The Participation of Small States at the Summer Olympic Games
ISLANDS AND SMALL STATES INSTITUTE UNIVERSITY OF MALTA, MSIDA, MALTA OCCASIONAL PAPERS ON ISLANDS AND SMALL STATES ISSN 1024-6282 Number: 2021/01 THE PARTICIPATION OF SMALL STATES AT THE SUMMER OLYMPIC GAMES Kevin Joseph Azzopardi More information about the series of occasional paper can be obtained from the Islands and Small States Institute, University of Malta. Tel: 356-21344879, email: [email protected]. THE PARTICIPATION OF SMALL STATES AT THE SUMMER OLYMPIC GAMES Kevin Joseph Azzopardi * 1. Introduction Despite having gone through a marathon 18 days full of events against all odds due to the pandemic, the glamour of the Summer Olympic Games lived on as the entire world got together in a true show of force and unity with athletes battling it out to the least shot, millimetre and point to return back home as Olympic heroes. The starting lists and medals’ table have, as in previous editions, served as an ideal platform for the traditional powerhouses in world sport to further demonstrate their dominance with a few surprises making the headlines from time to time. Ever since the inaugural edition of the Games for the Small States of Europe (GSSE) held in 1985 in San Marino, this biannual event became a benchmark for the participating countries to gauge their progress against other similar countries whose population is less than 1 million inhabitants. As per Table 1, if the same model were to be applied across the globe at Olympic level, 48 countries would fit in the bill for such a comparative exercise with Cyprus’ population, one of the founding members of the GSSE, now increasing to 1.2 million. -

2017-2018 Annual Report
Annual Report 2017 - 2018 Table of Contents 01 Report from the Chair 4 02 Directors, Chairs, Committees & Staff 6 03 Terms of Reference 11 04 Committee Reports 24 05 Provincial & Territorial Reports 50 06 External Representation Reports 64 07 Sponsorship Report 74 08 Communications Report 76 09 Financial Report 79 10 Partners 93 01 Report from the Chair I’d like to take this opportunity to acknowledge the breadth and depth of the work done by Volleyball Canada in the 2017-18 year. As is evident by this Annual Report, we have made great strides in many areas, and there is still so much more work to be done. Highlights for me, especially as a men’s national team alumnus, include the men’s bronze medal at the 2017 World League finals and that team’s World Championship qualification. As well, it’s great to see the women’s indoor team progress at its home base in Richmond, and convincingly beating Cuba to qualify for the World Championships last fall. Needless to say, we’ve seen world-class strides made on the beach side over the past several years – for the first time having a world number 1 ranked team on the beach tour on the women’s side this past year, and both the men and women medaling at the first-ever Commonwealth Games beach tournament in Australia. Our sitting athletes are a constant source of inspiration to so many, including myself, and it’s great to see them working so hard toward Paralympic Games qualification. I was also very impressed by the work done leading up to and including the major Nationals event in Edmonton. -
