The talented young athletes were competing for the opportunity to win one of 10 places on a training camp at Doha’s world-renowned Aspire Acad- emy for Sporting Excellence, whose alumni include Qatar’s sporting hero, Mutaz Barshim. The QOC established the Shine project to provide support and assist- ance to young athletes from disadvan- taged backgrounds from across Rio de Janeiro and leaving a compelling legacy from the Rio 2016 Games. The QOC, Qatar Athletics Federa- tion and Aspire Academy for Sport- ing Excellence partnered with Futuro Olimpico, an NGO founded by Brazil’s Olympic bronze medallist from Atlanta ‘96, Arnaldo de Oliveira, and the Rio de Janeiro Athletics Federation to organ- ise the project. Speaking about the vision behind the Shine project, Dr Thani al-Kuwari, Sec- retary General of the QOC, said: “The Qatar Olympic Committee believes in the power of sport to change lives and we were determined to ensure that we grasp the opportunity of the Rio 2016 Games to leave a positive impact on young athletes in Rio de Janeiro.” “This will provide a true legacy for both Brazil and Qatar. It is our sin- cere hope that our Shine project will provide invaluable support for these athletes on their journeys to become Brazil’s next Olympic heroes. We look forward to following their progress as their careers develop,” the QOC Secre- tary General added. The Shine tournament was attended by several offi cials from Qatar includ- ing Sheikha Asma al-Thani, Marketing Director at the QOC; Mohamed al- Kuwari, Secretary General of the Qatar Athletics Federation; and Dr Hazem Anabtawi, Deputy Director at the As- pire Academy. The offi cials were able to meet the athletes and learn more about how the project will benefi t them and their future careers. Athletes were competing across 24 events and the most notable result of the day came from 21-year-old Gabriel Oliveira Constantino, whose time of 10.47s in the men’s 100m was just 31 hundredths of a second short of the Ol- ympic qualifi cation time. Despite not qualifying on this occasion, there will be further opportunities and Gabriel’s performance won him a trip to Qatar and a place on the training camp with four other boys and fi ve girls.

    PROCURA GENERALE DELLO SPORT RELAZIONE ANNUALE 2017 redatta ai sensi dell’art. 10 del Regolamento di Organizzazione e Funzionamento 1. PREMESSA Il trascorrere del tempo dall’introduzione della riforma della Giustizia Sportiva ha visto l’ulteriore consolidamento dei rapporti tra la Procura Generale dello Sport e le Procure Federali e, conseguentemente, una significativa interazione e la garanzia di giudizi disciplinari equilibrati. Le difficoltà applicative delle norme del Codice della Giustizia Sportiva novellato non sono state superate completamente, sia per le diversificate fattispecie che le discipline sportive palesano; sia per ‘retaggi del passato’ non ancora sopiti e, conseguentemente, difficili da ‘rimuovere’. Gli interventi nei confronti delle Procure Federali, seppure sempre consistenti nella quantità (ALLEGATO N. 1), hanno per lo più svolto una finalità di collaborazione con le medesime, contribuendo, quindi, al miglioramento della fase delle indagini preliminari. Spero che non dispiaccia che la presente Relazione annuale venga inviata anche ai Procuratori Nazionali dello Sport, veri artefici, in questi anni, dei risultati positivi conseguiti dalla Giustizia ‘esofederale’ secondo gli auspici della riforma promossa in proposito.

  • On Modernity, Identity and White-Collar Boxing. Phd
    From Rookie to Rocky? On Modernity, Identity and White-Collar Boxing Edward John Wright, BA (Hons), MSc, MA Thesis submitted to the University of Nottingham for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. September, 2017 Abstract This thesis is the first sociological examination of white-collar boxing in the UK; a form of the sport particular to late modernity. Given this, the first research question asked is: what is white-collar boxing in this context? Further research questions pertain to social divisions and identity. White- collar boxing originally takes its name from the high social class of its practitioners in the USA, something which is not found in this study. White- collar boxing in and through this research is identified as a practice with a highly misleading title, given that those involved are not primarily from white-collar backgrounds. Rather than signifying the social class of practitioner, white-collar boxing is understood to pertain to a form of the sport in which complete beginners participate in an eight-week boxing course, in order to compete in a publicly-held, full-contact boxing match in a glamorous location in front of a large crowd. It is, thus, a condensed reproduction of the long-term career of the professional boxer, commodified for consumption by others. These courses are understood by those involved to be free in monetary terms, and undertaken to raise money for charity. As is evidenced in this research, neither is straightforwardly the case, and white-collar boxing can, instead, be understood as a philanthrocapitalist arrangement. The study involves ethnographic observation and interviews at a boxing club in the Midlands, as well as public weigh-ins and fight nights, to explore the complex interrelationships amongst class, gender and ethnicity to reveal the negotiation of identity in late modernity.

  • Il Napoli Ha Ingaggiato Carlo Ancelotti, Il Tecnico Italiano Più Titolato in Attività, Con Un Triennale Ed Un Chiaro Progetto: Vincere
    Il Napoli ha ingaggiato Carlo Ancelotti, il tecnico italiano più titolato in attività, con un triennale ed un chiaro progetto: vincere. Eh sì perché è la cosa che riesce meglio al tecnico di Reggiolo. Trofei ne ha vinti a iosa ed è pure impossibile ricordarcene tutti. Noi proviamo a tracciare un profilo di Ancelotti attraverso il suo palmares. Carlo Ancelotti nasce a Reggiolo il 10 giugno 1959 ed intraprende la carriera di calciatore nel Parma nel 1976-1977 in Serie C, con il club guidato in panchina da Cesare Maldini. È lui a segnare il gol che regala la promozione in B dei Ducali nello spareggio contro la Triestina. Passa, poi, alla Roma dove disputa otto stagioni conquistando uno scudetto (1982-1983) e 4 Coppe Italia (1979-1980, 1980-1981, nella cui finale di andata realizzò una rete, 1983-1984 e 1985-1986). Nel 1987 passa al Milan e con i rossoneri vince subito lo scudetto 1987-1988 poi alza al cielo per due volte consecutive la Coppa dei Campioni, la Coppa Intercontinentale e la Supercoppa Europea. Chiude la carriera nel 1992, a 33 anni, con il suo terzo scudetto personale, il secondo in rossonero. Inizia la sua carriera di allenatore come vice di Arrigo Sacchi sulla panchina dell’Italia tra il 1992 ed il 1995, mentre la sua prima esperienza è sulla Reggiana, nel 1995, in B con quarto posto finale e promozione in A. Da lì il passaggio al Parma; in due anni qualificazione storica alla Champions League e, l’anno seguente, alla Coppa UEFA. Nel 1999 arriva alla Juve da subentrato, al posto di Marcello Lippi; conquista una Coppa Intertoto ma le due stagioni si chiudono con due secondi posti, dietro – rispettivamente – Lazio e Roma con i bianconeri che naufragarono a Perugia nel 2000.

  • 21: Prestazioni Eccellenti Di Zaza, Mandragora E Sanabria
    I Top E I Flop Di Torino-Sassuolo 3-2 Recupero Ventiquattresima Giornata Serie A 2020-'21: Prestazioni eccellenti di Zaza, Mandragora e Sanabria. Bene anche Sirigu, altra prova deludente di Izzo 17/03/2021 Il Torino conquista tre punti di platino risalendo dallo 0-2 nell'ultimo quarto d'ora. Prestazioni eccellenti di Zaza, Mandragora e Sanabria. Bene anche Sirigu, altra prova deludente di Izzo. --->I TOP SIMONE ZAZA 8: gli basta un quarto d'ora per riscattare tante prestazioni negative. Entrato al 72' al posto di Rincon, dopo cinque minuti realizza la marcatura che riapre l'incontro, per poi ripetersi al 92', "comparendo" dinanzi a Consigli per insaccare di testa la rete del trionfo. Ora bisogna continuare così. ROLANDO MANDRAGORA 7: altra prova convincente del numero 38 granata. Dopo due tentativi respinti da Consigli, trova il goal del pareggio all'86' facendosi trovare pronto a depositare in rete una respinta del portiere nero-verde su una conclusione di Gojak deviata da Obiang. Gara tutta grinta. ANTONIO SANABRIA 6,5: continua il momento magico dell'attaccante paraguaiano. Stavolta, diversamente dalle precedenti due uscite, non va a segno, pur sfiorando la rete al 17', quando una sua inzuccata trova l'opposizione dell'attento Consigli. Si "consola" fornendo (sempre di testa) l'assist per la prima rete di Zaza. SALVATORE SIRIGU 6,5: ha qualche responsabilità sulla seconda rete di Berardi, ma si riscatta alzando (con una mano!) oltre la traversa un secco destro di Obiang, esattamente un minuto dopo il 2-2. Una parata del miglior "Salvatore di nome e di fatto", che evita la beffa: poco dopo, Zaza sigla il definitivo 3-2.

For the leaders of the national associations and of UEFA, there is no such thing as a quiet period either. This year, for example, UEFA’s member associations first had the delicate task of deciding who UEFA’s president would be for the next four years. Just a few months later, in April, it will be up to the UEFA Executive Committee to decide where EURO 2012 will take place. 2007 is also likely to be a crucial time in relations between European football and the European Union.

It was only their second World Cup appearance and they have not been back since. It took Turkey ten attempts to qualify for their first UEFA European Championship final tournament, and after losing all three matches at EURO '96 they reached the quarter-finals at UEFA EURO 2000 under Mustafa Denizli. They went one step further eight years later in Austria/ Switzerland, a dramatic penalty shoot-out win over Croatia putting Fatih Terim's team into the semi-finals, where they lost 3-2 to Germany. After missing out in Poland/Ukraine, they returned to the finals at UEFA EURO 2016 by qualifying as the best third-placed side over the nine preliminary sections.
