The Olympic Games

The first Olympic Games were held in Athens in 1896. There were nine sports: cycling, tennis, gymnastics, swimming, athletics, weightlifting, rowing, wrestling and shooting. Sailing was also to have taken place, but had to be cancelled because of bad weather at sea.

At the first Olympic games there were no real team sports. Then, slowly, a few team sports joined the programme. Football and hockey were the first team sports introduced into the Olympics in London in 1908. Then in 1936, at the Berlin Olympics, the Germans brought in handball and the Americans had basketball accepted as an Olympic sport.

It often happens that if the country introduces a new sport into the Olympics then goes to win the gold medal. In 1904 the Americans were the first to introduce boxing and won all seven events. Five horse-riding events were introduced into the 1912 Stockholm Olympics, and Swedish riders won four of them. And in 196, at the Tokyo Olympic, two won all three gold medals in the Judo , and also won the first women's volleyball competition.

Some new sports were recently added to the Olympics. In Los Angeles, in 1984, baseball was introduced and windsurfing became an Olympic sport.
