The World Games provide a unique setting for thousands of athletes from different sports and countries to join in a celebration of unity and friendship.

The Games are held quadrennially in the years following the Olympic Games but this is the first time that they will take place in South America. Athletes from 38 sports will compete over 11 days in Colombia’s third largest city, Cali, which hosts the multi-sport Games together with two other municipalities in the Cauca Valley, in western Colombia. The Opening Ceremony will be held on 25 July, which is the day Cali celebrates its 477th birthday. The organisers are preparing to seize the moment to promote the full breadth of sports to the world, and to bring about significant change to the nation, region and cities. The Organising Committee is committed to paying particular attention to environmental friendliness in all its actions.

Ritgerð til B.A.-prófs Sigurrós María Sigurbjörnsdóttir Maí 2010 Háskóli Íslands Hugvísindasvið Japanskt mál og menning Sumo Dwindling popularity or a new chapter? Ritgerð til B.A.-prófs Sigurrós María Sigurbjörnsdóttir Kt.: 260485-8149 Leiðbeinendur: Kaoru Umezawa og Yoshihiko Iura Maí 2010 Abstract The sport of sumo has been around in Japan in some forms since the beginning of time. It has evolved into an elegant professional sport enjoyed for hundreds of years by both emperors and commoners. When it comes to sumo there are vast differences of opinion about the sport. Some say it is much more than a sport, even go as far as calling it a lifestyle. Sumo has been described as one of the great spectator sports in the world. For a great part of 20th century sumo was the most popular spectator sport in Japan and it was not until the 1980s that baseball surpassed sumo in popularity. Recent decades it has had a decline in popularity as western entertainment has invaded the recreational landscape of Japan. The sport has though spread to countries all over the world as an amateur sport and is gaining popularity in a new field. Now at least 84 countries have their own amateur sumo circuit and are a part of the International Sumo Federation. This interest from abroad might be able to revive the popularity of the professional sumo that has been stained by scandals over and over again. The scandals include xenophobia on behalf of the Nihon Sumo Kyokai, cheating amongst sumo wrestlers, violence in the stables and gender discrimination.
