21. Dancesport In The Olympics? 12 other recognized sports, including karate, squash and roller skating, which arecurrently waiting to be admitted to the official roster of the olympic Games http://nm.essortment.com/dancesportolym_rgjl.htm

Dancesport in the Olympics? Officially referred to as Dancesport many groups are trying to get ballroom dancing included in the Olympics. Before we can even consider the issue of ballroom dancing as an Olympic sport, we must first address the issue of whether it can be considered a sport in any terms. The Olympic Commission defines a "sport" as "any activity that combines a physical effort with a certain amount of skill." Clearly dancing requires effort. A study by the University of Freiburg in Germany which was published in the November 3, 1997 issues of Forbes Magazine, showed that "a vigorous rumba burns up the same number of calories and requires the same exertion as a bicycle competition or a footrace over a similar period of time." bodyOffer(28907) Ballroom dancing (or "Dancesport" which it is now officially called) is an extremely physical activity and at an advanced level dancers need to be very fit. They may not have the bulky look of a football player or the bulging biceps of a wrestler, but there is more to fitness than over-inflated muscles. Dancers are known for their aerobic fitness. As their level of competition increases so does their speed, balance and strength. In addition, Ballroom Dancing utilizes a variety of different muscles including, rear deltoids, rhombus, glutes and calves. Great strength is needed in the upper body to maintain the tension between partners. Also, many dancers cross train with a variety of sports to keep themselves in peak physical condition.

News and results SQUASH TO TARGET 2008 OLYMPICS FOLLOWING IOC ANNOUNCEMENT The World Squash Federation (WSF) will be actively campaigning for Squash to make its debut in the 2008 Olympic Games, following news from the IOC Executive Committee meeting in Lausanne on 13th December that no new sports will be added for the 2004 Games in Athens. The committee decided that Triathlon and Taekwondo, sports that were included in this year's Sydney Olympics for the first time, will be retained - but rejected any additions. Ten sports, including Squash, have been campaigning for inclusion in the Athens Olympics for over three years but there has recently been doubt that the Organising Committee in Athens could cope with any additions. The Organising Committee in Athens could cope with any additions. The IOC has also ruled that a strict maximum of 10,000 athletes will apply to the Athens Games and this will involve a reduction on the participation in Sydney. Ted Wallbutton, WSF Chief Executive, commented: "Although we have been anticipating this result for some time, it has still come as a bitter disappointment to us. We strongly believe that Squash should be on the Olympic Programme and have made great efforts for many years to convince the International Olympic Committee of our case. We have also worked very hard make a special case for Squash in 2004. "In the final analysis, the Athens Organising Committee recommended the inclusion of only Water-Skiing and even this has been rejected by the IOC. In the midst of our own crushing disappointment, we have great sympathy for The International Water Ski Federation who came so close, only to fall at the last hurdle. We will be sending a message of heartfelt sympathy to them," Wallbutton added.

A FINAL BLOW TO CHESS DRUG TESTING? The idea that chessplayers should be subjected to drug testing in order for the game to become part of the Olympics appears to be fading fast. Earlier this year, the U.S. Olympic Committee rejected chess as a sport, delivering a blow to support for drug testing in the United States. Now the International Olympic Committee has likewise refused to accept chess and other "mind sports" as part of the Olympics. The IOC is reducing rather than increasing the number of Olympic sports, and even popular sports of a physical nature such as bowling, racquetball, water skiing and squash have now been rejected. It should now be clear to even the drug testing diehards that the chances for chess to become part of the Olympics any time in the foreseeable future are nil. It is time to stop the debate and give up on FIDE's ridiculous idea that mandating drug testing now in various tournaments will lead to eventual recognition of chess as an Olympic sport. Congratulations to Executive Director Frank Niro for being the first USCF representative to openly challenge FIDE's ridiculous drug testing policy. Hopefully our Executive Board and FIDE representatives will follow Niro's lead. It is long overdue for USCF to stand up for what is right at FIDE meetings, and I believe that the result is likely to be the end of the idea that drug testing is needed in chess.
