    Extractions: Step by step to "ISSF" History of the "UIT" Shooting with the rifle, pistol and shotgun has been practiced in many countries since the Middle Ages. During the 19th Century, however, shooting also developed into a sport: Associations, federations, councils, confederations, unions or organizations were formed in some countries, using different words to describe the alliance of shooters in clubs or the alliance of clubs in local, regional or national organizations. History books report of shooting competitions in some European countries as early as the 11th Century, but the modern concept of our sport began in the 19th Century with the development of shooting equipment, and several of the present day national federations were formed. At the first Olympic Games of the modern times in the year 1896 in Athens, nine different sports were placed on the program by the International Olympic Committee, and the shooting sport had the highest number of participants in these first Olympic Games. The first world championship in our sport was organized in 1897 in France, and eight national shooting federations founded the "Union Internationale des Federations et Associations Nationales de Tir" on 7th July 1907 in Zurich, Switzerland. This Union was dissolved in 1915 during World War I but was reorganized in 1921 under the new name of "Union Internationale de Tir", also using the initials, UIT.

As punishment for their roles in WW2, Japan and Germany's absence from Olympic ceremony would continue into the 1948 games in St. Moritz, Switzerland. Twenty-eight countries participated enthusiastically, and it was clear that the games had survived both the world's conflicts, and the 12-year span between the last Olympics. The IOC awarded the 1976 Olympics to Denver, Colorado, but after two years of preparation and financial squabbling, the people of Colorado refused to fund the major event through public taxes. Innsbruck offered to host the Winter Olympics only twelve years since it last played the role, and the underplayed event went off peacefully and without excessive spending.

    Extractions: History of Volleyball Volleyball was born into the world of sports in 1895 when William Morgan, director of the YMCA in Hollyoke, Mass., was casting about for a "new diversion" to supplement his organization's physical education program. He took as his basis the then popular German game called "Faustball" but reworked the rules considerably to give the new sport tighter competitive values. In 1900, volleyball crossed the border to Canada's YMCAs and regular inter-city competitions were staged in Ottawa, Montreal and Toronto. From then on, the popularity of volleyball spread throughout the world with the International YMCA movement. By the end of World War II, interest in the game had grown so much that the International Volleyball Federation (FIVB) was formed as governing committee for more than 120 national federations. The FIVB is now responsible for the organization of international championships, the adopting and improvement of rules of play, the instruction and certifying of referees and coaches and the general promotion of the game on a worldwide scale. It is the largest international sports governing body in the world, with 213 member Federations.
