Henceforth, "WADA news", is to become a regular highlight giving you the opportunity to learn more about the life, the achievements and the projects of WADA.

The Netherlands initially did better in the IOC membership competition, too. Baron Fritz van Tuijll van Serooskerken was the first IOC representative from the Low Countries, though he was not a member right from the start; this Dutch nobleman joined the International Olympic Committee in 1898, two years after its formation, to become the first Dutch IOC member. Baron Van Tuijll is still a great name in Dutch sporting history; in 1912 he founded a Dutch branch of the Olympic Movement and became its first president. However, it was not long before Belgium caught up. There were no Belgians among the 13 men – even today, women members are still few and far between – who made up the first International Olympic Committee in 1894, but thanks to the efforts of Count Henri de Baillet-Latour, who joined the IOC in 1903, the Olympic Movement became the key international point of reference for sport in the Catholic south. The Belgian Olympic Committee was formed three years later – a year af- ter Belgium, thanks to the efforts of King Leopold II, had played host to the prestigious Olympic Congress.

  • Histoire Du Judo
    • HISTOIRE DU JUDO Le Judo, une inspiration de la nature En observant les branches chargées de neige et voyant les plus grosses casser sous le poids de l’agresseur naturel et les plus souples s’en débarrasser en pliant, un moine japonais fit le constat suivant : le souple peut vaincre le fort. S’inspirant de cette observation et des techniques de combat des samouraïs, Jigoro KANO posa en 1882 les principes fondateurs d’une nouvelle discipline : le Judo, littéralement « voie de la souplesse » . En proposant un développement physique, moral et spirituel, le Judo permet aux judokas de s’épanouir en harmonie avec eux-mêmes et surtout avec les autres. En France , le judo apparaît dans les années trente, mais il se développe surtout après la deuxième guerre mondiale sous l’impulsion de Maître KAWAISHI et de Paul BONET-MAURY, président-fondateur de la Fédération Française de Judo en décembre 1946. Franchi en 2003, le cap des 580 000 licenciés place désormais la FFJDA comme la troisième fédération « olympique » en France. Cette réussite est l’histoire d’une passion partagée depuis toujours par tous les acteurs du Judo français, dirigeants, professeurs et pratiquants dans le respect des valeurs morales conformes à l’éthique du Judo. A partir des années 60, le courant sportif devient dominant. Le judo est inscrit au programme des Jeux Olympiques de Tokyo en 1964. Brillants lors des compétitions européennes, les judokas français obtiennent leurs premiers succès en 1972 aux Jeux de Munich, puis au Championnat du monde de Vienne en 1975 où Jean-Luc ROUGE devient le premier champion du Monde français.

  • People's Republic of China the Olympics Countdown
    China: The Olympics Countdown 1 People’s Republic of China The Olympics countdown – crackdown on activists threatens Olympics legacy Introduction With little more than four months to go before the Beijing Olympics, few substantial reforms have been introduced that will have a significant, positive impact on human rights in China.1 This is particularly apparent in the plight of individual activists and journalists, who have bravely sought to expose ongoing human rights abuses and call on the government to address them. Recent measures taken by the authorities to detain, prosecute and imprison those who raise human rights concerns suggest that, to date, the Olympic Games has failed to act as a catalyst for reform. Unless the Chinese authorities take steps to redress the situation urgently, a positive human rights legacy for the Beijing Olympics looks increasingly beyond reach. It is increasingly clear that much of the current wave of repression is occurring not in spite of the Olympics, but actually because of the Olympics. Peaceful human rights activists, and others who have publicly criticised official government policy, have been targeted in the official pre-Olympics ‘clean up’, in an apparent attempt to portray a ‘stable’ or ‘harmonious’ image to the world by August 2008. Recent official assertions of a ‘terrorist’ plot to attack the Olympic Games have given prominence to potential security threats to the Olympics, but a failure to back up such assertions with concrete evidence increases suspicions that the authorities are overstating such threats in an attempt to justify the current crackdown. Several peaceful activists, including those profiled in this series of reports, remain imprisoned or held under tight police surveillance.

Like 178 4 Dutchman reacts angrily to questions on Armstrong testing Former UCI President Hein Verbruggen has ruled out taking legal action against Tyler Hamilton despite the former rider substantiating Floyd Landis' allegations of past corruption within the UCI. Cycling's governing body is suing Landis for defamation after he alleged that the UCI had covered up a positive test for Lance Armstrong during the 2001 Tour de Suisse and protected riders. Both Armstrong and the UCI have denied the allegations while Landis has yet to see his case come to light in court. The UCI is also in the midst of legal proceedings against the former Sunday Times and "Rough Ride" author Paul Kimmage, who received a subpoena on Wednesday from the Est Vaudois district court, which is based in Vevey, near UCI Hein Verbruggen headquarters at Aigle. The case is to be heard on December 12.
