688 Thomas Plan
Lycée sports have always been the strong point of this traditionally prestigious school. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Head coach Thomas, who was an Olympic champion in his early years, then entered Harvard University, where he majored in sports management.
After he got his Ph.D., he didn't go to those famous professional sports teams or go to Mingpai University to coach, but came to Lyon and worked as a coach.
Because his goal is to train ten or eight Olympic champions.
And there is no way to make such a champion in college, from those professional sports teams.
Why is that?
It's not because of the low level of people in college or in the professional team.
It's impossible to have a low level, otherwise they wouldn't be able to get into the sports team at this level.
The reason is that, in principle, the Olympic Games are all amateur sports, not professional athletes.
Thomas is now the head coach, and he is the head coach at the full professor level, and he is the only full professor head coach in all the middle schools in Florida.
Even at Florida-wide universities and colleges, there are very few full professors who serve as head coaches.
Thomas has this ambition, and it can be realized in a middle school, because of the U.S. system of the Olympic Committee.
Because there is no national level in the United States as an Olympic team in the administrative organization series, the United States Olympic Committee is a non-profit organization that organizes the training of athletes and selects athletes to participate in various events.
Professional athletes are athletes who make a living from sports, and according to the International Olympic Committee, they are not allowed to compete in the Olympic Games.
When the International Olympic Committee was first established, the principle of amateurism was laid down in order to guarantee the purity of the Olympic Games.
One of the important reasons for this requirement was that the founder, Coubertin, believed that the decline of the ancient Olympic Games was due to the presence of a large number of professional athletes.
Of course, this is not all the reasons, but it is the main internal reason for the decline of the ancient European Games.
Therefore, for a long time, as a modern Olympic Games, the athletes who appeared in the Olympic Games were amateurs.
There has been a major mutation in this major trend.
After the emergence of socialist countries, unlike private ownership, people had the freedom and financial resources to carry out a large amount of training necessary to participate in the Olympic Games, as well as to travel thousands of miles to participate in the Olympic Games.
If there is no battle for victory, anyone can participate.
However, the Olympic Games are a place of competition in the world, and even if there is no impact on economic interests, it also has the influence of national honor and personal reputation.
Therefore, in order to win in the cruel competition, genius and hard training are indispensable.
In such a situation, athletes competing in the Olympic Games have to spend practically all their time training.
Under capitalism, this is naturally arranged by the financially capable families themselves.
Not only do they have financial support, but they also have the ability to make their own decisions about their careers.
In this way, it is ensured that in a country like the United States, the athletes participating in the Olympic Games are all amateurs and are not bound by any organization.
Their only constraint is the commercial effect in the future, with poor results, no advertising revenue, and certainly no advertiser interest.
If the results are good, there will be a large amount of advertising revenue, and advertisers will also flock to the door.
Therefore, good athletes can take this competitive event as a hobby, but its by-products as their main business, to participate in the Olympics as an amateur, drive their own advertising operations, and make a mess.
Even so, he, as an athlete, is still an amateur.
If he feels that he can support his career without having to go to the Olympics, or if he feels that he can live without having to work hard, then he can retire at any time and will not participate in the Olympics again.
This decision has nothing to do with anyone.
It is definitely the interests of the individual that are greater than the interests of the state.
In fact, no one in the Americans links this to national interests.
It's just a popular program that entertains itself.
Many people care about the Olympics far less than they support football, baseball, or even basketball.
Rugby, the most popular sport, is not a permanent Olympic sport at all, but only shows its face occasionally and makes a temporary addition.
It is estimated that Lao Mei does not want to get his favorite project to the Olympics at all, otherwise, with the influence of the United States, it would have gone up a long time ago, and the thunder would not have moved.
In the history of the modern Olympiad, the United States has the most overall finishes and the most first places, and has never participated in any of the races below the third-place finish.
There was only one session, because of the boycott of the Soviet Union, and bought to participate.
Even American basketball has been participating since 1992, so the basketball team of that year is called Dream Team 1, and in 2016, it was Dream Team 7.
This is also due to former IOC President Samaranch.
One of the major reforms he made when he took office was to open up to the professional world in order to attract more sponsors, broadcasters and viewers.
This is also due to the pressure of individual sports federations, their development and growth, as well as the increasing professionalization, commercialization and globalization of modern sports, will inevitably seriously affect the excitement of the Olympic Games.
To put it bluntly, it is a project that does not make money, and there are no conditions for survival except for the temporary support.
Only when someone supports it will it produce benefits and provide businesses with opportunities to make money.
In fact, this is also the most direct and effective test of whether a project has a mass base.
In this context, the national system of the Chinese kingdom is necessary and reasonable.
People are managed by the state, and the income is provided by the state, so you can't practice without money, right?
Even if you have money, you don't mean to just connect those things all day long, right?
At least those shooting events, can you do whatever you want?
For example, diving, where to find deep pools and ten-meter diving platforms?
Besides, people are also managed by the state, and they can do whatever they want from childhood to adulthood, how many can there be?
At least there are not many people who are talented and willing to endure hardships.
Most of them are descendants of farming families in remote areas.
Therefore, in China, the so-called national system is essentially no different from the business system of the United States.
In fact, regardless of the United States or China, successful athletes, in addition to their talents, in addition to hard training, are all his own volition, for this project, to pay ten times more effort and time than ordinary people.
The top athletes in the world are by no means forced.
These are all sports politics, and although Thomas knows it, he doesn't worry about it.
Just now, when he heard about the 100 million sports donation, Thomas was very excited and felt that the Olympic champion was coming to him!
