2014 Winter Olympic Competing Nations ALBANIA (ALB) 2014 Winter Olympic Competing Nations We list below detailed historial Olympic information for every IOC Member Nation that has previously competed at the Olympic Winter Games and that will compete in Sochi, as of 27 January 2014. There appear to be 88 qualified NOCs that have met IF quota requirements as of 24 January, and have accepted them (the previous record for a Winter Olympics is 82 in 2010 at Vancouver). Unfortunately, after reallocation of some quotas, only the skiing federation (FIS) has published the final quotas as of 26 January. We have tried to list below the sports for which each NOC has qualified but there is a small chance, with reallocations, that there may be minor differences in the final allocation by sport. There are seven nations that will compete in Sochi that have never before competed at the Olympic Winter Games – Dominica, Malta, Paraguay, Timor-Leste (East Timor), Togo, Tonga, and Zimbabwe. Their factsheets have been published previously on olympstats.com – see http://olympstats.com/2014/01/23/new-winter-olympic-nations-for-sochi/, which came out on 23 January. One problem nation is listed below and that is DPR Korea (North). They have not qualified any athletes for Sochi. They had the 1st and 2nd reserves for pairs figure skating but those do not appear to have been chosen by final reallocation of quota sports by the International Skating Union (ISU). However, yesterday (26 January), DPR Korea has petitioned the IOC for redress to allow them to have Olympic athletes compete in Sochi. So they are included below but it is unknown if they will compete.

In 1908 Argentine Henri Torromé, who lived in England, competed at the “Summer” Games in figure skating. In 1920, Rodríguez, a boxer whose first name is uncertain (either António or Ángel), competed in the lightweight class, losing his first match. The Argentine Olympic Committee was formed on 31 December 1923 and was immediately recognized by the IOC. In 1924 Argentina was finally represented at the Olympics in Paris with a full team. They have since competed at every summer Games with the exception of the 1980 Moscow Olympics.

  • Biathlon - Overview Biathlon Is One of the Most Challenging Winter Games Which Gives Thrilling Experience in Chilled Winter
    COMPILED BY : - GAUTAM SINGH STUDY MATERIAL – SPORTS 0 7830294949 Biathlon - Overview Biathlon is one of the most challenging winter games which gives thrilling experience in chilled winter. This winter sport is a mixture of cross-country skiing and rifle shooting. Biathlon is difficult to play because here the athletes participating in a cross country skiing race are distracted by frequent stops to shoot at sequence of targets. Biathlon is a combination of five events − individual, sprint, pursuit, relay, and mass start. In this game, the athletes compete in cross country skiing and shoot series of targets from a distance. The athletes need to be fast, focussed, and have more stamina. Every time the target is missed the biathlete either gets an additional time or distance penalty. It is important that the skier is fast enough to maintain the competition but should be slow enough to maintain control. In this game the athletes carry a rifle and shoot the target from the distance of 50m. A Little History of Biathlon THANKS FOR READING – VISIT OUR WEBSITE www.educatererindia.com COMPILED BY : - GAUTAM SINGH STUDY MATERIAL – SPORTS 0 7830294949 Biathlon has its roots in Norway where the people used it as training for the military. One of the World’s first ever known ski club was formed in Norway in 1861. In 1924 the combination of skiing and shooting made its way to the Winter Olympics. It was then demonstrated in 1928, 1936 and 1948 but failed to regain Olympic competition back then. In mid 1950s biathlon was introduced into the Soviet and Swedish winter sport circuits and was enjoyed by the mass.

  • Doma V Mariboru
    Zlata lisica. Doma v Mariboru. 56 nepozabnih lisičjih zgodb Naslovka.indd 2 29/01/2020 13:38 02 56. ZGODBO ZLATE LISICE PIŠEMO SKUPAJ Za nas Štajerce, ki smo Pohorje vedno imeli pred očmi, je Zlata lisica zmeraj pomenila najpomembnejšo športno prireditev v vsakem letu in za naše športne junakinje smo vedno srčno in glasno navijali. Na Pohorje sem se sicer vselej z največjim veseljem vračal, pa če je šlo za dnevno smučarijo, poletne priprave namiznoteniškega kluba ali pa le ob pogledu iz družinskega vinograda, ko se pred očmi za Ptujskim in Dravskim poljem razgrne v vsej mogočnosti. Čeravno sem sam zgolj rekreativni smučar in sem bil tekmovalno zapisan namiznemu tenisu, občudujem vse slovenske športnice in športnike, ki s trdim delom predano sledijo postavljenim ciljem, imajo najvišje ambicije in dosegajo izjemne rezultate v svetovnem merilu. V športu je vse jasno in običajno ni prostora za iskanje izgovorov. Podobno filozofijo gojijo tudi slovenske podjetnice in podjetniki, ki dosegajo vse boljše rezultate v globalni konkurenci. Vnaprej se veselim časa, ko si bomo tudi v oblastnih strukturah in Za to skrbimo na več načinov. Najprej s resnično neugodnih razmerah pokazati sistemskih institucijah postavili enake cilje. svojim znanjem in storitvami, usmerjenimi še posebno veliko požrtvovalnosti in Da bomo kot družba med najboljšimi na k strankam, s prepoznavanjem priložnosti predanosti, za kar se ji v NLB zahvaljujemo svetu in bomo za to trdo in predano delali, in potreb lokalnega okolja, z uspešnim in ji čestitamo. Prepričani smo, da bodo vse ne pa kot v zadnjem desetletju v glavnem poslovanjem ter s promocijo slovenskega od sebe dali tudi v njenem drugem domu, iskali bližnjice in izgovore, zakaj nam ne gospodarstva.
