QMs- Deepak Gopinath & Mayank Kowshik
The Olympics are an event that happens every four years that involves many countries and is viewed by millions of people. Every Olympics there has been some type of ethical problem such as substance abuse, bribery, and sexual violence. The IOC needs to do a better job of regulating these problems and having higher consequences if acts are breached. From an athletic standpoint, I don't understand why someone would train for four years and have it all thrown away after one mistake.

The Nordic Combined Fund is a non profit organization that was established primarily to support the athletes at the tier just below the top athletes on the US Nordic Combined Team that are identified as the next generation to represent the United States in competitions around the world.
For past few weeks every day one of my office friends asks me in front of everyone the same question - “So, how many medals did India win?” and then smiles. Finally India opened its account with a bronze by Sakshi Mallik and tomorrow PV Sindhu will play in the gold medal match against Spaniard. It is a matter of immense pride for us that athletes are able to give their best despite negligible help from Govt. authorities. India is a country of 1.2 Billion people and winning a couple of medals and taking pride in it doesn’t add to the equation. Yes, it doesn’t but what adds to the equation is that there are winners despite lack of resources.

The origin of the ancient Olympic Games is lost the midst of pre-history, but for many centuries they
were only a festival of the Greek people. The Games were first held in honour of the Greek God, Zeus in 776
BC in the plain of kingdom of Elis, nestled in lush valley between the Alpheus River and Mount Kronion, 15
km from the Ionian Sea. The Olympiad celebrated that year was considered as the first and was used to date
subsequent historic events.
