  • Relationships Between International Sport Federations and International Disability Sport
    Relationships Between International Sport Federations and International Disability Sport Northeastern University’s Center for the Study of Sport in Society Disability in Sport www.sportinsociety.org Introduction Sport opportunities for people with disabilities worldwide have traditionally been organized by disability rather than sport. International governing bodies for sport for people with disabilities include organizations such as the International Committee for Deaflympics (CISS) for the deaf, Special Olympics International for persons with intellectual disabilities and the International Paralympic Committee traditionally for persons with physical disabilities and since 1992 also for persons with intellectual disabilities. The histories of CISS, SOI and IPC are unique and in many respects more dissimilar than similar. What they do have in common is the reason for their creation: to offer opportunities in a segregated setting that were not being met by the able bodied sport system. Organizational Histories Paralympic sport began in the 1950s with a desire to re-integrate persons with disabilities into mainstream society and for over fifty years this issue has held a significant place within disability sport’s growth and development. Sir Ludwig Guttmann included sport and recreation into his rehabilitation programs at the Stoke Mandeville Rehabilitation hospital precisely to encourage the inclusion of war veterans into mainstream society and it was the games that he held that became the genesis for the Paralympic Games. The International Olympic Committee has signed two agreements with IPC confirming IOC financial and organizational support for the IPC and securing and protecting the organization of the Paralympic Games (Hums, Wolff & Legg, 2003). Special Olympics began in 1968 when Eunice Kennedy Shriver organized the First International Special Olympics Games in Chicago.

  • October N.186
    201 8 EOC Head Office | Villino Giulio Onesti | Via della Pallacanestro, 19 00135 Rome, Italy | Tel. +39 06 36857828 | Instagram | Twitter | [email protected] www.eurolympic.org OCTOBER N.186 MESSAGE FROM EOC PRESIDENT JANEZ KOCIJANČIČ Dear colleagues, It is with a heavy heart that I start this newsletter looking back at what was an otherwise excellent Buenos Aires 2018 Youth Olympic Games from 6-18 October. On the one hand, your young athletes once again did our continent proud, winning the lion’s share of the medals and sending a clear message that Europe’s future on the Olympic stage is in good hands. But on the other, the untimely passing of our dear friend and colleague Patrick Baumann was a terrible shock and the hole it has left in the Olympic Movement will be a difficult one to fill. On behalf of all of us at the EOC, and the Olympic Movement throughout Europe, I offer my sincere condolences to everyone affected, in particular his wife and children. He will be profoundly missed. It is difficult to transition into a more lighthearted topic after that, but I am sure Patrick would have wanted us all to continue promoting sport and the Olympic values with the same amount of passion or possibly even more now that he is gone. So with that, I would like to congratulate all the ENOCs and their athletes for their hard work, dedication and success in Argentina. In the end, the Russian Federation topped the standings with 59 medals, led by swimmers Kliment Kolesnikov and Andrei Minakov, who each won six golds and one silver.

  • USA Games Advancement Criteria
    Supplemental Document to Athlete Nomination Criteria Introduction: Once every 4 years, Special Olympics athletes in the United States are provided the opportunity to represent our country at the highest level of competition - World Games (respectively for Summer & Winter Games)! Undoubtedly, one of the highest levels of privilege and opportunity for any Special Olympics athlete. In theory we would like to believe that consideration for selection for a World Games event should be afforded to every Special Olympics athlete. However due to many factors and considerations there is a need to better “screen” athletes who are selected to ensure that each athlete, coach, management team member and volunteer can achieve the best experience possible. Factors/considerations that make the World Games experience not only unique but challenging; • Length of Games – the World Games experience can involve anywhere from 18-21 days. The length of time required depends on the location of the Games and the pre-Games experience. For many Special Olympics athletes, this length of time away from home can prove to be a challenge. • Time Away from Parents/Family – Because of the structure of the U.S. Team, athletes chosen can expect to be away from their families for extended periods of time without seeing them and at times, with very limited contact. For some athletes this can cause stress and anxiety. • Adjusting to New Coaches – Coaches selected for the U.S. Team come from all across the country and it is rare for a World Games athlete to already know one of these coaches. Can the athlete adapt to a new coach? • Conform to the Group/Adaptability – In order for the U.S.

  • 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”.

  • Youth Olympic Games Awareness: an Analysis of Parents of Elite Youth Sport Athletes
    29 Youth Olympic Games Awareness: An Analysis of Parents of Elite Youth Sport Athletes Jeffrey C. Petersen, Baylor University Sarah Deitz, Brianna Leitzelar, Ball State University David Bellar, University of Louisiana at Lafayette Lawrence W. Judge, Ball State University Abstract The Youth Olympic Games (YOG) were established to bolster interest in the Olympic movement among the world’s youth. However, several prior studies have documented low levels of YOG awareness among multiple populations. As parents form a primary stakeholder group in the development of youth sport, this study sought to determine the awareness of the YOG compared to other mega-sport festivals, specifically within a group of elite youth athletes’ parents. A 24-item survey instrument was developed based upon prior YOG research surveys with additional comparative questions related to the 2012 London Olympic Games (LOG) and the Winter X Games (WXG). The results indicated that the YOG are lesser known than the WXG and the LOG. Despite the high level of elite youth sport engagement of this population, the low levels of YOG awareness and event consumption intent demonstrate a need for additional marketing and promotions for the YOG. Introduction A lack of new younger fans is leading to an aging audience for the Olympic Games. For example, median age for U.S. viewers for the Sochi Games in 2014 was 55 while the 2002 Salt Lake City Games was 48 (Duff & Rossingh, 2015). Across the entirety of the Sochi Winter Games, coverage the 18-49 age group viewership netted a record low rating compared to other Olympic Games of 5.5 or just over 21 million viewers in this crucial demographic group (Patten, 2014).
