Sport In Kazakstan 3 gold medals at the winter olympic games, silver At the sportsand-athletics contestamong NIS boxers, swimmers, fencers, women s volley-ball team, sportsmen http://members.tripod.com/~kz2000/sport/sportreview.html
Extractions: var cm_role = "live" var cm_host = "tripod.lycos.com" var cm_taxid = "/memberembedded" Sport Kazakstan scored many a spectacular victory at the Olympic Games, at various world championships, cup-ties, Asian Games. Thus, in 1994 Kazakstani sportsmen 122 times rose upon the podium of major international competitions. A fair example for perspective Olympic champions would, no doubt, serve the unprecedented success scored by brilliant skier Vladimir Smirnov who won all supreme sports titles. T cap it all he won the gold Olympic medal at the most prestigious 50 km race held in Lillehammer. One has every ground to refer Daulet Turlykhanov to genuine leaders of Kazakstan. Seven-fold USSR champion, prize-winner of Olympic games in Seoul and Barcelona-such was by far incomplete list of athlet's achievements when he became chief coach of the Kazakstan's national team in Graeco-Roman wrestling. Even being the chief coach Turlykhanov did not abandon competitions on the carpet. The result was a golden medal at the world championship. At the Asian Games in Hiroshima Daulet he too won the championships. Good luck followed the Kazakstanis at their debut in Asian games of 1994 in Hiroshima. Our sportsmen took part in 28 events of the Asiade and won 25 gold, 26 silver and 26 bronze medals. The year of 1995 has also brought a pretty fair number of sport records. Apart from brilliant achievements gained by Vladimir Smirnov in ski racing who won 3 gold medals at the winter Olympic games, silver prize-winners of world championships became skater Lyudmila Prokasheva, track-and-field athletes Olga Shishigina and Igor Potapovich, boxer Bulat Zhumadilov. Cup-tie prizes have been won by the Kazakstanis in such events as shooting, modern pentathlon, diving and weightlifting. At the sports-and-athletics contest among NIS countries in Sanc-Petersburg, the team of Kazakstan won 65 medals including 19 gold ones. Champions at the contest became boxers, swimmers, fencers, women's volley-ball team, sportsmen representing taekwaendo and callistenics. On the podium of honour rose Kazakstani prize-winners in track-and-field athletics, diving and free-style and Graeco-Roman wrestling.

Extractions: In 1895, William G. Morgan, an instructor at the Young Men's Christian Association (YMCA) in Holyoke, Mass., decided to blend elements of basketball, baseball, tennis, and handball to create a game for his classes of businessmen which would demand less physical contact than basketball. He created the game of Volleyball (at that time called mintonette). Morgan borrowed the net from tennis, and raised it 6 feet 6 inches above the floor, just above the average man's head.

Extractions: Ingenuity, concern led to "less strenuous sport for businessmen" CHICAGO, Sep. 1¾ In sports, as in other endeavors, necessity is often the mother of invention. So it was with one of today's most popular Olympic sports, volleyball. Like basketball before it, volleyball comes with an unusual story and, like basketball, it was invented at the YMCA, a charitable community service organization that has been at the forefront of community service for 150 years. In fact, at the urging of the YMCA in 1957, volleyball became an Olympic sport with the first Olympic volleyball matches played at the 1964 Tokyo games Volleyball - for businessmen only? In 1891, while the newly invented basketball was creating excitement at the YMCA Training School in Springfield, Mass., another YMCA instructor, William Morgan, thought it "too strenuous for businessmen." He blended elements of basketball, tennis and handball into a new game he called "mintonette." The first game was played by middle-aged businessmen at Morgan's Holyoke, Mass., YMCA, in winter 1895. Morgan introduced the game using a borrowed tennis net raised to 6 feet, 6 inches - a head taller than the average man. The name "volley ball" was first used in 1896 to describe the back-and-forth manner in which the ball flew over the net. Soon the net was raised to increase the game's difficulty; its current standard height of 8 feet established in 1916.

Extractions: [Aps 2/4/04] Tlemcen - La dernière journée du 1er tour de la 23e coupe d'Afrique des clubs champions de volley-ball, disputée jeudi, à Tlemcen, a été marquée par la qualification aux demi-finales du club local, le NEST face aux FAP du Cameroun également concernés par la qualification au titre du groupe "A". Le club organisateur rejoint ainsi, a ce stade de la compétition, l'autre représentant algérien, le NR Bordj-Bou-Arreridj, à l'issue d'une rencontre en quatre sets très serrés de bout en bout (25/22, 26/24, 17/25 et 25/21), nécessitant un temps global de 83 minutes de jeu réel. Les poulains de Mohamed Tahar Zerdoumi se sont repris après leur défaite de la veille contre l'OC Kelibia (Tunisie), pour imposer leur jeu devant un adversaire coriace aux contres. Les coéquipiers de l'international Abi Ayad Nassim ont bien entamé le match en enlevant le premier set durant lequel ils ont toujours mené au score. Au cours du second set, les joueurs du NEST se sont repris pour gagner après avoir égalisé au score à 22 partout. Auparavant, les Camerounais menaient par deux à trois points d'écart.
