Salam Sejahtera bagi kita semua, Puji dan syukur kami panjatkan kehadirat Tuhan Yang Maha Esa, karena hanya atas karunia dan rahmat-Nya, penyusunan Naskah Akademik Rancangan Undang-Undang tentang Keolahragaan dapat diselesaikan dengan baik dan lancar. Naskah Akademik ini disusun sebagai dasar pertanggungjawaban ilmiah terhadap penyusunan Rancangan Undang-Undang (RUU) tentang Keolahragaan sekaligus guna memenuhi persyaratan dalam pengajuan rancangan undang-undang sebagaimana ditentukan dalam pengaturan tentang Pembentukan Peraturan Perundang- Undangan. Dalam upaya perwujudan pencapaian tujuan nasional, diperlukan peran dan keberadaan negara untuk mewujudkan kesejahteraan dan kemajuan bangsa melalui penyelenggaraan keolahragaan karena olahraga dalam kehidupan bermasyarakat merupakan bagian dari aktifitas hidup manusia. Oleh karena itu, peran olahraga dalam kehidupan bernegara, berbangsa dan kehidupan bermasyarakat menjadi sangat penting dan memiliki peran yang strategis. Kemudian penyelenggaraan keolahragaan harus dilakukan dengan secara profesional dalam suatu kegiatan yang terencana, terpadu dan berkelanjutan melalui suatu pengaturan yang dapat menjawab perkembangan hukum dimasyarakat. Berdasarkan hal tersebut, Komisi X DPRRI menugaskan Badan Keahlian DPR RI untuk menyusun konsep awal Naskah Akademik (NA) dan Rancangan Undang-Undang (RUU) tentang Keolahragaan. Penugasan tersebut tidak terlepas dari tujuan bernegara yang tertuang di dalam alinea ke-empat pembukaan Undang-Undang Dasar Negara Republik Indonesia Tahun 1945 (UUD NRI 1945) yaitu memajukan kesejahteraan umum, yang diuraikan lebih lanjut di dalam Pasal 23 UUD NRI 1945. 2 NA RUU Keolahragaan 10 Juli 2020 Akhirnya kami menyampaikan ucapan terima kasih kepada seluruh anggota Tim Penyusunan Naskah Akademik Rancangan Undang-Undang tentang Keolahragaan, yang telah bekerja keras menyelesaikan tugasnya dengan baik. Terima kasih juga kami sampaikan kepada semua pihak yang telah memberikan sumbangan saran dan pemikiran hingga tersusunnya Naskah Akademik Rancangan Undang-Undang tentang Keolahragaan ini. Harapan kami, Naskah Akademik Rancangan Undang-Undang tentang Keolahragaan ini bermanfaat bagi bangsa dan masyarakat Indonesia.

Latar Belakang Masalah Olahraga telah menjadi bagian dari aktivitas hidup manusia sehari-hari. Bahkan olahraga berkembang menjadi gaya hidup bagi mereka yang ingin memperoleh manfaat tertentu dari olahraga. Beberapa dekade terakhir olahraga juga telah menjadi industri global dengan keuntungan ekonomi yang sangat tinggi. Perputaran uang yang sangat fantastis dalam industri olahraga, mendorong pebisnis modal besar untuk ikut menjalankan bisnis dalam industri olahraga. Kejuaraan olahraga juga sering diselenggarakan pada berbagai tingkatan. Selain untuk mengejar atau mengukur prestasi, motif ekonomi juga menyertai pada kejuaraan olahraga. Pencapaian prestasi olahraga di tingkat internasional setidaknya dapat menjadi barometer kemampuan dan keberhasilan suatu negara dalam memajukan bidang keolahragaan. Tidak dapat dipungkiri, negara peraih medali tertinggi dalam kejuaraan tingkat internasional memiliki kelembagaan keolahragaan yang baik, penyelenggaraan pendidikan keolahragaan yang tersistem, pola rekrutmen yang terprogram dengan baik, pembinaan yang terencana hingga di masa usia emas, penghargaan yang wajar, serta industri olahraga yag maju. Australia dapat menjadi referensi negara yang berhasil dalam upaya memperoleh medali di kejuaraan nasional. Sejak tahun 1981 membuat program pelatihan terpadu untuk atlet elit menghadapi Olimpiade dengan nama Australian Institute of Sport (AIS). Pada saat prestasi atlet elit Olimpiade turun pada tahun 2012 dan 2016, Australia mencoba bangkit dengan membuat

  • February 2007 I Just Returned from an Exciting Ten Days in Salt Lake City at the 16Th Winter Deaflympics (Deaf Olympics). I Coor
    February 2007 I just returned from an exciting ten days in Salt Lake City at the 16th Winter Deaflympics (Deaf Olympics). I coordinated the volunteer massage therapists for the Games. This was a perfect opportunity for me to utilize skills from both of my professions, as I have been a sign language interpreter for more than twenty years, and a massage therapist in private practice for almost three years. The Deaflympics began as the International Silent Games in Paris in 1924 and has become the largest international sporting event behind the Olympics. The International Olympic Committee officially recognized the Deaflympics in 1955. Deaf people, because they could not hear starting guns, whistles, and the like, could not compete fairly with hearing people at the Olympics. And, because the IOC considers them able-bodied, they were not allowed to participate in the Paralympics. As a result, the Deaflympics were given official status. Deaf athletes, by organizing their own Games, can also enjoy easy communication with each other, even if they come from other countries. Many countries' sign languages share some linguistic features with each other. Many foreign deaf people coming to the U.S. know at least some American Sign Language, so that plus the use of gestures, and the mere desire to communicate makes it rather easy to hold conversations with deaf people from all over the world! The Deaflympics is one way international friendships begin and a great way to strengthen one's sense of pride in Deaf culture. Salt Lake City, the location of the 2002 Winter Olympics, has the infrastructure in place to easily accommodate hundreds of participants, volunteers, and fans.

  • CHAPTER-4 Physical Education and Sports for CWSN
    CHAPTER-4 Physical Education and Sports for CWSN (Children with Special Needs) 4.1 AIMS & OBJECTIVES OF ADAPTED PHYSICAL EDUCATION Adapted Physical Education is a science of developing, implementing, and monitoring a designed physical education instructional programme for an individual with a disability, based on a comprehensive assessment, to give the learner the skills necessary for a lifetime of rich recreation, leisure and sport experiences to increase physical fitness and wellness. Adapted physical education is physical education that is individualized and specially designed to address the needs of students with disabilities who require adaptations or modifications to be physically active, participate safely, and make progress toward the standards for Health, Safety, and Physical Education. In simple words, we can say the physical education program designed for individuals with disabilities is called adapted physical education. The program is adapted to meet the needs of each student through modifications and accommodations. According to Auxter, D., Pyfer, J. & Huettig, C. “ Adapted physical education is the art and science of developing and implementing a carefully designed physical education instructional program for an individual with a disability, based on a comprehensive assessment, to give the individual the skills necessary for a lifetime of rich leisure, recreation, and sport experiences”. Adapted physical education is used to emphasise the importance of understanding the scientific bases of human development as it bring into relations to teaching appropriate concepts and practices in the adapted physical education program which will serve to maximize the quality of life among individuals with disabilities. Adapted physical education is clear that practices that influencing exercise, fitness, diet and nutritional status can significantly impact the quality and duration of life of an individuals with disabilities.

    STRATEGIC PLAN 2010-2013 International Committee of Sport for the Deaf 528 Trail Avenue Frederick, Maryland 21701 USA ‘Equality Through Sports’ ‘Per Ludos Aequalitas’ April 2010 Copyright: © 2010 International Committee of Sports for the Deaf This document has been produced by and it is the property of International Committee of Sports for the Deaf. This document, either in whole or in part, must not be reproduced or disclosed to others without the International Committee of Sports for the Deaf’s approval. 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1. Foreword Deaflympics is an exciting, vibrant and fast-growing sporting event which is accessible to those of almost every age, gender and physical capacity. International Committee of Sport for the Deaf (ICSD) oversees this prestigious event which has 104 member countries from all over the world and has many hundreds of thousands of individual adherents or athletes, coaches, officials worldwide. The underpinning of Deaflympics is in the Olympic movement of the world and this base level of participation provides a boundless source for our competitive and fast-pacing sporting event. It is still puzzling then to many observers, as to why Deaflympics and its recognised governing body, ICSD/CISS have not still been embraced more broadly by Olympics, Paralympics and other sporting organisations and the sporting public and media. The answer to this is myopia – the ICSD rested on the laurels of the inherent pluses of our prestigious Deaf Sporting events and therefore needs to act proactively in order to establish the distribution of diplomatic channels, media & marketing activities, leadership & partnership development programmes and infrastructure bases which are necessary to further determine our position and product.
