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. -

The Paralympic Movement and the Olympics in Germany
The Paralympic Movement and the Olympics in Germany The Paralympic Movement and the Olympics in Germany Gudrun DOLL-TEPPER, Prof.Dr. (Free University Berlin / German Olympic Sports Confederation) Introduction In 2006, the “German Sports Confederation” (Deutscher Sportbund) and the “National Olympic Committee for Germany” (Nationales Olympisches Komitee für Deutschland) merged, and the “German Olympic Sports Confederation”(Deutscher Olympischer Sportbund/DOSB) became the umbrella sport organisation in Germany. In this paper, the main goals of this merging process, some historical developments, as well as current structures and issues will be discussed with a focus on the relations between the DOSB and disability sport organisations, in particular the “German Disability Sport Organisation”(Deutscher Behindertensportverband), which also serves as the “National Paralympic Committee Germany ” (Nationales Paralympisches Komitee). Both organisations are working together in a variety of programmes and projects, e.g. in the preparation of bids to host Olympic and Paralympic Games. “Inclusion” has become a keyword for many initiatives in German sports, particularly regarding the implementation of the “UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities”, which entered into force in March 2009. 1. A look back: Sport developments in Germany after World War II After World War II Germany was divided into the “Federal Republic of Germany” (FRG, West Germany) and the “German Democratic Republic” (GDR, East Germany). As a consequence, this division existed also in the newly established sport 1 Journal of Paralympic Research Group vol.5 organisations(see Deutscher Sportbund 1990): the “National Olympic Committee for Germany”(NOK für Deutschland) was founded in 1949 and the “NOC for the GDR” followed in 1951. -
Was Honoured to Be Invited by Oceania Athletics to Ho
Oceania Moves Towards One Athletics Family Oceania Masters Athletics (OMA) was honoured to be invited by Oceania Athletics to hold the OMA Council and AGM in conjunction with Oceania Athletics Association’s (OAA) biennial Congress held at the Gold Coast on 6-8 February 2015. This first joint meeting provided many of our Pacific Island member federations the opportunity to attend the OMA AGM and learn more about masters athletics in the Oceania region. Similarly it gave OMA Council members the opportunity to interact with delegates from the Oceania member federations (including Australia and New Zealand) as well as a range of athletic and pacific games dignitaries. These included the IAAF Vice President, Lord Sebastian Coe, the IAAF Secretary General, Essar Gabriel, and a number of IAAF Council and IAAF Committee members as well as the 2014 IAAF Female Athlete of the Year, Valerie Adams. It became apparent during the Congress that the Oceania region although representing less than 1% of the world’s population was highly regarded because of the strength of its regional development. This particular Congress had a greater degree of importance, because later this year there will be an election of a new IAAF President – both Sebastian Coe and Sergey Bubka are standing for the IAAF Presidency. The Oceania region is important in these upcoming elections because each IAAF member federation has one vote - thus tiny nations such as Nauru and Palau have the same vote as China or the USA. Report from OAA President Geoff Gardiner In typical Pacific Island style the Congress was opened by a moving sporting prayer by the Fiji delegate. -

You will also find the standings of the first three places in all events for men and women at the Olympic Games followed by several classifications which are listed either by the number of titles or medals by swimmer or National Federation. It should be noted that these standings only have an historical aim but no sport signification because the comparison between the achievements of swimmers of different generations is always unfair for several reasons: 1. The period of time. The Olympic Games were not organised in 1916, 1940 and 1944 2. The evolution of the programme. -

Boxing, Governance and Western Law
An Outlaw Practice: Boxing, Governance and Western Law Ian J*M. Warren A Thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Human Movement, Performance and Recreation Victoria University 2005 FTS THESIS 344.099 WAR 30001008090740 Warren, Ian J. M An outlaw practice : boxing, governance and western law Abstract This investigation examines the uses of Western law to regulate and at times outlaw the sport of boxing. Drawing on a primary sample of two hundred and one reported judicial decisions canvassing the breadth of recognised legal categories, and an allied range fight lore supporting, opposing or critically reviewing the sport's development since the beginning of the nineteenth century, discernible evolutionary trends in Western law, language and modern sport are identified. Emphasis is placed on prominent intersections between public and private legal rules, their enforcement, paternalism and various evolutionary developments in fight culture in recorded English, New Zealand, United States, Australian and Canadian sources. Fower, governance and regulation are explored alongside pertinent ethical, literary and medical debates spanning two hundred years of Western boxing history. & Acknowledgements and Declaration This has been a very solitary endeavour.
