As it was his foresight, patience and wisdom that has encouraged me to persevere, so he must shoulder some of the burden. Despite being constantly challenged in the last five years, I offer my unending gratitude and heartfelt appreciation to him. I also extend sincere thanks as well as further blame to my supervisory team. To Dr Laura Gale, my second Director of Studies, Dr Ryan Groom and Dr Samantha Oldfield who have provided me with their well measured advice and questions. Furthermore, I recognise that without the willing contribution from all who acted as research participants I would have no thesis at all. Therefore, thank you to everyone I interviewed and I hope to do justice to your involvement. To my well-meaning friends and family who forgave me for not being fully present, I extend my warmest gratitude. I am indebted to your foolhardy belief in me throughout my research. My parents, Rose and Bill, have kept me grounded throughout. Finally, to the two people most affected by my studies, Tom and Mikey, I thank you the most.

Version of item: Submitted version Available at: http://hdl.handle.net/10034/344352 “No pain, no gain”: Former elite female gymnasts’ engagement with pain and injury discourses Dissertation submitted in accordance with the requirements of the University of Chester for the degree of Master of Science October 2014 Abstract This research investigates the discourses influential in former elite female artistic gymnasts' engagement with pain and injury. The purpose of this study was to examine participants' engagement with pain and injury discourses and interrogate the ways in which certain discourses became dominant. Despite extensive sociological research providing exposure to the ways in which athletes experience pain and injury, there is little research into gymnasts' experiences. Therefore, this research not only contributes to the sociological literature on pain and injury, but also provides a complimentary addition to the efforts towards injury prevention from the medical, epidemiological and psychological perspectives.

    Preliminary communication UDC 17:796(045) doi: 10.21464/sp34207 Received: 20 December 2018 Joca Zurc Okayama University, Graduate School of Education, 3–1–1 Tsushima-naka, Kita-ku, Okayama 700–8530, Japan [email protected]; [email protected] Ethical Aspects of Health and Wellbeing of Young Elite Athletes Conceptual and Normative Issues Abstract Sport and physical activities offer a sensitive environment where the values of humanity, human rights, empathy and fair play come to the fore. However, at the same time the com- petition nature of sport and the interest of winning at any cost represent a risks of harm, especially for young preadolescent athletes. Therefore, the need arises to identify the main ethical conceptual and normative issues of the top youth sport. Our critical review of pos- sible risk factors and empirical findings of semi-structured in-depth interviews with four top-level gymnastics’ coaches showed that achievements of children in sport are the result of multiple factors driven by the main force of the ethics of maximum behind. Gymnasts’ intrinsic motivation, pleasure to sport, persistent hard work, start at early age, and the role of parents are essential for success. However, the morality of the coach as a reflection of society values should be carefully considered in the future. Keywords ethics of sport, talent development, exploitation of children, artistic gymnastics, Youth Ol- ympic Games, ethics of society, qualitative study Introduction “Every elite achievement inevitably needs dreams that overtake the natural course of events. Dreams open the space of possibilities, which are not visible in a given situation, and open the gap between the objective and the subjective time.”1 Sports and physical activities can offer a very encouraging and beneficial environment where the values of humanity, human rights, empathy and fair play come into the fore.

  • History of Indian Athletics
    International Association of Athletics Federations International Association of Athletics Federations Formation 1912 Type Sports federation Headquarters Monaco Membership 212 member federations President Lamine Diack Website http://www.iaaf.org/ The International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF) is the international governing body for the sport of athletics. It was founded in 1912 at its first congress in Stockholm, Sweden by representatives from 17 national athletics federations as the International Amateur Athletics Federation. Since October 1993 it has been headquartered in Monaco. Beginning in 1982, the IAAF has passed several amendments to its rules allowing athletes to receive compensation for participation in international athletics competitions. However, the IAAF retained the word "amateur" in its name until its 2001 Congress at which the IAAF's title was changed to its current form. The IAAF's current president is Lamine Diack of Senegal. He became Acting President shortly after the death of the previous president, Primo Nebiolo of Italy in November 1999, and was elected IAAF President at the IAAF's 2001 Congress. Presidents Since the establishment of the IAAF, it has had five presidents: Name Country Presidency Sigfrid Edström Sweden 1912±1946 Lord Burghley United Kingdom 1946±1976 Adriaan Paulen Netherlands 1976±1981 Primo Nebiolo Italy 1981±1999 Lamine Diack Senegal 1999± The IAAF has a total of 213 member federations divided into 6 area associations.

Vrijwel niemand kent De 144, wat ze doet en waarom ze zo heet. Noch waarom ze geen 144 maar 184 leden telt. Tot voor kort stelde dit exclusieve gezelschap van mensen met grote verdiensten voor de Nederlandse sport zich tevreden met een bestaan als sociaal netwerk en gezelligheidsvereniging. Vorig jaar werd voormalig hockeyinternational Carole Thate gekozen als nieuwe voorzitter, als opvolger van voormalig golfer Daan Slooter. Sindsdien waait er een nieuwe wind. De daadkrachtige Thate, die zestien jaar leidinggaf aan de Johan Cruyff Foundation, wil De 144 meer doel en focus geven, om het genootschap ook voor toekomstige generaties leden aantrekkelijk en relevant te houden. Een bestaan als buitenparlementaire actie- of lobbygroep in de sport moet niet worden uitgesloten! DOOR FRANS OOSTERWIJK De 144 bestaat uit ex-topsporters, marketeers, oud-be- stuurders en journalisten (voor de actuele ledenlijst, zie kader). Juist die diversiteit maakt de vereniging een potentieel krachtige en invloedrijke club. Een van de eerste daden van Thate als voorzitter was contact zoeken met ex-volleyballer Edwin Benne, speler uit het gouden team van 1996 en voorzitter van de Neder- landse Vereniging van Olympische Deelnemers (NVOD).
