  • History of the Commonwealth Games
    GAMES HISTORY INTRODUCTION In past centuries, the British Empire’s power and influence stretched all over the world. It started at the time of Elizabeth 1 when Sir Francis Drake and other explorers started to challenge the Portuguese and Spanish domination of the world. The modern Commonwealth was formed in 1949, with ‘British’ dropped from the name and with Logo of the Commonwealth many countries becoming independent, but Games Federation choosing to remain part of the group of nations called the Commonwealth. The first recorded Games between British Empire athletes were part of the celebrations for the Coronation of His Majesty King George V in 1911. The Games were called the 'Festival of Empire' and included Athletics, Boxing, Wrestling and Swimming events. At the 1928 Olympic Games in Amsterdam, the friendliness between the Empire athletes revived the idea of the Festival of Empire. Canadian, Bobby Robinson, called a meeting of British Empire sports representatives, who agreed to his proposal to hold the first Games in 1930 in Hamilton, Canada. From 1930 to 1950 the Games were called the British Empire Games, and until 1962 were called the British Empire and Commonwealth Games. From 1966 to 1974 they became the British Commonwealth Games and from 1978 onwards they have been known as the Commonwealth Games. HISTORY OF THE COMMONWEALTH GAMES 1930 British Empire Games Hamilton, Canada 16-23 August The first official Commonwealth Games, held in Hamilton, Canada in 1930 were called the British Empire Games. Competing Countries (11) Australia, Bermuda, British Guiana (now Guyana), Canada, England, Newfoundland (now part of Canada), New Zealand, Northern Ireland, Scotland, South Africa and Wales.

  • Commonwealth Games: Friendly Rivalry
    Parliament of Australia Department of Parliamentary Services RESEARCH PAPER SERIES, 2013–14 6 November 2013 Commonwealth Games: friendly rivalry Dr Rhonda Jolly Social Policy Section Executive summary • Elite athletes from the Commonwealth meet every four years to compete in the multi-sport event known as the Commonwealth Games. • While the Commonwealth Games boasts many similarities to the Olympics, it differs in the more relaxed and ‘friendly’ spirit of competition, which is a highlight of most events. • The spirit of friendship has not always prevailed, however, and there have been serious rifts between Commonwealth nations that have manifested themselves in boycotts of the Games. While these have threatened at times to dissolve, or seriously weaken the Commonwealth, solutions have always been found and the Commonwealth and its Games have endured. • Australia was one of a group of nations that first participated in competition between Britain and its colonies in 1911; it has participated in the Games in all its forms since that time. It is acknowledged as the most successful of the Commonwealth nations in this sporting competition—winning over 200 more medals than its nearest rival. • Australian cities have hosted the Games four times. While there have been some hiccoughs in the staging of each event—some social, and some economic—Sydney, Perth and Brisbane have all received accolades and Melbourne was praised as ‘the best’ following the 2006 Games. • In 2018 Australia will host another Commonwealth Games—on Queensland’s Gold Coast. • This paper looks back at how the Games came to be, Australia’s experience of staging the event and contemplates how the Gold Coast will deal with that legacy and surmount perceived and unexpected complications that will inevitably surface before the 2018 Games’ Opening Ceremony.

  • Australian Identity, the Press and Major International Sporting Events
    Dr Rachel Payne Edith Cowan University, Western Australia [email protected] Play the Game, Iceland. PhD thesis launch: Australian Identity, the Press and Major International Sporting Events It is often said that sport has an almost divine influence on Australia’s identity; that it is a “super-religion” transcending class, gender, race and ethnicity (Dunstan, 1976, p.2). Of all the major international sporting events held in Australia none have generated as much national interest as Olympic or Commonwealth Games. In total, Australia has hosted two Olympic (Melbourne, 1956; Sydney, 2000) and four British Empire/Commonwealth Games (Sydney British Empire Games, 1938; Perth British Empire and Commonwealth Games, 1962; Brisbane Commonwealth Games, 1982; Melbourne Commonwealth Games, 2006). Although Australians are not overtly patriotic in their day-to-day lives, these major, or “mega” events evoked a shared national sentiment among the general public. One reason for this is that Australians look to events like the Olympic and Commonwealth Games as international “grandstands” (Davison, 2002a; 2002b), or audiences to whom they can promote themselves. In a broader sense, my PhD thesis looks at Australian newspaper depictions of Australia’s national identity at two Olympic and two Commonwealth Games held in Australia from 1956 to 2000. Using both quantitative and qualitative analyses, my thesis shows how Australia represented itself, its Indigenous athletes and other Commonwealth nations’ athletes over 44 years. Australia’s press, or print media, offers valuable insights into the ways Australians see themselves, the ways they see others, and the ways they believe others see them. Daily sports reports printed in Australia’s newspapers play an important role in strengthening links between sport and Australian identity.

The thesis may not be reproduced elsewhere without the permission of the Author. NEW ZEALAND'S RESPONSE TO THE CRISES IN AFRICA. LOVE MNGOHOL CHILE M.Sc. B.Sc. (Hons) Dip. Ed. A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Massey University Albany, Auckland. New Zealand. 1996 D M. Ph. Thesis Love Chile NEW ZEALAND'S RESPONSE TO THE CRISES IN AFRICA Abstract The thesis seeks to explain the motivation for New Zealand's response to the sociopolitical and economic crises in Africa. New Zealand's response is conceptualised to include 'foreign aid' as well as the non-traditional forms of international assistance such as peacekeeping and monitoring, political and moral support on issues such as apartheid. Qualitative research methodology is used to critically examme both the official bilateral response and the response of the non governmental organisations (NGOs). In the context of existing theory, New Zealand's response to the crises in Africa has significant elements of both the fu nctional utility approach (McKinley and Little 1977) and the conventionalist framework (Gordenker 1976). Official policy espouses both, although the balance between the pursuit of foreign policy interests and altruistic response to the crises is difficult to attain. The thesis concludes that while New Zealand's political and moral response was an important factor in the resolution of the crisis of apartheid, the overall official response to the socioeconomic and developmental crises is ineffective.

  • 1982 Cabinet Minutes
    1982 Cabinet Minutes Selected highlights Queensland State Archives Department of Science, Information Technology, Innovation and the Arts Queensland State Archives Brisbane River development Marina proposals At a meeting held in July Cabinet members authorised lease negotiations to begin for the construction of a marina and tourist complex on the western (river) side of the access road to the new port facilities on Fisherman Islands, at the mouth of the Brisbane River (Sub. 34123; Dec. 38151). In August Cabinet approved ‘in principle’ the redevelopment of the Kangaroo Point Shipyard area into prestige housing, a hotel and a marina (Sub. 34230; Dec. 38268). The possible inclusion of the Yungaba Immigration Depot site and other adjacent pieces of land was mentioned. Two weeks later Cabinet members further considered the proposed marina on reclaimed land near the mouth of the Brisbane River, deciding that a Special Lease would be issued for the site (Sub. 34329; Dec. 38372). Dredging operations Cabinet members discussed dredging in the Brisbane River at a number of meetings. They agreed in February to stop issuing dredging permits in the area near Karana Downs (Sub. 33007; Dec. 37041) The Department of Harbours and Marine advised that sand and gravel resources were being exploited faster than they were replenished. Gravel deposits were expected to be ‘substantially depleted’ within 10 years, but sand reserves were expected to last for ‘many decades’. At several meetings from February onwards Cabinet also discussed the rezoning of a block of land at Fig Tree Pocket (Sub. 33142; Dec 37062). The land, situated directly across the river from a sand and gravel works, was to be protected from noise by an earth bund and dense vegetation planting (Sub.

  • Xii Commonwealth Games Village
    Life at the .--XII COMMONWEALTH GAMES VILLAGE ___GRIFFITH UNIVERSITY _____ Brisbane, 1982 This book has been produced by Griffith University to say "thank you" to all the athletes and team officials who made the University their home; the thousands of volunteers, soldiers, police, University staff and students who made the Village such a success; and to the people of Brisbane without whom the Friendly Games would not have been possible. I am much honoured to be invited to write a foreword to this book. The "Commonwealth Games" is a united effort with the Governing Bodies of Sport united in a Commonwealth Games Association in each country, and all united in the Commonwealth Games Federation. To me, the centre piece of the Commonwealth Games has always been the Games Village itself. For some weeks every four years, athletes from all over the Commonwealth live in pleasant surroundings of mutual friendship , where training and wide-ranging discussion are the order of the day. From these experiences, links are formed that live in the memories of these young athletes for the rest of their lives. From my own Commonwealth Games experience as a competitor and later as General Manager and Chairman of the Federation, there is no doubt in my mind that Griffith University was the venue of the finest Commonwealth Village one could possibly imagine. The modern efficiency of its buildings set in superb surroundings, and the smiling crispness of the meticulous organisers and their assistants, made it an experience to remember. The Federation of fifty-seven Commonwealth countries is deeply appreciative and grateful to Griffith University for all that was made available in those momentous days of the 1982 Commonwealth Games.

  • History of the Games
    History of the Games Introduction The first Commonwealth Games were held in 1930 in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. Bobby Robinson, a major influence within athletics in Canada at the time, finally implemented the event that had been talked about amongst Commonwealth nations for over thirty years. Eleven countries with 400 athletes in total participated in the first Commonwealth Games. $30,000 was provided by the City of Hamilton to these nations to help cover travelling costs. Since then, the Games have been conducted every four years except for 1942 and 1946, due to World War II. From 1930 to 1950 the Games were known as the British Empire Games, then the British Empire and Commonwealth Games until 1962. From 1966 to 1974 they took on the title of British Commonwealth Games and from 1978 onwards they have been known as simply the Commonwealth Games. A governor-general represents her in the country. The Growth of the Games While other Games around the globe have been founded on geographic or climatic factors such as the Asian, Pan Am, African Games and Winter Olympics, the Commonwealth Games has been founded on history. Unique characteristics of the Commonwealth Games include being the only Games which shares a common language. All athletes and officials can converse with each other in English, creating an atmosphere that has led to the Commonwealth Games being long known as the "Friendly Games". The bonds of the Commonwealth Games help to encourage and support the pursuit of health and fitness in each of the member countries and provide an inspiration for youth to strive for excellence.
