ANCIENT OLYMPIC GAMES in GREECE

Ancient Competitions The tradition of the Olympic Games runs back to ancient Greece. We know that the first Olympic Games took place in the town of Olympia more than 2700 years ago. There was no war in the country for these five days when sports competition took place. It was a great athletic festival of wrestling, foot- racing, discus throwing and others. The Games were organized and held up to the year of 393. Then, for more than 1700 years nothing more was heard of the Olympiads.

Revival of the Olympics The first modern Olympic Games were held in Athens in Pierre de Fredy, Baron de Coubertin, a young French nobleman, had an idea to bring the Olympic Games back to life. Only 12 countries were represented. From that time the Olympics were held more or less regularly. They take place every two years. The Games cannot take place in a country which is at war. They contribute much to the struggle for peace, understanding and trust among peoples.

A letter to the champion Dear Evgeniy, My name is Nataly. I am 15 years old and Im your greatest fan. I think you are the best skater Ive ever seen! The thing I like most about you is your fourfold tulup and the way you do it. If you ever come to Sochi I hope youll come to see me. We could meet and talk about whatever you like. Then you could answer the one question Ive always wanted to ask you how do you concentrate before competitions? I believe the best victory is the self- conquest. I know you get a lot of letters from fans but just please answer me. Yours Nataly.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION! GOOD LUCK!
