THE SPECIAL OLYMPICS MOVEMENT

Forty years ago a researcher at the University of Toronto conducted a study of themotor-skill development and fitness levels of children with intellectual disabilities.

He demonstrated that their deficits in coordination and fitness were a result of asedentary life style, not a consequence of their disabilities. He believed, moreover, thata sport program, not a fitness regimen, would most effectively address the needs ofpeople with intellectual disabilities.

The research scientist, Dr. Frank Hayden, went on to develop his ideas under theauspices of The Kennedy Foundation in Washington, DC.

The Result: An international sport organization, now firmly established in over 150countries, with an enrollment of over two million athletes world-wide. This is SpecialOlympics.

Studies have shown that Special Olympics has a positive impact on the lives ofindividuals with an intellectual disability and their families. Through its sport programsSpecial Olympics has shown to increase the self esteem, social skills and general healthof participants.

Special Olympics Canada is dedicated to enriching the lives of Canadians with anintellectual disability through sport. It is a national not-for-profit grassroots organizationthat provides sport training and competition opportunities for 31,000 athletes of all agesand abilities. More than 10,000 certified volunteer coaches are currently involved withSpecial Olympics programs every day in virtually every community nationwide.Worldwide, Special Olympics currently serves almost 1.4 million persons withintellectual disabilities in more than 150 countries.

From Hockey For Dummies

The following content is excerpted from Hockey For Dummies, published by IDG Books Worldwide.

What is Hockey?

Hockey has been played for longer than any of us has been alive, but we can't tell you exactly when it was invented, or bywhom, because no one really knows for sure. We do have some idea of how it got started, however, and we can describe theways the game has grown and changed over the years. Once a relatively obscure recreation for people who lived in the northcountry, hockey is now played all over the world and has become one of the most popular winter sports. Frankly, we don't knowwhat we'd do without it, and millions of other people feel the same way.

The Origins of the Game

Most historians place the roots of hockey in the chilly climes of northern Europe, specifically Great Britain and France, wherefield hockey was a popular summer sport more than 500 years ago. When the ponds and lakes froze in winter, it was notunusual for the athletes who fancied that sport to play a version of it on ice.

Hockey Comes to North America

Not surprisingly, the earliest North American games were played in Canada. British soldiers stationed in Halifax, Nova Scotia,were reported to have organized contests on frozen ponds in and around that city in the 1870s, and about that same time inMontreal students from McGill University began facing off against each other in a downtown ice rink. The continent's first hockeyleague was said to have been launched in Kingston, Ontario, in 1885, and it included four teams.

Hockey became so popular that games were soon being played on a regular basis between clubs from Toronto, Ottawa, andMontreal. The English Governor General of Canada, Lord Stanley of Preston, was so impressed that in 1892 he bought a silverbowl with an interior gold finish and decreed that it be given each year to the best amateur team in Canada. That trophy, ofcourse, has come to be known as the Stanley Cup and is awarded today to the franchise that wins the National Hockey Leagueplayoffs.

When hockey was first played in Canada, the teams had nine men per side. But by the time the Stanley Cup was introduced,it was a seven-man game. The change came about accidentally in the late 1880s after a club playing in the Montreal WinterCarnival showed up two men short, and its opponent agreed to drop the same number of players on its team to even the match.In time, players began to prefer the smaller squad, and it wasn't long before that number became the standard for the sport.Each team featured one goaltender, three forwards, two defensemen, and a rover, who had the option of moving up ice on theattack or falling back to defend his goal.

The Rise of Professional Hockey

Hockey was a strictly amateur affair until 1904, when the first professional league was created - oddly enough in the UnitedStates. Known as the International Pro Hockey League, it was based in the iron-mining region of Michigan's Upper Peninsula.That folded in 1907, but then an even bigger league emerged three years later, the National Hockey Association (NHA). Andshortly after that came the Pacific Coast League (PCL). In 1914, a transcontinental championship series was arranged betweenthe two, with the winner getting the coveted cup of Lord Stanley. World War I threw the entire hockey establishment intodisarray, and the men running the NHA decided to suspend operations.

But after the war, the hockey powers that be decided to start a whole new organization that would be known as the NationalHockey League (NHL). At its inception, the NHL boasted five franchises- the Montreal Canadiens, the Montreal Wanderers, theOttawa Senators, the Quebec Bulldogs, and the Toronto Arenas. The league's first game was held Dec. 19, 1917. The clubsplayed a 22-game schedule and, picking up on a rule change instituted by the old NHA, dropped the rover and employed onlysix players on a side. Toronto finished that first season on top, and in March 1918 met the Pacific Coast League championVancouver Millionaires for the Stanley Cup. Toronto won, three games to two. Eventually the PCL folded, and at the start of the1926 season, the NHL, which at that point had ten teams, divided into two divisions and took control of the Stanley Cup.
