sTAFF WRITER ATHENS, Greece The oft-maligned U.S. Olympic Committee was feeling good about itself Sunday, and two numbers were at the root of the self-congratulatory mood. 103 the number of medals the chart-topping American athletes won at the Athens Olympics. the number of Americans athletes to test positive here, so far, for doping. ``This will go down as one of the greatest performances ever by a U.S. Olympic team,'' said Jim Scherr, USOC chief executive. ``Our goal was to achieve 100 medals, and that was a total team effort,'' said Herman Frazier, chef de mission for the U.S. team. The U.S. has finished atop the medals table at three consecutive Olympics, and its total here beat both Sydney 2000 (97) and Atlanta 1996 (101) though the 36 golds here lagged behind Sydney (40) and Atlanta (44).

If you think of handball only as a wall sport played with a little rubber ball you're an American... and you're missing a great game! Wall handball is played against a wall, beach handball is played on the beach and team handball or fieldball, uses a smaller version of a soccer (foot)ball, a court, goals for scoring and, well, teamwork. Team handball is a mix of basketball and soccer , fast paced and physically demanding . Men's handball became an Olympic sport in 1936 but was dropped and then restored in 1972. The women's events were officially added in 1976. Field Handball is one of the most popular spectator sports at the Summer Olympic Games, and f you've never seen it played, take the virtual tour...

The Ancient Olympic Games
Although the ancient Olympic games were first recorded in 776 BC, they originated at least a century before that and possibly as early as the 13th century BC. One Greek legend said that the great Herakles (Hercules, in the Roman form) won a race at Olympia, a plain in the small state of Elis, and then decreed that the race should be re-enacted every four years. Another said that Zeus himself had originated the festival after defeating Cronus for the sovereignty of heaven. Olympic Gymnasium 776 BC The more likely story is that the Olympic festival was a local religious event until 884 BC, when Iphitus, the king of Elis, decided to turn it into a broader, pan-Hellenic festival. To accomplish that, he entered into a temporary truce with other rulers, allowing athletes and others to travel peacefully to Olympia while the festival was going on. The Greeks based their chronology on four-year periods called Olympiads, and the Olympic festival marked the beginning of each Olympiad. Evidently, the festival was reorganized in 776 BC, which was considered the start of the first Olympiad.

    Olympic Motto
    The Olympic motto "Citius, Altius, Fortius" is Latin for "Faster, Higher, Braver," but is universally accepted to mean "Swifter, Higher, Stronger." Olympic Creed The words of the Olympic Creed are attributed to Baron Pierre de Coubertin, the founder of the modern Olympic Games. "The most important thing in the Olympic Games is not the win but to take part, just as the most important thing in life is not the triumph, but the struggle. The essential thing is not to have conquered but to have fought well." De Coubertin adopted, and later quoted, this creed after hearing Ethelbert Talbot, the Bishop of Central Pennsylvania, speak at St. Paul's Cathedral on July 19, 1908, during the London Games. The service was given for the Olympic athletes, who were all invited. Talbot's exact words that day were: "The important thing in these Olympics is not so much winning as taking part."

    The 2004 Summer olympic Games hosted the world s finest athletes and brought together soccer, swimming, track and field, and wheelchair team handball.
    http://www.ndsaonline.org/history.htm
    The Historical Perspective of the
    National Disability Sports Alliance
    The impact of sports on today's society was never more evident than during the XXVIII Olympiad in Athens, Greece. The 2004 Summer Olympic Games hosted the world's finest athletes and brought together people and nations through the inspiration and talent of the competitors. The remarkable human achievement that we witness every four years during the Games are testimony to their importance. The world embraces the talented and successful athlete.
    The 2004 Olympic Games, spectacular in its diversity, also offered
    numerous spectators a glimpse of tomorrow. Athletes with physical disabilities were provided the opportunity to compete at the same event sites as their non-disabled counterparts and were housed in the same Olympic Village. The 2004 PARALYMPIC GAMES took place in Athens, Greece, exactly three weeks after the Summer Olympic Games.
    Participation in the Olympic Games happens only after a sport has developed a strong international acceptance. Sports for the physically challenged athlete have only recently started to receive this universal acknowledgment. The aforementioned PARALYMPIC GAMES brought together over 3,750 athletes from more than 120 countries. The international contenders in this event competed in 24 different sports that included track and field, swimming, powerlifting, wrestling, archery, cycling, soccer, table tennis, and wheelchair basketball. In each event athletes are classified by the nature and degree of their physical disability. These programs have now evolved from a fun and games recreational philosophy into highly structured and meaningful competitions at the international level.

    by L. Brent Bozell III
    October 05, 2000 Some like to think of the Olympic Games as the non-political antidote to geopolitical strife. Not so. On the official, bureaucratic level, ideology and the Olympics are becoming increasingly, and ever more ridiculously, intertwined. Take the distribution of 51 condoms to each competitor in Sydney. "The contraceptives," reported the London newspaper the Mirror, "were issued in a variety of styles, fruit flavors, and textures – including one called ‘rough rider.’" Why 51 and not 49, or 52? Because, silly, the Games spanned 17 days and the athletes needed a daily regimen of…three. This politically correct stunt became fodder for jokes, and deservingly so. Jay Leno quipped that "the last time anyone was given 51 condoms [was] when Clinton visited the Miss America pageant. Remember, Puerto Rico was there." But handing out contraception under such circumstances – presumably, most residents of the Olympic Village didn’t know one another before they moved in makes a statement about condoned sexual behavior which would make Hugh Hefner very proud indeed. Then there was the joint appearance at the opening ceremonies of the South Korean and North Korean teams, marching behind the flag – a blue outline of the Korean peninsula on a field of white – of neither country. The crowd of 110,000 at Stadium Australia cheered and applauded heartily, and Olympic boss Juan Antonio Samaranch declared that the march-in symbolized "friendship" and "peace."

    Meg Sanders Position:
    Associate Head Coach
    Experience:
    Second Year at ASU Alma Mater: Cal State Fullerton '85 Leaving a great situation is never easy, but for Meg Sanders who came to Arizona State from Northern Arizona as the all-time winningest coach in Lumberjack history last year, the opportunity in Tempe was too much to turn down. Sanders enters her second year as ASU's associate head coach after spending the previous 10 years at NAU. She served as an assistant coach for then head coach Charli Turner Thorne for three years (1993-96) and then took over for Turner Thorne at the helm for the next seven seasons (1997-2003). In her seven years as head coach at NAU, Sanders turned in a 107-92 record and led the Lumberjacks to three of the four best seasons in the program's history (22-6 in 1997-98, 17-11 in 1996-97 and 17-11 in 2001-02). In 1997-98, she became the first coach to lead NAU to a 20-win season, the first to win a conference title, the first to be named Big Sky Conference Coach of the Year and the first to defeat the University of Montana. "It was very tough to leave Northern Arizona and Flagstaff, but I am excited for what is ahead at ASU," Sanders said. "Charli and I talked at great length about what a great place ASU is, and when I came here and saw the resources and people and everything that is taking place in this program, I knew it was a special place. When I saw how driven the players are and how hard they are willing to work, I knew it was an environment any coach would dream to be in. Our goals at ASU are so high but so realistic, and to be able to work with these student-athletes and Charli and her staff, it was a golden opportunity I couldn't turn down."

    History of handball in Egypt
    The Egyptian Handball Federation (EHF) was founded in 1957 and joined the International Handball Federation in 1960. The first official championship to be held in Egypt was the Gezira Cup and Egypt played its first international match versus Yugoslavia in 1960. The latter won 29-17. The EHF then sent its first delegation abroad to participate in Yugoslavia's international trainers school. In 1961, the first Egyptian national team left for Yugoslavia, where it played two matches. Egypt was defeated 18-11 by Romania and 8-3 by Yugoslavia. The same year, Egypt won the Arab Games competition held in Morocco. By the end of the year, the Egyptian national team, trained under the supervision of head coach Mounir Gergeis, played a friendly match in Egypt versus Germany. The Germans won 18-15. In Germany, Egypt played two games, which were again won by the Germans 19-11 and 20-12.
