Essay Contest 2016/17 Lea Maier, International School Kufstein, 5
Essay Contest 2016/17 Lea Maier, International School Kufstein, 5. Klasse, 4 Jahre Spracherwerb The fastest immigrant in Canada “Follow your passion, be prepared to work hard and sacrifice, and, above all, don’t let anyone limit your dreams”, is Donovan Bailey´s answer to Paul Irish´s question on what he would say to today´s kids on the subject of success. The interview was published in the Toronto Star on November 28th in 2011. Bailey, who immigrated to Canada as a teenager, is not only a successful businessman, he also won two gold medals at the Olympic games in Atlanta in 1996. He retired from his athletic career in 2001. Apart from investing in several business ventures, he founded the Donovan Bailey Fund to help Canada’s amateur athletes (The Famous People, n.d.). I chose to write about Donovan Bailey, the fastest immigrant in Canada, because he was not only a successful athlete, but also a successful businessman before he focused on his athletic career. Donovan Bailey, the son of Daisy and George Bailey, was born on December 16th, 1967 in Manchester, Jamaica. As long as they lived in Jamaica, he used to wake up early in the morning and take care of the family’s pigs, chickens and goats before going to school. After school, he used to play soccer (The Famous People, n.d.). In 1981, when he was 13 years old, his family immigrated to Canada hoping for a better life and he lived with his father and four brothers in Oakville, a suburban town in Ontario.

EXPLORING the PATH to SUCCESS of FOUR BLACK CANADIAN ATHLETES from the 1980S to 2017
EXPLORING THE PATH TO SUCCESS OF FOUR BLACK CANADIAN ATHLETES FROM THE 1980s to 2017 GREGORY MAPP SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF EDUCATION NIPISSING UNIVERSITY SCHULICH SCHOOL OF EDUCATION NORTH BAY, ONTARIO © December 2018 iii Abstract The purpose of this study was to understand what has led to the success at the highest levels for some Black Canadian athletes. Specifically, what are the similarities and/or differences between and among these athletes that has led some to the pinnacle of success and others to not so fortunate circumstances? Through an investigation of 4 Black Canadian athletes, qualities, characteristics, factors, circumstances, and/or conditions were grouped, examined and the findings subsequently supported by my own personal experiences as a Black Canadian athlete in an attempt to understand what has contributed to the success at the highest levels for some Black Canadian athletes and not for others. My qualitative study revealed many similar and dissimilar qualities, characteristics, and factors that contributed to the successes of the 4 Black Canadian Athletes studied. The interpretation and analysis of the data collected divulged the following emergent themes: introduction to their particular sport, motivation, determination, challenges the athletes faced, the “IT factor”, and, a strong belief in themselves. The study concludes with some considerations for future study and suggestions to increase awareness, initiate discussion, and educate and encourage coaches, young

The Olympic 100M Sprint
Exploring the winning data: the Olympic 100 m sprint Performances in athletic events have steadily improved since the Olympics first started in 1896. Chemists have contributed to these improvements in a number of ways. For example, the design of improved materials for clothing and equipment; devising and monitoring the best methods for training for particular sports and gaining a better understanding of how energy is released from our food so ensure that athletes get the best diet.

CATIIYFREEMAN Differences in Their Sexed Bodies and Dispositions
