This formula for a healthy life was proposed over 2000 years ago by Hippocrates, the ancient Greek physician and so-called father of medicine. Two millennia later, healthy living is just as important as ever, and more joined-up thinking that when it comes to policy-making, there could be one possible solution, according to three European Commissioners who have launched a joint call for action.1 In the European Union, 2018 was declared to be the European Year of Cultural Heritage. In its honor, 5 partners from 4 countries applied a transboundary Erasmus+ Small Collaborative Partnership project in the field of Sport, called Traditional European Sport Activities. Traditional European sports are part of our cultural heritage and excellent means of promoting health-enhancing physical activity (HEPA). Research shows that too many people across Europe are not physically active enough. This has a serious impact on general health, the frequency of preventable diseases, and the number of premature deaths. Source: https://www.wikipedia.com/oina The Erasmus+ programme made possible for us to initiate a project that can represent a benefit for the European society. It is our strongest belief that by promoting European traditional sports we contribute both to the promotion of historical and not so popular health-enhancing physical activities, as well as to keep alive traditional sport activities that are about to be forgotten in different parts of 1 https://ec.europa.eu/info/news/promoting-healthy-lifestyles-through-health-sport-education-and-food-policies_en, consulted on 1 December 2019 4 Europe. This brochure will take you on a journey to five traditional sport activities from France to Czech Republic, then to Romania and at the end to Estonia. Context: Benefits of a Healthy Lifestyle Physical activity, including regular exercise and sporting activity, is the best way of staying physically and mentally fit, helps to tackle weight and obesity issues, and plays an important part in preventing or reducing the impact of many other health-related conditions. Apart from the individual health benefits, there is evidence of the positive direct and indirect economic effects of participation in sport and physical activity.2 Physical activity is first and foremost an opportunity to have fun. Use these special moments to relax, forget about work, think about something else and change your mood. Physical activity is good for both your body and your mind, as well as adding years to your life and life to your years! An active lifestyle has many benefits. Studies show that regular physical activity not only improves the quality of your daily life, but also increases your lifespan by reducing the risk of chronic illness. Furthermore, it has been shown that physical activity is the main factor in maintaining a fit body.

Have more vitality . Are in better shape . Have better mental health . Can manage stress better . Have more self-esteem. Physical activity helps to: . Prevent and better control some risk factors for heart disease: high cholesterol, diabetes and hypertension . Improve muscle and bone health (osteoporosis prevention) . Improve sleep . Control weight. Recommendation: Physical activity guidelines advise that we need at least 2.5 hours a week of moderate to vigorous aerobic physical activity to achieve health benefits. The guidelines also recommend adding activities that target bones and muscles at least twice a week to help make your bones stronger (...)3. All these benefits can easily be achieved by involving in any of the five traditional sports we are about to explore in the next chapter. 3 https://www.dairygoodness.ca/good-health/healthy-active-living/the-benefits-of-being-active, consulted on 1 December 2019 6 Description of our project The idea of this project sprung from the common desire of all the five organisations to promote traditional sport activities in their communities by raising the interest of the youth for playing them. Our intention is to make these sport activities known and accessible for young people and adults. All the five partners have previous experience in working with young people and promoting sport activities. The partners aim to collaborate in order to commonly achieve the goals of the project. Games or sport activities less known by the large public are present in each partner country. We want to promote, for instance, in France Jeu de paume - a predecessor of today’s tennis, which, according to studies, has lost its popularity during the period between the two World Wars. In Romania, Oina is a game that still has a big popularity at national level. At the same time, it is a game poorly promoted among young people who might show interest for playing and, in this way, preserving the tradition. Țurca became a game played in the north-west region of Romania, in Maramureș, where it has its origins but it is less known at national level. Archery is a traditional sport in Estonia, popular among adults, but less performed by the youth due to the low number of experienced trainers in this sport and extensive need of equipment and open space. Vybíjená is an original Czech game and its popularity decreased because of the fast expansion of other sports. Source: Photo by Authors 7 The problem that our project is tacking is the low level of interest of young people aged 15-22 from the five communities for practicing traditional sport activities. The cause of the problem is the poor knowledge of the rules and the equipment needed to perform these activities. Together with our partners, we decided to involve the 15-22 age group as being the most effective age where young people are willing to discover new ways of spending their time and at the same time to perform and specialize in a specific area, in our case, in sport. In addition, young people of this age have the capability to understand how important it is to perform in a game or do a sport activity and recognize its benefits. The concept of this project originates from the common need of the five partners to promote traditional sport activities in their communities in order to preserve them as a part of the European cultural heritage. We aim to provide correct information for the youth regarding the required equipment and rules to play these sport activities. We created a partnership in which the knowledge and experience of each partner will be put to work for the common goal of the project. An added value to this project is represented by the intercultural impact of all our activities at the level of member staff from each organization involved during the lifetime of the project. Exchanging the concepts of each game or sport activity among all the youth workers, coaches and volunteers engaged in this project will contribute to shaping the form of a Europe united in diversity with important sportive cultural values. Traditional sports are more than physical activities; they offer socialization in the

  • The First Beautiful Game
    THE FIRST BEAUTIFUL GAME Stories of obsession in Real Tennis Roman Krznaric Ronaldson Publications September 2006 CONTENTS Introduction The Wordless Conversation From Abbots to Zealots Life in Court Serving to Gentlemen The Missionary Adventures With My Father References Acknowledgements About the author Notes 2 INTRODUCTION Bent rackets, hand-sewn balls and netted windows. Painted crowns, brass bells and penthouses. Chases, railroads and giraffes. Welcome to the curious world of real tennis. Originating in medieval Europe, the court, rules and equipment have hardly changed in four centuries. Yet this book is not a chronicle of its history, nor is it a manual on technique and strategy. It is about the players and their obsession. Over the past five years I have spoken with real tennis players about their experiences of the sport, why they play and what it means to them. I learned that most of them are fanatics, some are addicts. More than a few are eccentrics. And I found their stories revealing about the art of living: whether to pursue our passions and ambitions, how to balance work and personal life, why we need respect and equality, where we can find and create beauty. This book tells those stories in their own voices. I should admit that I am one of the fanatics, an amateur player who has named three bicycles and a car after former World Champions. I first encountered real tennis in the late 1980s when a student. At the time I was dedicated to another sport that, in my ignorance, I called ‘tennis’ – the game played at Wimbledon and in parks on sunny afternoons.

Design Option Presented by Michael David Ross Texas Tech University Spring 1978 1, INTRODUCTION 2, THE CLIENT 3, FINANCING 4, THE SITE 11 S> FACILITIES 24 ^, RESTRICTIONS 40 7, APPENDIX 54 CONTENTS INTRODUCTION THE NATURE AND SCOPE OF THE PROJECT The nature of this thesis program is the development of the most precise and complete collection of data concerning my topic, A Racquet Club for Lubbock, Texas. Some of the questions this program will answer are: What is a Racquet Club? Who this Racquet Club is for? Where is this Racquet Club located? What goes on in this club? The elements composing the physical make-up of the facility are: 1. Clubhouse A) offices B) lounge and dining C) pro-shop D) lockers and dressing facilities E) indoor tennis and racquet ball courts 2. Outdoor tennis courts This facility not only will enhance the city of Lubbock but also provide its members a com­ plex that enables them to play the game as it should be played and to savor the deepest pleas­ ure the game has to offer. HISTORY OF THE PROJECT The name and the game came from the ancient net and racquet sport known in France where it was invented, as Jeu de Paume. This sport had its origins in the Middle Ages. It is mentioned in twelfth and thirteenth century manuscripts. In the sixteenth century the game was known to be exclusively an aristo­ cratic game because of the high cost of building courts.

  • Stories from the Archives
    STORIES FROM THE ARCHIVES: The enduring popularity of tennis The popular sport of tennis descends from a game called “real tennis” or “royal tennis” that probably began in France in the 12th century. It was known as jeu de paume (game of the palm) because the ball was struck with the palm of the hand. Racquets were introduced in the 16th century. Lawn tennis, what we know today as tennis, began in Birmingham, England in the early 1860s. The first Lawn Tennis Championship was held at Wimbledon in 1877. The popularity of the game arrived in Australia in 1875 when a “real tennis” club was established in Hobart. Five years later Australia’s first tennis tournament was held at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. We can read of a tennis club at PLC Sydney in the first issue of the Aurora Australis, published in December 1893. Tennis court at PLC, 1894 “B” Tennis Team, 1913 Tildesley Shield The Tildesley Tennis Shield competition was first held in 1918. It is named after Miss Evelyn Mary Tildesley, who was then the Headmistress of Normanhurst School, in Ashfield. She donated a beautiful oak and bronze shield that was to be awarded to the winning independent girls’ school. It is the most coveted trophy in school tennis because it teaches the girls to play for their school rather than for themselves, its special value lying in the fact that at least 12 girls, with a maximum of 32, according to the number of pupils over 12 years of age, compete for the trophy, thereby giving a 1 number of the younger girls an opportunity of representing their school which they would not otherwise get until much later.
