In addition, eight non-Olympic sports will be featured:baseball, ten-pin bowling, cricket, kabaddi, karate, sepaktakraw, squash and wushu. The list was finalised on December 9, 2010 at the OCA's executive board meeting in Muscat,Oman.[33][34] This resulted in six other sports: roller sport, chess, cue sports, softball, dancesport and dragon boat, which were held in previous Games being dropped from the list.[35] The list was approved on July 13, 2011 during the 30th annual general assembly in Tokyo as softball incorporated with baseball as one sport while soft tennis is under the discipline of tennis.[36] For the first time, compound archery was introduced as part of the event in archery.[37] Earlier, the organisers proposed to stage 38 sports in the Games, but during the 28th Olympic Council of Asia (OCA) general assembly in Singapore in July 2009, it was decided that the number of sports be trimmed to 35 by contesting the 28 Olympic sports and in-addition of seven non-Olympic sports.[38] The issue was expected to be decided in OCA general assembly during the 2010 Games in Guangzhou, China, but it was delayed because conflict of interest between the organisers and OCA, thus bringing into disputed for sports to be feature. On November 13, 2010, organisers proposed baseball, ten-pin bowling, kabbadi, sepaktakraw, softball, squash, wushu for inclusion and drop cricket due to their view that it is played in a small number of countries and they lacked infrastructure to host it. The OCA however, insisting the inclusion of karate, as well as cricket because the sport can generate returns through television viewership due to high spectator interest,[39] while ten-pin bowling was recommended to be re-designated for the Indoor Games.[40] • Aquatics • Canoeing • Football • Diving • Sprint • Golf • Swimming • Slalom • Gymnastics • Synchronized swimming • Cricket • Artistic • Water polo • Cycling • Rhythmic • Archery • BMX • Trampoline • Athletics • Mountain bike • Handball • Badminton • Road • Judo • Baseball • Track • Kabaddi • Baseball • Equestrian • Karate • Softball • Dressage • Modern pentathlon • Basketball • Eventing • Rowing • Bowling • Jumping • Rugby sevens • Boxing • Fencing • Sailing • Field hockey NOC BULLETIN ISSUE 3 MAY 2013 ̪ OCA President Visit Korea th ̪ The 6 C.C. meeting ̪ Preparation of 2013 AIMAG & 2014 AG ̪ NOC Service Activities ̪ Promotion Activities 2014 Incheon Asian Games Organizing Committee Contents 2013.

  • Proposed Research Outline
    LC Paper No. CB(2) 1263/03-04(01) PROPOSED RESEARCH OUTLINE The Economic and Social Impacts of Hosting Selected International Games 1. Background 1.1 The Panel on Home Affairs (Panel), at its meeting on 12 December 2003, requested the Research and Library Services Division (RLSD) to conduct a research study on the possible impacts for Hong Kong to host the 2009 East Asian (EA) Games based on the experience of the previous EA Games. 2. Proposed international games to be studied 2.1 RLSD originally intended to study the EA Games held in 1997 and 20011. For comparison, the Asian Games held in 1998 and 2002 were also considered for the study2. Apart from thorough in-house and Internet research, enquiries have been made to the relevant organizing committees and government departments in the host countries for providing the required information. However, only scanty information from official sources has so far been successfully collected on the impacts of hosting the EA Games and the Asian Games. As such, the research will study the 2002 Asian Games and make use of information available from newspapers, magazines and other secondary sources where appropriate. In addition, the 2000 Olympic Games3 and the 2002 Commonwealth Games4 will be included in the study for a better understanding of the impacts of hosting international sports events. 2.2 The study of the 2000 Olympic Games should help reflect the extent of the economic and social impacts that hosting an international sports event could have on a host country, although the scale of a mega sports event such as the Olympic Games is larger than that of the EA Games.

  • Games and Sports : a Gateway of Women's Empowerment in India
    Games And Sports : A Gateway Of Women’s Empowerment In India Dr. Krishnendu Pradhan ABSTRACT “Sport has huge potential to empower women and girls” - Remarks by Lakshmi Puri; UN Assistant Secretary-General and UN Women Deputy Executive Director. The purpose of this paper attempts to shed light the status of women’s empowerment in India through games and sports and highlights the issues and challenges of women empowerment in the field of physical education and sports. Sport is an integral part of the culture of almost every nation. However, its use to promote gender equity and empower girls and women is often overlooked because sport is not universally perceived as a suitable or desirable pursuit for girls and women. Today the empowerment of women in games and sports has become one of the most important concerns of 21st century. But practically women empowerment in games and sports is still an illusion of reality. It is observe in our day to day life how women become victimized by various social evils. Women empowerment is the vital instrument to expand women’s ability to have resources and to make strategic life choices. Empowerment of women in games and sports is essentially the process of upliftment of economic, social and political status of women, the traditionally underprivileged ones, in the society. Today sports and physical activity as a strategy for the empowerment of girls and women has been gaining recognition worldwide. Women could be empowered through education, sports and physical activities and by giving them equal opportunities in different walks of life. Research on sport, gender, and development indicates that sport can benefit girls and women by: Enhancing health and well-being, fostering self-esteem and empowerment, facilitating social inclusion and integration, challenging gender norms and providing opportunities for leadership and achievement.
