“CONQUERING THE FUTURE
BY PRESERVING THE PAST”
LANGUAGE
OF
SPORT
“ Sport is a universal language.
At it’s best it can bring people together, no matter
what their origin, background, religious beliefs or
economic status.
And when young people participate in sports or have
access to physical education, they can experience real
exhilaration, even as they learn the ideals of
teamwork and tolerance.
That is why the United Nations is turning more and
more to the world of sport for help in our work for
peace and our efforts to achieve and Millennium
Development Goals. “
- UN Secretary-General : KOFI ANNAN
POWER OF SPORT
“Sport has the Power to Change the World,
The Power to Inspire,
The Power to Unite People
In a way little else can.
It speaks to people in a language they understand.
Sport can create hope,
Where there was once only despair.
It breaks down racial barriers.
It laughs in the face of Discrimination”.
The beloved, MADIBA : NELSON MANDELA
VICTORY
OF
SPORT

Rather a true discovery of own abilities and
A unique encounter with the coin-side of self.”
