Total eight (8) places will be awarded to NOCs through this tournament, which means that the 1st placed contestant will qualify their NOCs places for 2012 Olympic Games provided that at least four (4) contestants participate in pertinent weight division. The World Taekwondo Federation and the Organizing Committee will do its utmost effort for successful organization of the tournament.

  • Castrovince | October 23Rd, 2016 CLEVELAND -- the Baseball Season Ends with Someone Else Celebrating
    C's the day before: Chicago, Cleveland ready By Anthony Castrovince / MLB.com | @castrovince | October 23rd, 2016 CLEVELAND -- The baseball season ends with someone else celebrating. That's just how it is for fans of the Indians and Cubs. And then winter begins, and, to paraphrase the great meteorologist Phil Connors from "Groundhog Day," it is cold, it is gray and it lasts the rest of your life. The city of Cleveland has had 68 of those salt-spreading, ice-chopping, snow-shoveling winters between Tribe titles, while Chicagoans with an affinity for the North Siders have all been biding their time in the wintry winds since, in all probability, well before birth. Remarkably, it's been 108 years since the Cubs were last on top of the baseball world. So if patience is a virtue, the Cubs and Tribe are as virtuous as they come. And the 2016 World Series that arrives with Monday's Media Day - - the pinch-us, we're-really-here appetizer to Tuesday's intensely anticipated Game 1 at Progressive Field -- is one pitting fan bases of shared circumstances and sentiments against each other. These are two cities, separated by just 350 miles, on the Great Lakes with no great shakes in the realm of baseball background, and that has instilled in their people a common and eventually unmet refrain of "Why not us?" But for one of them, the tide will soon turn and so, too, will the response: "Really? Us?" Yes, you. Imagine what that would feel like for Norman Rosen. He's 90 years old and wise to the patience required of Cubs fandom.

  • Oceania Regional Umpire Report 2011
    OCEANIA REGION UMPIRE ACTIVITY REPORT TO THE 2011 ISF CONGRESS, OKLAHOMA, USA By Oceania Regional Coordinator Wayne Saunders Executive Summary Oceania is geographically spread over both the Northern and Southern hemispheres and has no regular historic regional competition. With more frequent ISF World Championship qualifiers there is a realistic opportunity for more regular international competition. However with the restriction of appointing only ISF certified umpires to ISF World Championship qualifiers there is little opportunity for umpires outside of Australia and New Zealand to be assigned. In Oceania there is a real need to revert back to allowing competing National Federations the right to select a suitably capable umpire to be assigned to ISF regional competitions. Communications With such a widely dispersed membership there is much reliance on electronic communications and access to training material available through ISF UmpSchool. The identification of an Umpire-in-Chief in more National Federations has provided the opportunity to increase direct communications with and between umpiring programmes. SKYPE video conferencing - Bob Stanton participated in the pitching presentation to the 2010 SNZ National Umpire Staff meeting and again at the 2011 meeting where current ISF umpiring matters were discussed with both the New Zealand and Australian National Umpiring Staff’s. Activity reports were received from Australia, Papua New Guinea and New Zealand and are attached. Pacific Games Softball was not included in the 2011 Pacific Games held in New Caledonia. The 2015 games to be hosted by Papua New Guinea will see a strong push by the hosts for softball to be reinstated. Regional Exchanges The Trans Tasman umpire exchange between Australia and New Zealand continues.

INTRODUCTION The Native American team name and mascot controversy has dismpted the world of American sports for more than six decades. In the 1940s, the National Congress of American Indians (NCAI) began a campaign against a variety of negative and unfiattering stereotypes of Indians in American culture.' Over time, the campaign began to focus on the use of Native American team names—like Indians and Redskins—and mascots by college and professional sports teams.2 The NCAI's basic argument was that the use of such names, mascots, and logos was offensive and *J.
