  • 2017 Annual Meeting Committee Reports
    2017 USATF ANNUAL MEETING COMMITTEE REPORTS 2017 Athletes Advisory Committee Annual Report Submitted October 30, 2017 Purpose: The purpose of this report is to summarize the strategic goals and progress towards such of the USATF Athletes Advisory Committee in 2017. Strategic Goal #1: Athlete Funding & Support Increase athlete funding through prize money, stipends, Revenue Distribution Plan The RDP contract is being finalized between the national office and the AAC to ensure fair treatment and no room for interpretation. A plan for the 2018 RDP money (since there is no team to make and be paid for) is being presented to the national office. Athletes need to be paid on time, in a predictable manner. A schedule is being put together detailing when each type of payment can be expected (Tier payments, prize money, RDP), to which the national office will be held accountable. The Emergency Relief Fund was finalized in 2016 to provide emergency financial assistance to current or recently retired athletes facing a catastrophic event causing financial distress. In 2017, the fund was first used to help athletes in dire situations. USATF has funded the account initially, with the AAC being responsible for future fundraising. Strategic Goal #2: Domestic Competitive Opportunities It is important to the AAC that we continue to seek out opportunities for domestic competitions to reduce the dependency on the European circuit. 2019 will be an especially important year, as the World Championships will take place much later than usual (late Sept/early Oct). We will need domestic competitive opportunities in June, July and August of 2019.

  • ATLETICA - La Storia Enciclopedia Dello Sport Di Roberto L
    ATLETICA - La storia Enciclopedia dello Sport di Roberto L. Quercetani, Giorgio Reineri, Gianfranco Colasante sommario: ▢ Da Olimpia ai nostri giorni. ▢ L'organizzazione dell'atletica nel mondo. ▢ L'organizzazione continentale dell'atletica. ▢ Il passaggio al professionismo. ▢ Doping e antidoping. ▢ L'atletica italiana. ▢ Bibliografia. Da Olimpia ai nostri giorni di Roberto L. Quercetani L'atletica nell'antichità La parola atletica ‒ dal greco athlos "lotta", "combattimento" ‒ indica la pratica agonistica del correre, saltare e lanciare, non la semplice e isolata manifestazione di tali gesti. La storia dell'esercizio atletico nasce quasi con l'uomo, se non altro per la necessità che egli ebbe, fin dai tempi più remoti, di far ricorso ad atteggiamenti di difesa o di offesa che implicavano appunto correre, saltare, lanciare. Inoltre, al di là di ogni possibile contrasto, tali gesti corrispondono alle più semplici e spontanee manifestazioni dell'essere umano, che sia nella storia sociale sia nel quadro più soggettivo della crescita individuale è teso a scoprire e a esprimere le proprie risorse e potenzialità fisiche. Tracce di un'attività atletica si trovano in bassorilievi egiziani risalenti a circa 3500 anni prima di Cristo, ma non si può escludere che manifestazioni del genere siano state in auge anche presso civiltà più antiche, per es. nelle Americhe e in Asia. Le prime notizie di sicuro rilievo su competizioni dell'Evo Antico si riferiscono comunque alla Grecia e all'Irlanda. La letteratura greca dà notizia di gare di corsa tenute ancor prima del 1000 a.C., per lo più nell'ambito di funzioni religiose. L'origine dei Giochi Olimpici ‒ così chiamati perché si svolgevano ogni quattro anni a Olimpia nel Peloponneso nordoccidentale ‒ è fatta risalire da alcuni al 1222 a.C.
