The Olympic
On June 23, 1894,
The modern Olympic Games were born in Sorbonne, Paris.
To encourage all people in the world, regardless of gender, age or sporting skill,
To participate in sports activities,
It is another form of Olympic spirit.
As early as 2000 years ago, the Olympic Games, as a healthy and upward sports competition, arose in the sacred Olympic, and it became a precious spiritual and cultural wealth offered to mankind by the ancient Greeks. Today, the Olympic movement has gone far beyond the scope of sports competition, its goal is not to let a few people to choose the gold medal, but to provide opportunities for all people, people of all ages and genders to exercise.
Public participation, even “the lowest citizen” should be able to “enjoy” this spirit, participation is the basis, without participation, there can be no Olympic ideals, principles and purposes. Now physical exercise has been more and more close to the daily life, it does not belong to a specific group, has unlimited fit for the public. In his 1936 Olympic speech, Pierre DE coubertin said: “the important thing in the Olympic Games is not victory, but participation. The essence of life is not to get, but to struggle.” This principle has been widely accepted by athletes and the general public around the world.
Nowadays, the Olympics has become a common aspiration, expectation and a common wish of all mankind.The exciting games, the training of young volunteers, the construction of sports venues, the conception of urban planning, the splendid artistic performances and the broadcasting and watching of the games all become the precious Olympic legacy.
