A SPECTICAL OF SPORTSMANSHIP:
THE SUMMER OLYMPICS
The Summer Olympic Games are a major international multi-sport event held every four years, and the International Olympic Committee (IOC) oversees this premier competition. The Summer Olympics unite thousands of athletes worldwide to compete in multiple disciplines.
The modern Olympic Games originated in Olympia, Greece, between the 8th century BC and the 4th century AD. The modern Olympic movement began with the founding of the IOC by Pierre de Coubertin in 1894, and the first modern Summer Olympics were held in Athens, Greece, in 1896.
Since their inception, the Summer Olympics have been held every four years, except for 1916, 1940, and 1944, due to World War I and II.
The Summer Olympic Games have grown significantly in size and popularity over the years, expanding to include more sports and an increasing number of athletes.
Paris, France, will host the games in 2024, followed by Los Angeles, California, in the United States in 2028.
The Summer Olympic Games feature athletics, aquatics (swimming, diving, synchronized swimming, and water polo), gymnastics, cycling, basketball, soccer, volleyball, and many more. The sports program has evolved, adding new sports and removing others to ensure that the Games remain relevant and appealing to a global audience.
In addition to athletic competition, the Summer Olympics include various cultural and educational programs designed to promote peace, unity, and understanding among the participating nations.
The Olympic Games are recognized worldwide as a symbol of sportsmanship and international cooperation.
