A country with a population of 5 million is shaking with the games. Poland can only watch and be jealous
The Norwegians have already started their march after domination. The march, or actually the run – on Saturday, the first gold of the Beijing Olympics was won in the 15 km run by Therese Johaug. And it is certain that in the coming days, the Norwegians will still experience many such moments of joy. For the winter power – for 98 years, from the first Olympics in 1924, athletes from this country won 368 kr!
Norway may break another record. During the lifetime of many multimediaists
During the previous games in Pyeongchang, the Norwegians won 39 medals, thanks to which they broke the American record – the representatives USA in 2010 in Vancouver they won two cents less. According to the draft forecast by Gracenote, the Norwegians have a chance to break a record in Beijing. Analysts said that Marit Bjoergen’s compatriots would return from China with 44 medals. For this there are 21 gold, 13 silver and 10 brown.
In which disciplines do they have the best chances? More than 60 percent of the medals expected are for biathlon (15) and cross-country skiing (13). Norwegians are expected to win eight golds in each of the two disciplines. The king of the Olympics is authored by gold Theresa Johaug, who is betting up to four Olympic championships in total. The announcements also include Johannes Boe, to whom Gracenot assigns four gold circles in the biathlon. It is difficult to predict whether this will happen. This winter, the Olympic champion from Pyeongchang is not doing the best.
Gracenotes medals E also three for Tirla Magnus Riiber (nordic combined), Marte Olsbu Roeiseland (biathlon) and Johann Hoesflota Kielskie (cross-country skiing), as well as golden rings for Jarl Magnus Riiber (nordic combined), Sebastian Foss Solevaag (skiing alpe Sturla Holma Laegreida (biathlon).
Everything that is necessary, therefore, that Norway will delight the worlds with its Olympic successes. A country with seven times fewer people living in it than in Poland, will again beat other powers. – We say we’re born with foot skis. On Sundays, everyone goes out to the forest to ride them. Everyone wants to do it, said Johannes Klaebo, one of the Norwegian heroes in Korea four years ago. The man who became the youngest Olympic champion in the history of cross-country skiing. She was then exactly 21 years and 144 days. They left Pyongyang with a total of three gold coins.
Love sports since childhood. Take care of activation
Klaebo is a golden child of the Norwegian system, in which Norwegian people are eager to get involved. A few years ago, the physicist Trine Seeberg from SINTEF Digital – an institute that is part of the largest independent research agency in Scandinavia – told about it. – Elite sport is so advanced that it drives many areas – said Seeber, quoted by the Wyborcza.pl portal. – What, technologies developed with sportsmen are used, for example, in the rehabilitation of people with chronic diseases, injuries and various types of disabilities – she added.
What, especially in the Norwegian approach, to play sports is based on the idea of ”Sports Rado for All”. Americans and Canadians at their age direct their children to specific specific disciplines, e.g. Norway give a pole to the overall development. There, care is taken that parents are not exposed to enormous costs for the athlete. A decision was also made that clubs could not best rank the league or even record the results of children under 13 years of age.
– We wanted them to do sports, because that’s what they want – explained Tore Oevreboe, quoted by CNN, now head of the Norwegian Olympic mission in Beijing. – The key question is: “What can I gain from sport?” It is our responsibility to choose the right discipline for development. On the server I did not do “Okay, we need a lot to create a national team” – he emphasized. All rules relating to children’s sport in Norway will be written under the “Children’s Rights in Sport”. Its main sentence is that the youngest were to benefit from cooperation with sport every time they compete or participate in training.
– Norwegian mentality says that children should be given a chance to be children. In many countries, parents ask their children to train. In Norway, parents often train together with their children – says Tor-Arne Hetland, a cross-country skiing coach and Olympic gold medalist. Sam, as a child, worked in a variety of disciplines. – In summer we played pik non, and in winter we ate for refer -.
Almost every child plays sports
The young are vaccinated with love for activity. It is estimated that 80 percent. Norwegians belonged to some new sports coupon in childhood, and about half of the teenagers are active members. 90 percent children 6-12 years old practiced one sport – according to the Canadian article “The Globe and Mail”. There are around 12,000 clubs in the whole country. In order to generate the local sport development on them.
That the cow would allow the Norwegians to develop in sports in a unique way, to adopt the rich sports infrastructure. – In Norway, young people put a lot of emphasis on sport, many of them become very good players. Let’s take it because there are slopes close to the site or parents who will take them to training, said Norwegian Sports Minister Erna Solberg.
What is worth emphasizing, take Norwegians sometimes weaker performances. It was so, for example during the Games in Calgary in 1988. Today it is hard to imagine, but then they did not win a single gold medal! They were only 12th in the classification of the Games, they only won five. However, he quickly drew conclusions. They had to, because six years later they organized the Olympics in Lillehammer. They quickly established a modern and elite sports center known as Olympiatoppen.
Quality of life and huge expenditure on sports
– After the crisis, what had to happen. The sports system in other countries around the world is becoming more professional. The new sports center has brought a change in mentality. The chairmen of the federation were not so important anymore. We want the athletes to be taken care of by professionals who worked on a level, says Tore Oevreboe. Effect? Means an increase in expenditure on sports. In 1990 budget for the preparation of Norwegian athletes is approximately $ 2.4 million. In 2001, rise to $ 12.3 million, and now it is over $ 24.2 million.
And at the same time, it is important what living conditions the citizens of the fjords have. In fact, in all the indicators of the World Economic Forum, Norway stands out from other countries. It is about financial conditions and quality of life. Thanks to this, Norwegians can pursue their passions without any major problems. “It’s very humanistic,” says Oevreboe.
Everything for a model for the perfect education of champions in sports. Although there are those who say that the suggestions of the Norwegians are a natural thing. – Winter sports are the most popular in Norway. We did not have to take strategic actions. We have simply increased the degree of professionalisation in the disciplines we already love. This makes the recruitment process quite simple, says Tore Oevreboe.
