ITU reviews mixed relay Olympic bid proposal during Executive Board meeting
The International Triathlon Union (ITU) reviewed the proposal for mixed relay’s inclusion on
the programme for the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games as part of its Executive Board meeting inSeoul.
ITU President Marisol Casado exclusively told insidethegames last July that mixed relay has"all the ingredients" to be added to the Tokyo 2020 programme.
Documents have been sent to the International Olympic Committee (IOC) to make a formal
bid proposal, which the ITU says "emphasises the great asset that mixed relay is, not only to
our sport, but to the Olympic Movement and gender balance in sport".
The ITU had initially hoped the event, which sees two women and two men on each teamcompete in a "super-sprint" triathlon format before tagging their next team-mate, could be
included on the programme for Rio 2016.
Last month, German city Hamburg was awarded this year's ITU Mixed Relay WorldChampionships, which are due to be held from July 15 to 16.

テヘランマラソンの出場を禁止された女性たちは代わりに自分たちのルールで立ち向かいます。

Independent, UK (11 April 2017)
Women barred from Tehran marathon defy rules to complete their own race instead
Determined not to waste months of training and prove women ‘can do anything they want’,female participants created their own race route.
A group of female runners who were told at the last minute they could not take part in the
Tehran marathon risked being arrested and detained by Iran’s strict religious authorities inorder to stage their own race instead.
Around 160 women out of a total of 600 runners had registered to compete in Friday’s firstever ‘TehRUN’, a 26 mile (42 kilometre) race around the Iranian capital, including dozens offoreigners.

6However, female participants were dismayed to be told in an email from organisers three
weeks ago that they would actually not be allowed to take part, as men and women
cannot participate in sports together in the conservative country.
Iran's track and field federation provided several confusing updates before the event meaningthat the day before the race, female participants were still unclear on the rules.
Non-profit ‘Free to Run’, which encourages women and girls mainly from conflict areas toparticipate in sport and experience the outdoors, said in a Facebook post the week before thatthe authorities had been listening to the concerns of female runners and it appeared thatwomen would be allowed to compete after all.
On race day, though, it emerged that women could take part in the 10 kilometre run but not
the half marathon or full marathon, and those still wishing to complete the full distance would
have to use an indoors sports stadium track instead.

イギリスゴルフ産業協会 ゴルフ月間（2017年4月）
女性をさらにゴルフに惹き付けることの重要性

British Golf Industry Association - National Golf Month - May 2017
The importance of attracting more women into golf
It is essential for the economic health and reputation of the sport that we encourage evenmore women to get onto the nation’s golf courses and driving ranges. This is the reason why
we have decided to focus this year’s National Golf Month on encouraging women who are
new to the game to try the sport and persuading lapsed female players to revisit their local
course, club or centre.
Golf is one of the few sports in which men and women can compete alongside each other,which is something that we should be celebrating.
The gender mix of golfers in many other European countries underlines how the sport in the
UK can appeal to both men and women. According to research undertaken by consultants
KPMG in 2016, only around 15% of UK golfers are female compared to 25% in the whole ofEurope and 35% in countries such as Germany, Austria and Slovenia. Getting the UK to the
25% European average could bring 91,000 new female participants into the sport. We believethat this is a highly realistic ambition, given that another research survey, commissioned bygolf industry supplier Syngenta, has indicated that there are 3.79 million prospective female
golfers in the UK and Ireland, by which they mean non-golfers and lapsed players who whenquestioned said they would be very interested or interested in taking up golf in the next two
years. The same study suggested that the value to the sport of each new female golfer is$949 per year (equivalent to around £770), making the additional 91,000 players worth £70
million per year to the UK’s golf clubs, pros, courses and equipment manufacturers.
The evidence further suggests that increasing the number of female participants also benefits
the wider player-base by encouraging more families to take up the sport.

USA Volleyball hits back at criticism after transgender player cleared to compete
USA Volleyball has hit back at criticism over its decision to clear a transgender player tocompete as a woman and potentially earn a place on the women's Olympic team.
According to KHNL-TV, based in Hawaiian city Honolulu, male-born Tia Thompson wasapproved by USA Volleyball to compete as a woman in January.
Thompson told LifeSiteNews that she believes she is advancing the transgender cause bycompeting as a woman, adding: "I am living my truth, and if this can help other trans-athletes,
then it's worth it."But Hawaii News Now reports "there has been some push back" from the volleyballcommunity, claiming players and parents they spoke to anonymously say the situation is"unfair for teams with biological women because it creates an unrealistic level of competition".
USA Volleyball has issued a statement to clarify its position on what it describes as"inaccurate reports in recent news media articles".
"USA Volleyball supports the inclusion of transgender athletes in USA Volleyball events in thegender in which they self-identify, yet also prioritises a fair and competitive landscape," thestatement reads.
