  • Using Athletes' 'S That Amateur Sports' Cannabis Policies May Be La
    Varsity Greens: The Stigmatization of Cannabis-Using Canadian University Athletes by Alec S. J. Skillings A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Department of Sociology University of Alberta © Alec S. J. Skillings, 2020 ii Abstract Cannabis was legalized in Canada on October 17, 2018. However, it remains prohibited in amateur sport. Canadian university athletes still face punishments for their use of cannabis such as, suspensions, loss of awards and scholarships, and social stigmatization. This thesis presents the results of 12 semi-structured qualitative interviews with Canadian university athletes. I utilized Grounded Theory methodology to produce and analyze the data. The results of these interviews indicate that Canadian university athletes use cannabis in a multiplicity of ways. They use it to manage pain, promote satiety, and aid in sleep. They also use it to manage stress and anxiety, and to promote optimal experiences in recreational and non-competitive activities. Moreover, cannabis is used socially between teammates. Athletes undergo a process of role engulfment, meaning that their role as an athlete demands so much time and energy that other roles, such as academic and social, become overwhelmed by their athletic one. In some cases, cannabis is used to manage the process of role engulfment and in other cases it may promote the process. Athletes are stigmatized for their cannabis use because of their unique prestige status. Public expectations, or virtual demands, are imposed on athletes which result in an elevated stigma if they are caught using the substance. The athletes I interviewed implemented a variety of techniques to conceal their use from the public, drug testing agencies, coaches, and teammates.

  • Sports of the Winter Olympics: Snowboarding
    Sports of The Winter Olympics: Snowboarding The Sport Packet #10 Halfpipe Competitors take off from the halfpipe’s rim, performing challenging aerial maneuvers, including flips, twists and spins. They complete each trick by traveling back and forth between the halfpipe’s walls. Athletes complete two runs. The event takes place in a semi-circular ditch, or half of a pipe, dug into the surface of a hill. The halfpipe is typically 110 meters long with 3 to 4 meter deep vertical sides, each on an 85 degree rounded slope. The width from wall to wall is 13 meters to 15 meters. The format for the men and women’s event is the same. Parallel Giant Slalom Two competitors race simultaneously side by side down two courses. They take two runs, switching sides after the first one. The setting of the courses, the configura- tion of the ground and the preparation of the snow must be as identical as possible. The format is the same for the men and women’s event. The vertical drop of the course must be between 120 meters and 200 meters. The number of turns should be equal to 11 percent to 15 percent of the vertical drop in meters. Athletes must navigate around gates, which are 20 meters to 25 meters apart. A gate consists of two poles - one outside pole and one turning pole. Triangular banners are fastened between the poles so lower edges of the flag touch the snow. The banner is 110 cm tall on its long side and 25 cm tall on the short side; its base length is 130 cm.

Shortly after this, figure skating was included in the 1908 London Summer Games and the 1920 Antwerp Summer Games. Likewise, ice hockey was added as an event at the 1920 Summer Olympics. Since both of these sports could be played indoors and did not rely on winter weather conditions it was obvious as to why they were the first winter sports chosen to be in the Summer Games fixture.

HISTORIQUE DU SPORT Après avoir figuré trois fois au programme des Jeux olympiques, le surf des neiges n’est plus considéré comme un « petit nouveau ». Toutefois, il a toujours la réputation d’être le plus dynamique, le plus progressif et le plus influent de tous les sports d’hiver. Il est donc difficile de savoir qui a construit la première planche à neige. Depuis qu’ils jouent dans la neige, les enfants tentent de dévaler la pente la plus proche en se tenant debout sur leur luge. On sait toutefois que la première planche à neige a été lancée sur le marché en 1965. Créé par Sherman Poppen de Muskegon, au Michigan, le « Snurfer » n’était en fait que deux skis retenus ensemble que le surfeur « stabilisait » en tenant une corde fixée à l’avant. Plus d’un demi-million de ces « jouets » ont été vendus dans les années 1960 et le Snurfer a révolutionné les sports d’hiver. Quatre autres personnes sont associées à l’origine du surf des neiges que l’on appelle aussi planche à neige.

It seems like an odd scenario for the birth of snowboarding. But the Beach Boys had just sold twelve million albums, so it’s not surprising that a land-locked inventor with several industrial patents under his belt got the surfing bug and translated it to snow. “My wife was pregnant and told me I had to do something to get my two daughters out of the house or she was going to go crazy,” said Poppen, who was fascinated by surfing, though he had never tried it.

Cognizant of the diminishing numbers of youth viewers, and the growing success of the X Games – the ‘Olympics’ of action sport – the International Olympic Committee (IOC) set about adding a selection of youth-oriented action sports into the Olympic program. In this article we offer the first in-depth discussion of the cultural politics of action sports Olympic incorporation via case studies of windsurfing, snowboarding, and bicycle motocross (BMX). Adopting a post-subcultural theoretical approach, our analysis reveals that the incorporation process, and forms of (sub)cultural contestation, is in each case unique, based on a complex and shifting set of intra- and inter-politics between key agents, namely the IOC and associated sporting bodies, media conglomerates, and the action sport cultures and industries. In so doing, our article illustrates some of the complex power struggles involved in modernizing the Olympic Games in the 21st century. Keywords action sports, cultural politics, incorporation, Olympic Games, youth culture The historical centrality of the Olympics in ‘the rise and spread of international sport’ is beyond doubt (Tomlinson, 2005: 48) and, undeniably, for many it remains the ‘world’s Corresponding author: Holly Thorpe, Department of Sport and Leisure Studies, Faculty of Education, The University of Waikato, Private Bag 3105, Hamilton 3240, New Zealand Email: [email protected] 2 Sociology greatest sporting spectacle’ (Payne, 2005: para.
