multisport event after the Olympic Games. In 2021 the 30th occasion of this unique event will take place in Central Switzerland and Grisons. The organisation is a joint project of the six cantons of Central Switzerland Lucerne, Uri, Schwyz, Obwalden, Nidwalden and Zug, and the City of Lucerne. The programme from the 11 to 21 December 2021 comprises ten sporting disciplines, to be contested at seven event venues. Around 1600 Students aged between 17 and 25 from more than 540 universities in 50 countries are expected to attend.

It was in 1959 that FISU launched the Universiades, now the largest multi-sport event for students. Since then, a total of 29 Winter Universiades and 30 Summer Universiades have already taken place. Unlike the Olympic Games, both Universiades are held in the same year and in a two-year cycle. In March 2016, FISU assigned the 30th winter edition to Central Switzerland with Lucerne as the host city. The six cantons of Central Switzerland and the city of Lucerne founded an association for the purpose of this major project. Government representatives from each of the six cantons and Lucerne’s city council are responsible for strategic decisions under the chairmanship of Guido Graf, Cantonal Councillor Lucerne. The organising committee, directed by the Managing Director Urs Hunkeler, reports directly to this board. The organising committee works closely with Swiss University Sports. The National University Sports Federation of Switzerland is a member of FISU and is in charge of the selection of Swiss athletes for the multi-sport event. It has set itself the goal of building a strong Swiss team for the upcoming Winter Universiade at home. 1.2 History Staged every two years in a different global city, the Winter Universiade is the world's largest winter multi-sports competition for university athletes. The rich history of the Winter Universiade began in Chamonix, France in 1959. Sixteen countries and 220 athletes took part in the first edition, with six sporting disciplines: ice hockey, ice skating, alpine skiing, cross-country skiing, ski jumping and Nordic combined. Today, the programme has nine compulsory sports. The Swiss mountain village of Villars hosted the Winter Universiade’s second edition in 1962 which was a big success thanks to the support of the Swiss University Sports Association. Nearly 300 athletes from 23 nations took part, including teams from Japan, Lebanon and New Zealand. The Winter Universiade drew more than 500 athletes for the first time in Sofia, Bulgaria in 1983 and by the Sapporo 1991 edition in Japan, countries like the Soviet Union, United States and Japan were fielding delegations of more than 100 athletes each. The flawless execution of Sapporo 1991 helped Japan bring the Winter Olympics to Nagano in 1998 and paved the way for other major winter sports events in Asia. The 2005 Winter Universiade in Innsbruck, Austria, saw a record 2,223 participants from 50 countries and set the trend for night competitions. In another first at Innsbruck, women’s ski jumping was added to the programme, a full nine years ahead of its Olympic debut. In 2013, the Trentino Winter Universiade drew 2,668 competitors to the Italian Alps. Proving the Universiade as a launchpad to student-athletes’ future success, no fewer than 29 athletes who competed at Trentino went onto win medals at the Sochi Olympics, which took place just two months later. The most recent edition of the Winter Universiade in Krasnoyarsk, Russian Federation, had nearly 2,000 athletes representing a record

There is Chinese-style furniture, calligraphy and paintings, sculptures and small ornaments at the ambassador's home in Switzerland. He also displayed a box of exquisite snuff bottles collected during his tenure. Since retiring in 2008, the ambassador has enjoyed writing calligraphy at home.

It is well known that athletes from a specific region or country are dominating certain sports disciplines such as marathon running or Ironman triathlon; however, little relevant information exists on cross-country skiing. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to investigate the aspect of region and nationality in one of the largest cross-country skiing marathons in Europe, the “Engadin Ski Marathon.” All athletes ( = 197,125) who finished the “Engadin Ski Marathon” between 1998 and 2016 were considered. More than two-thirds of the finishers (72.5% in women and 69.6% in men) were Swiss skiers, followed by German, Italian, and French athletes in both sexes. Most of the Swiss finishers were from Canton of Zurich (20.5%), Grisons (19.2%), and Berne (10.3%).

Naturally, the level or degree of adaptation is dependent on the genetical endowment of an individual. However, the general trends or patterns of adaptation are identified by physiological research, and guidelines are clearly delineated of the various adaptation processes, such as adaptation to muscular endurance or maximum strength.

  • JSP 660 Sport in the UK Armed Forces Part 1
    cos JSP 660 Sport in the UK Armed Forces Part 1: Directive JSP 660 Pt 1 (V2.3 Feb 21) Foreword People lie at the heart of operational capability; attracting and retaining the right numbers of capable, motivated individuals to deliver Defence outputs is critical. This is dependent upon maintaining a credible and realistic offer that earns and retains the trust of people in Defence. In order to achieve this, all personnel must be confident that, not only will they be treated fairly, but also that their families will be treated properly and that Service veterans and their dependants will be respected and appropriately supported. Sport makes a significant contribution to the delivery of operational capability; indeed it is a core activity in the UK Armed Forces. I am therefore most eager to encourage the active participation of all ranks at all levels of sport. I am aware that the majority of sport is organised by Service personnel on a voluntary basis; knowledge of, and access to, the necessary regulation of activities can be difficult. This important document brings together the policies for, and detailed guidance on, the conduct of sport in the UK Armed Forces. I commend it to all your staff involved in sporting activity and in particular to your sports association officials who deliver sport at and above unit level. Lt Gen James Swift Chief of Defence People People Functional Owner i JSP 660 Pt 1 (V2.3 Feb 21) Preface How to use this JSP 1. JSP 660 is intended as a statement of policy on the conduct of sport in the UK Armed Forces.

  • Media Release Lucerne, 13 April 2021 Winter Universiade Is Back On
    Media Release Lucerne, 13 April 2021 Winter Universiade is back on track The Winter Universiade 2021 will open on 11 December 2021, around eleven months later than planned due to the coronavirus pandemic. Since the decision to postpone was made, the Organising Committee has worked hard to adapt the plans to the new dates. The most significant changes affect the Alpine Skiing competitions in Stoos and the closing ceremony. The budget for the Winter Universiade 2021 now amounts to CHF 42 million. The Winter Universiade is set to take place in Central Switzerland and the Grisons from 11 to 21 December 2021. The world’s largest winter multi-sport event for students will see competitors challenge for 60 sets of medals across 10 sports over 11 days of competition. “It is a privilege to have gained a second chance through the postponement and to have been able to give everyone involved something to aim for during this challenging time,” says Managing Director Urs Hunkeler. Since the decision to postpone was made at the start of November 2020, the Organising Committee has worked hard to adapt the plans to the new dates. “Our priorities have been developing the new competition programme, checking our concepts, renewing all of our contracts and revising the budget,” explains Hunkeler. Attractive competition programme Urs Hunkeler is particularly delighted that despite the postponement, the team has been able to retain all ten sports on the programme. “It was never guaranteed for many reasons, such as the fact that the Olympic Games are scheduled in February 2022. December 2021 was therefore selected as the best option for hosting the event.

  • The Using of Modern Technologies in Orienteering
    The using of modern technologies in orienteering Michal Frainšic1, Petr Špicar2, Ludmila Fialová2 1 Department of Outdoor activities, Faculty of Physical Education and Sport, Charles University, Prague, Czech Republic 2 Department of Pedagogy, Psychology and Didactics of sport, Faculty of Physical Education and Sport, Char- les University, Prague, Czech Republic Abstract The article deals with introduction and contribution of modern technologies used in a sport branch of ori- enteering sports in comparison with the past when these technologies were not used. Modern technologies contributed to expansion of orienteering sports. They made this branch of sport more attractive for both - com- petitors and spectators. Facilities like SPORTident, Trac-Trac, Emit and Racom transfered on-line results from race to competitors and spectators, who are in the race center. Thanks to those facilities spectators can also watch the race on-line on TV or on the Internet. Program OCAD made the preparation of orienteering maps and tracks faster and more effective. Modern technologies also speeded up the process of race preparation. Key words Emit, OCAD, Oorg, Open Orienteering Mapper, Purple Pen, Orienteering organiser, orienteering, orientee- ring sports, Racom, SPORTident, Trac-Trac. Souhrn Článek se věnuje představení a přínosu moderních technologií využívaných ve sportovních odvětvích orien- tačních sportů v porovnání s dobou minulou, kdy tyto technologie ještě využívány nebyly. Moderní technolo- gie se zasloužily o rozvoj orientačních sportů, toto sportovní odvětví zatraktivnily a to jak závodníkům, tak i široké veřejnosti. Zařízení SPORTident, Trac-Trac, Emit a Racom přináší okamžité výsledky a umožňují on-line přenosy výsledků trenérům, závodníkům na shromaždišti či divákům u televizní obrazovky.

  • Andermatt Swiss Alps
    ANDERMATT SWISS ALPS editorial The first time I visited Andermatt, I encountered something special: the unadulterated natural beauty of a Swiss moun- tain village in the heart of the Alps. And I was inspired – not only by the village of Andermatt, but by the whole valley. This expansive high-mountain valley, the Ursern Valley, with its wild and romantic natural landscape, inspired my vision of Andermatt Swiss Alps. Even then, it was clear to me that the soul of this region is the untouched nature. And I intend to preserve this. I see sustainability as a cornerstone upon which the develop- ment of Andermatt is based. I warmly invite you to discover the charm of the Swiss Alps. Step into a world that is closer than you think. Welcome to Andermatt Swiss Alps! Samih Sawiris Sawiris’ vision has since become reality, in the form of the new hotels, apartment buildings and chalets of Ander matt Swiss Alps, the unique golf course and the multifaceted SkiArena. The properties next to the Reuss offer guests a range of modern residential options and are sought-after investment assets as well. The portfolio rang- es from practical studios to spacious apartments and penthouses. Streets and walks in Andermatt are short – and it should stay that way: The village area next to the Reuss is car- free; an underground garage provides ample parking space. The mountain cableway terminals, shops, restau- rants and public facilities are easily accessible by foot in every season and are integrated into the village life of Andermatt. The central Piazza Gottardo also contributes to this.
