A total of 41 events were Athletics at the 13th contested, of which 23 by male and 18 by female athletes. Commonwealth Games The majority of African, Asian and Caribbean countries boycotted the event due to the United Kingdom's sporting links with apartheid-era South Africa. As a result, the medallists came from only seven nations, comprising the four constituent countries of the UK, Australia, New Zealand and Canada. England easily topped the medal table with eighteen gold medals and 48 medals in total. Canada was second, with ten golds and 28 medals overall, while Australia took third place with nine golds and a total of 26 medals. The hosts Scotland won one gold and six medals while Northern Ireland (typically weak in the sport) had one of their best games, with one gold and Dates 26 July–2 August four medals overall. 1986 Host city Edinburgh, Scotland Contents Venue Meadowbank Medal summary Stadium Men Level Senior Women Events 41 Medal table Participation 417 athletes from Participation 19 nations References Records set 5 Games records ← 1982 Brisbane 1990 Auckland → Medal summary 1986 Commonwealth Games Men https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Athletics_at_the_1986_Commonwealth_Games 1/7 28/4/2020 Athletics at the 1986 Commonwealth Games -

  • 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.

Hall of Fame 1 INTRODUCTION The scottishathletics Hall of Fame was launched at the Track and Field Championships in August 2005. Olympic gold medallists Allan Wells and Eric Liddell were the inaugural inductees to the scottishathletics Hall of Fame. Wells, the 1980 Olympic 100 metres gold medallist, was there in person to accept the award, as was Patricia Russell, the daughter of Liddell, whose triumph in the 400 metres at the 1924 Olympic Games was an inspiration behind the Oscar-winning film Chariots of Fire. The legendary duo were nominated by a specially-appointed panel consisting of Andy Vince, Joan Watt and Bill Walker of scottishathletics, Mark Hollinshead, Managing Director of Sunday Mail and an on-line poll conducted via the scottishathletics website. The on-line poll resulted in the following votes: 31% voting for Allan Wells, 24% for Eric Liddell and 19% for Liz McColgan. Liz was inducted into the Hall of Fame the following year, along with the Olympic gold medallist Wyndham Halswelle.

The first 100 meters is run on the curve. The second half is on a straightaway. To run this race takes an effective strategy. At the Division 1 level I believe it is vital for the athlete to attack from the start by “getting the jump” on the rest of the field during the first 60-70 meters of the race when they are running on the curve.

  • 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

  • 1986 Commonwealth Games ------The Year of the Boycott
    1986 Commonwealth Games --------------------------------------------------------- The Year of the Boycott Aleida van der Woerd Janelle Stoter Erica Klyn-Hesselink PED 201 Dr. J. Byl March 25, 2004 The first Commonwealth Games took place in 1930 after many years of thought went into the idea of bringing athletes of the British Empire together for organized sporting events. The idea originated by Reverend Astley Cooper in 1891 when he suggested a “Pan-Britannic-Pan- Anglican Contest and Festival.”1 Hamilton, ON, Canada hosted the first events, which included eleven countries, 400 athletes, and six different sports.2 The sports included athletics, boxing, lawn bowling, rowing, swimming, and wrestling.3 Since 1930 the games have taken place every four years (except for the years surrounding World War II including 1942 and 1946) and have grown immensely in number of sporting events and participants. In 1930, the games were known as the “British Empire Games” which ended up changing names two more times before being called the Commonwealth Games. The name was changed in 1950 to “The British Empire and Commonwealth Games” and then again it changed to the “British Commonwealth Games” in 1966. Finally, in 1974 the name was changed to the “Commonwealth Games” and remains as this today.4 The Commonwealth Games is a special event considering the historic factor of the games as it is not established on geographic or climatic factors as is common with most other events.5 An interesting aspect of the games is that all of the participants (athletes and officials) can communicate together in the common language of English, which has been one of the reasons that the games are often referred to as the “Friendly Games”.6 The 1986 Commonwealth Games took place in Edinburgh, Scotland.
