Federation and National Competitions and Results are featured here to challenge and delight. "It's not the winning, it's the taking part!"
Why do we say "it's not the winning but the taking part that counts"?
It's a phrase coined by the founder of the Olympics, Baron Pierre de Coubertin, who said "The most important thing in the Olympic Games is not winning but taking part; the essential thing in life is not conquering but fighting well." (source)
