Book Synopsis The Youth Olympic Games by : Dag Vidar Hanstad
Download or read book The Youth Olympic Games written by Dag Vidar Hanstad and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-06-05 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first summer Youth Olympic Games (YOG) were held in Singapore in 2010 and the first winter Youth Olympic Games in Innsbruck in 2012. The IOC hopes that the YOG will encourage young people to be more active and that they will bring the Olympic movement closer to its original founding values. This is the first book to be published on the Youth Olympic Games. It critically examines the origins of the Games and the motives of the Games organisers, as well as the organisation and management of the Games and their wider impact and significance. The first part of the book discusses the relationship between the YOG and the ideology of Olympism, in the context of broader developments in youth sport competitions. The second part investigates a wide range of managerial aspects including the bidding process, finance, the prominent role of young people on the organising committees and as volunteers, the role of media and sponsors, and the distinctive competition structure. The final part of the book assesses the current and likely future impact of the YOG on the host cities and countries, the IOC and on national youth sport policies. The Youth Olympic Games is essential reading for any researcher, advanced student or policy maker with an interest in Olympic Studies, sports development, sport policy, youth sport or event management.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

The Encyclopedia of International Games captures (in one alphabetical sequence) the histories of these games, many of them for the first time. The work includes major regional events such as the African, Asian, Arab, South Pacific, and Pan American Games; competitions such as the Indian Ocean Island Games, Arctic Winter Games, Island Games, and Games of the Small Countries of Europe; specific populations or professions such as the North American Indigenous Games, Maccabiah Games, World Military Games, World Police and Fire Games, and World Medical and Health Games; and Special Olympics, the Paralympics, games for the blind, and other regional games.

Book Synopsis Olympism: The Global Vision by : Boria Majumdar
Download or read book Olympism: The Global Vision written by Boria Majumdar and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-09-13 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The collection starts from the premise that Olympism and the Olympic Games make sense only when they are placed within the broader national, colonial and post colonial contexts and argues that sport not only influences politics and vice-versa, but that the two are inseparable. Sport is not only political; it is politics. It is also culture and art. This collaboration is a first in global publishing, a mine of information for scholars, students and analysts. It demonstrates that Olympism and the Olympic movement in the modern context has been, and continues to be, socially relevant and politically important. Studies focus on national encounters with Olympism and the Olympic movement, with equal attention paid to document the growing nexus between sports and the media; sports reportage; as well as women and sports. Olympism asserts that the Olympic movement was, and is, of central importance to twentieth and twenty-first century societies. Finally, the collection demonstrates that the essence of Olympism and the Olympic movement is important only in so far as it affects societies surrounding it. This book was published as a special issue of the International Journal of the History of Sport.

Book Synopsis The Youth Olympic Games by : Milena M. Parent

Book excerpt: On 6 July 2007 in Guatemala, the International Olympic Committee (IOC)'s members approved the proposal put forth by its then President, Jacques Rogge, to create what would be known as the Youth Olympic Games (YOG), in both a summer and winter format. Created to address the decline in physical activity and increased obesity that President Rogge had observed among young people, the YOG were to meet eight different objectives, be a multi-sport event of moderate size - scheduled over 12 days for the Summer YOG and 10 days for the Winter YOG - and have the young athletes stay for the whole period. The YOG editions would alternate every two years between the summer and winter editions, and young athletes aged 15 to 18 in the year the event was to be hosted would qualify to participate based on International Sports Federation qualifications. Moreover, a cultural and educational programme was created, in which the athletes would participate in addition to their sports competitions. Finally, the IOC's vision for the YOG was to see the young athletes become Young Olympians and promote the Olympic values and Olympism once they returned to their communities. This chapter examines the YOG's initial concept and evolution, and presents the event's key outcomes, impacts, and legacies. Throughout, the chapter highlights the sporting, learning, and operational innovations seen in the YOG, which have become a testing ground for the Olympic Summer and Winter Games. For instance, though still focused on young athletes aged 15 to 18, the YOG now see the young athletes stay in two waves. The IOC has refined its vision for the event and reduced the objectives to four. Finally, the YOG concept has evolved to "Compete, Learn & Share."

Book Synopsis Los Angeles and the Summer Olympic Games by : Eva Kassens Noor
Download or read book Los Angeles and the Summer Olympic Games written by Eva Kassens Noor and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-01-22 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book describes the three planning approaches and legacy impacts for the Olympic Games in one locale: the city of Los Angeles, USA. The author critically compares the similarities and differences of the LA Olympics by reviewing the 1932 and 1984 Olympics and by analyzing the concurrent planning process for the 2028 Olympics. The author unravels the conditions that make (or do not make) LA28’s argument “we have staged the Games before, we can do it again” compelling. Setting the bid’s promises into the contemporary local and global mega-event contexts, the author analyzes why LA won the bids, how those wins allowed LA to negotiate concessions with the IOC and NOC, and how legacies were planned, executed, and ultimately evolved. The author concludes with a prediction which 2028 legacy promises might and might not be fulfilled given the local and international Olympic contexts.
