    History of the Commonwealth Games

    GAMES HISTORY INTRODUCTION In past centuries, the British Empire’s power and influence stretched all over the world. It started at the time of Elizabeth 1 when Sir Francis Drake and other explorers started to challenge the Portuguese and Spanish domination of the world. The modern Commonwealth was formed in 1949, with ‘British’ dropped from the name and with Logo of the Commonwealth many countries becoming independent, but Games Federation choosing to remain part of the group of nations called the Commonwealth. The first recorded Games between British Empire athletes were part of the celebrations for the Coronation of His Majesty King George V in 1911. The Games were called the 'Festival of Empire' and included Athletics, Boxing, Wrestling and Swimming events. At the 1928 Olympic Games in Amsterdam, the friendliness between the Empire athletes revived the idea of the Festival of Empire. Canadian, Bobby Robinson, called a meeting of British Empire sports representatives, who agreed to his proposal to hold the first Games in 1930 in Hamilton, Canada. From 1930 to 1950 the Games were called the British Empire Games, and until 1962 were called the British Empire and Commonwealth Games. From 1966 to 1974 they became the British Commonwealth Games and from 1978 onwards they have been known as the Commonwealth Games. HISTORY OF THE COMMONWEALTH GAMES 1930 British Empire Games Hamilton, Canada 16-23 August The first official Commonwealth Games, held in Hamilton, Canada in 1930 were called the British Empire Games. Competing Countries (11) Australia, Bermuda, British Guiana (now Guyana), Canada, England, Newfoundland (now part of Canada), New Zealand, Northern Ireland, Scotland, South Africa and Wales.

    Time for the premiere Olympic sport: Sundays at the Track Allyson Felix, 100 m-200 m-400 m The Olympic Games are, for the most part, a celebration of sports which hibernate in the public attention during the four-year hiatus between events. Basketball and soccer enjoy worldwide popularity, but mostly for domestic club teams in the U.S. and Europe instead of national teams competing at the Games. But track & field, swimming and gymnastics seemingly always steal the show when the Olympic flag is unfurled. And year-in and year-out, it is track & field which produces interest and stars, with little commercial notice, but the widest-possible potential: Ashton Eaton, decathlon The next break-out sport is the world’s oldest sport: running, jumping and throwing . Track & Field led by the world’s no. 1 track & field nation: The United States of America Galen Rupp, 5000 m In the yearly aftermath of the Super Bowl, the absolute end of the football season in America, why not create a new Sunday afternoon tradition with the sport most closely associated with football’s core elements of speed, power and tactics . track & field!

    Florence Griffith-Joyner

    Florence Griffith-Joyner "People don't pay much attention to you when you are second best. I wanted to see what it felt like to be number one." -Florence Griffith-Joyner One of the most memorable moments of Olympic history was when Florence Griffith Joyner became a track and field champion, winning 3 Gold Medals during the 1988 Seoul games. It was then that the persona known as "Flo Jo" became known worldwide. With her shiny one-legged running outfits, long hair, and brightly painted fingernails, she captured medals and the attention of the world with her speed, grace, and charm. She captured world records in track and field and was named “The World’s Fastest Woman.” President Clinton recognized her talent and appointed her as co-chair of the President's Council on Physical Fitness and Sports. Florence Griffith Joyner was born Delorez Florence Griffith on December 21, in Mojave, California the seventh of eleven children. Her family nicknamed her ”Dee Dee.” At age 7 she began chasing rabbits in the housing project in South Central Los Angeles her family had moved to that year. Her mother was strict and raised her to adhere to house rules that included no television and early bedtimes. She once remarked about her home life, “The main reason I wanted to be successful was to get out of the ghetto. My parents helped direct my path.” Florence was a star adolescent athlete and student. She won the Jesse Owens National Youth Games at the Sugar Ray Robinson Youth Foundation and was a straight-A student.

    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
