Barnstorming Frenchmen: the Impact of Paris Université Club's US Tours
This is the version of the chapter accepted for publication in Sport and Diplomacy: Games within Games published by Manchester University Press https://www.manchesteruniversitypress.co.uk/9781526131072/ Accepted version downloaded from SOAS Research Online: https://eprints.soas.ac.uk/31196/ “Barnstorming Frenchmen: The Impact of Paris Université Club’s U.S. Tours and the Individual in Sports Diplomacy” By Dr. Lindsay Sarah Krasnoff1 Introduction The young men of Paris Université Club (PUC), France's elite basketball team of the mid-1950s, rocked back and forth across the chilly Atlantic waters. It was supposed to be a joyous five-day journey from Le Havre to New York. Instead, most players remained in bed, too seasick to leave their bunks aboard the America. Nobody ate in the dining room; instead sandwiches were placed on cabin floors so that the Frenchmen could roll off, eat, then roll back onto their berths without having to stand up. Thus began the trip by the first French basketball team to the United States after 1945. In a series of exhibition games, they barnstormed their way through the Midwest and mid-Atlantic. Despite the ominous start, PUC's December 1955-January 1956 tour was a success on many levels. Athletically, it introduced the team to the U.S. style of play and the place basketball—and sports in general—occupied in American culture. The experience also opened the Frenchmen's eyes to what the United States was really like for, with the exception of PUC's American player and voyage organiser Martin Feinberg, it was the first time that any of them set foot on U.S.

World Cup France 98: Metaphors
The final definitive version of this article has been published as: 'World Cup France 98: Metaphors, meanings, and values', International Review for the Sociology of Sport , 35 (3) By SAGE publications on SAGE Journals online http://online.sagepub.com World Cup France ‘98: Metaphors, Meanings and Values Hugh Dauncey and Geoff Hare (University of Newcastle upon Tyne) The 1998 World Cup Finals focused the attention of the world on France. The cumulative television audience for the 64 matches was nearly 40 billion - the biggest ever audience for a single event. French political and economic decision makers were very aware, as will be seen, that for a month the eyes of the world were on France. On the night of July 12th, whether in Paris and other cities or in smaller communities all over France, there was an outpouring of joy and sentiment that was unprecedented - at least, most people agreed, since the Liberation of 1944. Huge numbers of people watched the final, whether at home on TV or in bars or in front of one of the giant screens erected in many large towns, and then poured onto the streets in spontaneous and good-humoured celebration. In Paris, hundreds of thousands gathered again on the Champs Elysées the next day to see the Cup paraded in an open-topped bus. For all, the victory was an unforgettable experience. An element that was commented on by many was the appropriation by the crowds of the red, white and blue national colours: manufacturers of the French national flag had never known such demand since the death of General de Gaulle.

Football in France Global Sport Cultures Eds Gary Armstrong, Brunel University, Richard Giulianotti, University of Aberdeen, and David Andrews, The University of Maryland From the Olympics and the World Cup to extreme sports and kabaddi, the social significance of sport at both global and local levels has become increasingly clear in recent years. The contested nature of identity is widely addressed in the social sciences, but sport as a particularly revealing site of such contestation, in both industrialising and post-industrial nations, has been less fruitfully explored. Further, sport and sporting corporations are increasingly powerful players in the world economy. Sport is now central to the social and technological development of mass media, notably in telecommunications and digital television. It is also a crucial medium through which specific populations and political elites communicate and interact with each other on a global stage. Berg publishers are pleased to announce a new book series that will examine and evaluate the role of sport in the contemporary world. Truly global in scope, the series seeks to adopt a grounded, constructively critical stance towards prior work within sport studies and to answer such questions as: • How are sports experienced and practised at the everyday level within local settings? • How do specific cultures construct and negotiate forms of social stratification (such as gender, class, ethnicity) within sporting contexts? • What is the impact of mediation and corporate globalisation upon local sports cultures? Determinedly interdisciplinary, the series will nevertheless privilege anthropological, historical and sociological approaches, but will consider submissions from cultural studies, economics, geography, human kinetics, international relations, law, philosophy and political science.

Sport Facing the Test of Cultural Diversity. Integration And
SPORTS POLICY AND PRACTICE SERIES Democratic management of cultural diversity has become a priority for the Council of Sport facing the test of cultural diversity Europe member states. Sport is no exception to this concern. Faced with the diversity of both participants and spectators, sport becomes a vehicle for intercultural dialogue through its educational and socialising role. This work lays out exchanges of experience in intercultural dialogue through sport. It helps put into perspective the concepts of “intercultural dialogue” and “integration” as applied to sport and evoked in social and political debates in Europe. The Enlarged Partial Agreement on Sport (EPAS) contributes to the development of European research on education through sport involving researchers from different countries. This publication has been co-ordinated and directed in co-operation with the Agency for Education through Sport (APELS). William Gasparini is a professor at the University of Strasbourg where he directs a research laboratory specialising in social sciences in sport. He is the author of numerous works on sport in France and in Europe and is a member of the scientifi c and technical committee of APELS. Aurélie Cometti obtained her PhD in social sciences of sport from the University of Loughborough (United Kingdom). She is an offi cial scientifi c and technical representative for the Anovasport programme of APELS. The Enlarged Partial Agreement on Sport (EPAS) is an agreement between a number of Council of Europe member states (32 as of 1 January 2010) which have decided to co-operate in the fi eld of sports policy. As an “enlarged” agreement, the EPAS is open to non-member states.

McCLOY THE NEGRO IN FRANCE UNIVERSITY OF KENTUCKY PRESS Copyright© 1961 by the University of Kentucky Press Printed in the United States of America by the Division of Printing, University of Kentucky Library of Congress Catalog Card No. 61-6554 FOREWORD THE PURPOSE of this study is to present a history of the Negro who has come to France, the reasons for his coming, the record of his stay, and the reactions of the French to his presence. It is not a study of the Negro in the French colonies or of colonial conditions, for that is a different story. Occasion ally, however, reference to colonial happenings is brought in as necessary to set forth the background. The author has tried assiduously to restrict his attention to those of whose Negroid blood he could be certain, but whenever the distinction has been significant, he has considered as mulattoes all those having any mixture of Negro and white blood.

It is believed that the Romans played games that had similar styles to various modern sports like Soccer, Cricket, Baseball, Field Hockey, and Rugby. The Romans used these games and competitions as a form of exercise and entertainment and from what has been discovered it was an important aspect of their culture.
