000m track walk at the Australian Schools Championships in Cairns last Friday evening. For the record, Gwyllym won with 22:11.7 (a PB of 1:34) and Corey was second with 22:13.8 (a PB of 1:21). The rain intensified as the evening progressed, but saved its worst for the U18 5000m walks, the last events of the evening. Sloshing through the puddles and almost lost in the heavy sheets of rain, the U18 boys showed strength and resilience that belied their age. The contrast could not be greater. Corey has had 33 races this year and had set PB after PB as the year has progressed, culminating in his 10km best of 46:58 at Fawkner Park last weekend. Gwyllym had recorded only 5 RWA walking races this year and had not competed over any significant distance since 21st July. But they both produced the goods when it counted most.

  • Congress Abstract Book
    XIIth Congress of the International Society of Bone Morphometry October 16-19, 2012 Sheraton Minneapolis West Minneapolis, Minnesota www.conference.ifas.ufl.edu/isbm October 16-19, 2012 Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA Welcome to the XIIth Congress of the International Society of Bone Morphometry! ISBM is a non-profit organization that has its origins in a series of workshops on bone morphometry, the first of which was held in Ottawa in 1973. The core mission of ISBM is to emphasize the importance of traditional morphometric techniques in the field of bone research. ISBM also embraces new technologies that result in refinements and advances in bone morphometric analyses, and facilitates education and training in all aspects of bone morphometry. Many preclinical and clinical studies utilize bone morphometry as an essential technique to assess changes in bone structure and levels of bone formation and resorption in response to a variety of influences such as hormones, cytokines, growth factors, mechanical loading, and bone-active drugs. Bone morphometry is also essential for skeletal phenotyping of knockout and transgenic mice. The scientific program consists of invited talks by prominent investigators in the areas of osteoporosis treatments, bone imaging, bone cancer, bone fracture healing, bone biomechanics, and bone implants. These talks will be followed in each session by oral presentations of the most highly-scored abstracts. Poster presentations will also be available for viewing throughout the Congress.
