History of Taiwan's Participation in Universiade
2017 Taipei Summer Universiade
Universiade 為世界大學運動會專有英文名詞，擷取了大學 (University) 以及古代奧林匹 克運動用來紀年的Olympiad 而來。U 字對世界大學運動會有著象徵性的意涵，它富含了大學 (University) 這一種活力四射、多彩繽紛、又充滿無限可能的青春氣息；它是 Union，透過運動將 年輕的(Youth)、每一個你 (You)，甚至整個宇宙 (Universe) 聯合在一起。
The term “Universiade” combines “university” and “Olympiad”, which was used as a chronological record of events in the ancient Olympics. The letter “U” has a symbolic meaning for Universiade. On the one hand, it stands for the youthful passion, colorful life and infinite possibilities of university; on the other, it represents the word
“union”, linking youth, you and even the entire universe through sports.
In ancient Greece, the battles among the states were suspended for the sports meeting; in the modern times, symbolic union was once seen between the German Democratic Republic and the Federal Republic of Germany and between North Korea and South Korean in Olympics. As a medium, sport is committed to eliminate the confrontations and disputes among people, and it has been embedded in the spirit of peace, friendship and teamwork.
With the concept as the starting point, this paper explored all aspects of the grand sports meeting for college students. Aside from recalling the “events of university” from a historical perspective, it aimed to get a thorough understanding of Taiwan's preparation for Universiade.
世界大學運動會是什麼樣的活動？主要由誰主辦？為什麼舉辦這場活動？主要的特色為何？ 它的主要內容為何？世大運與奧林匹克運動會有何差別？本章節讓你對世界大學運動會有更多的認 識。
• 什麼是世界大學運動會(The Universiades) ？
世 界 大 學 運 動 會（Universiade） 為 國 際 大 學 運 動 總 會（International University Sports Federation，FISU）所主辦，每兩年舉行一次，主要是為全世界大學生運動員 ( 年齡介於 17 歲 至28 歲之間 )，而舉辦的一場綜合了運動的、文化的國際綜合性運動賽會。第 1 屆夏季世大運於 1959 年舉行、冬季世大運於 1960 年首次舉辦，截至今年 (2017) 已經舉辦過 29 屆，歷經 59 年的 歷史。2003 年韓國大邱世大運，一共有來自全世界 174 個國家共襄盛舉，2013 年俄羅斯喀山世大 運，與會人數更達致1 萬 1785 人。
• 什麼是國際大學運動總會(International University Sports Federation，簡稱 FISU) ？
國際大學運動總會，是由來自世界各國的大學運動組織機構所組成的國際運動組織，自1949 年成立，目前成員有170 個會員國。此組織為夏季世大運、冬季世大運，以及各單項運動世界大學 運動錦標賽的最高權力機構，除了辦理綜合型運動賽會，也舉辦學術論壇、研討會，及結合運動所 辦的文化活動。
What does Universiade look like? Who is the host? Why is it held? What are its features? What are its main contents? What are the differences between Universiade and the Olympic Games? In this part, you will have a deeper understanding of Universiade.
•What is the Universiades?
Held by the International University Sports Federation (FISU) every two years, Universiade is an international sports meeting which combines sports and cultures for college student athletes (aged from 17 to 28) across the world. The first summer Universiade was held in 1959, and the first winter Universiade took place in 1960. By 2017, it has been held for 29 times over 59 years. In the Daegu Universiade in 2003, the athletes from 174 countries participated in the grand sports meeting, and the Kazan Universiade in 2013 attracted 11,785 participants.
•What is the FISU?
FISU is an international sports organization consisting of college sports agencies
across the world. Established in 1949, it now has 170 member states. As the most authoritative institution of the summer Universiade, the winter Universiade and various individual tournaments for colleges around the world, it hosts comprehensive sports meetings, academic forums, seminars, as well as the cultural activities involving sports.
•The FISU Philosophy
The philosophy of the FISU is to advocate the value of sports and encourage practice and sports which combine the value of sports and the spirit of universities. The FISU publicizes such sport values as friendship, mutual concern, fair competition, persistence, honesty, cooperation and diligence among college students, a social group which will shoulder responsibilities in the future and even play a significant political, economic and cultural role in society. In face of partners, competitors and even rivals, each student must maintain the spirits and learn to cooperate with others and face all possibilities.
• 世界大學運動會與奧林匹克運動會的差異？ 世界大學運動會與奧林匹克運動會同樣都是一場包含多種競賽項目，分有夏季、冬季的大型國 際運動賽會。儘管如此，兩者的差別在舉辦週期、精神理念、參賽對象，以及人數規模都有所不同。 不同於奧運4 年為一個週期，世大運是 2 年舉辦一次；精神理念上，奧運強調以運動促進人類的和 諧發展，世大運則凸顯運動與大學獨立自主的精神結合，鼓勵友誼、誠實、合作以及勤奮等精神； 奧運會中不同運動項目有不同的年齡資格限制，世大運則是以年齡介於17 至 28 歲的大學生為主； 人數規模上，以2016 里約奧運及 2017 臺北世大運為例，參賽國數分別為 206 國，以及 131 國。
• 什麼是世界大學錦標賽(The World University Championships，簡稱 WUC) ？
世界大學錦標賽(The World University Championships)是 FISU 的另一個重要運動競技盛會， 自1962 年起，每逢西元雙數年皆有各種單項錦標賽舉辦，歷年來世大錦標賽的競賽項目也不斷增 加以符合時代潮流，2014 年 FISU 共舉辦了 28 場不同單向世界大學錦標賽，吸引了 6 萬 6448 人 參加，到了2016 年 WUC 的整個計畫，涵蓋的運動多達 33 種。

•What are the differences between Universiade and the Olympic Games?
Like the Olympic Games, Universiade is a large international sports meeting (summer and winter) which includes various sport events. However, the difference between the two lies in the cycle, spirit and philosophy, and participant. Unlike the Olympic Games which is held every four years, Universiade is held every two years; the Olympic Games emphasizes promoting the harmonious development of humans through sports, while Universiade underlines the combination of sports and the spirit of independence of university and encourages friendship, honesty, cooperation and diligence; participants of all ages can take part in the Olympic Games, whereas Universiade is open to the college students aged from 17 to 28.

「世界大學運動研討會」與夏季世大運同時舉行，研討會主題多半以「大學運動」的研究為核 心。FISU 藉由研討會的舉辦，將高等教育中的科學研究成果應用於運動上。
•What is the FISU Conference?
The FISU Conference is held with Universiade at the same time, with focus on the study on “university sports”. The view on all aspects of sports is that social science is complementary to scientific research, which indicates that it is necessary to combine sports with the spirit of university.

• 中華民國大專院校體育總會Chinese Taipei University Sports Federation (CTUSF)
1957 年成立，當時名為「臺灣省專科以上學校聯合會」，1967 年更名為「中華民國大專院校 體育總會」，此組織為領導與辦理大專學生體育活動之全國性體育團體，是臺灣在FISU 註冊的正 式會員。主要宗旨為：推展大專院校體育學術研究，提高運動技術水準，加強體育教學，促進國際 體育交流等活動。負責辦理國、內外大專競技比賽，國內：UBA 大專籃球聯賽、UVL 大專排球聯賽、 UBL 大專棒球聯賽、UFA 大專足球聯賽，以及三十多種大專單向錦標賽；國際部分，與 FISU 合作 過去已承辦過多項不同種之世界大學運動錦標賽，及第11 屆 FISU 論壇。
Like the Olympic Games which attracts the participant teams of different countries, Universiade is also an essential sport occasion where Taiwan communicates with the international community. So, when did Taiwan begin to take part in the sports meeting? Why did it participate in the sports meeting at that time? Which shining star represented Taiwan in the activity? Who promoted the activity behind the scene? What were the moving sport stories? In this part, we will explore the history of Taiwan's participation in Universiade.
•Chinese Taipei University Sports Federation (CTUSF)
Founded in 1957, it was called Taiwan Federation of Junior Colleges and Above; in 1967, it was renamed as Chinese Taipei University Sports Federation. As an official registered member of the FISU, it is a national sport group which governs and organizes the sports for college students. Its purpose is to undertake the academic research on the physical education of universities, improve sportsmanship and physical education, and promote international exchanges on physical education. Besides, it takes charge of the domestic and international competitive matches for universities. The domestic ones include the University Basketball Association (UBA), the University Volleyball League (UVL), the University Baseball League (UBL), the University Football Association (UFA), and 30 individual university championships; as for the international ones, it has cooperated with the FISU to hold the WUC for many times as well as the 11th FISU Forum.
•Taiwan joined the International University Sports Federation (FISU)
Only the FISU members can compete in Universiade. To participate in this grand sports meeting, Taiwan made tremendous efforts to become an FISU member. In 1969 and 1983, the Chinese Taipei University Sports Federation applied for the membership of the FISU but failed because of its international membership. On July 6, 1987, the membership of Taiwan, Argentina, Bolivia, Cyprus, Ireland, Nicaragua, Peru, and San Marino was discussed in the Application of New Members at the FISU Members Conference. Although the Mainland China delegation was opposed to Taiwan's application, Taiwan was finally accepted as an FISU member with the applause of all the members.

28th Summer Universiade Gwangju (KOR), 2015
In 2015, Universiade was held in South Korea for the second time. The sports meeting coincided with the epidemic of MERS, which posed a great challenge on the host country as well as the delegations. Despite the problem, 7,374 athletes from 143 countries took part in the Universiade.
The Taiwanese delegation won 6 gold medals, 12 silver ones and 18 bronze ones this time thanks to the joint endeavor of the athletes who competed in 16 sport events, such as track and field, swimming, gymnastics, basketball, volleyball, football, snooker, tennis, fencing, judo, taekwondo, archery, badminton, baseball, golf and shooting.

The Women's Basketball Team in 2011, the Men's Volleyball Team in 2015, and other athletes have left a deep impression on me with their concentrated efforts, their courage in face of challenges, as well as their positive interaction with the coaches. All these are priceless. Apart from sending athletes for the sports meeting every two years, Taiwan has tried hard to win the right to host Universiade for four times. Finally, its efforts paid off, and it won the bidding in November 2011: the 2017 Universiade will be held in Taipei City.
In Taipei City, Universiade is being publicized almost everywhere, and the information about the sports meeting is also being broadcast on TV and media. When did Taiwan win the right to host the high-level competition? What are its philosophy and features? What problems did it face in the preparation? What social issues should we pay attention to in the process of solving these problems?
•Taiwan strived for the right to host the 2017 Summer Universiade
On September 30, 2011, the Taipei City Government submitted the application letter of Summer Universiade 2017 and competed with Brasilia for the chance. For Taipei City, Brasilia was a strong rival because Brazil is the seventh biggest economy in the world and has the experience in hosting the Olympic Games and the World Cup. However, Taipei City has its own advantages: it has rich experience in hosting the World Flower Expo and Deaflympics; it proposed the plan of making full use of and recycling existing venues; In comparison with Brazil's World Cup 2004 and the Olympic Games 2016, it has a more fiscal source. With all these exceptional advantages, Taipei City ultimately won the right to host the sports meeting in 2017 in its fifth attempts.
•Purpose and vision of 2017 Taipei Summer Universiade
A mega-event requires a large amount of funds from the central government, so people begin to be curious about the benefits of such a great investment. According to the official data, Taipei City hosts the activity to ignite citizens' passion for sports, establish relevant facilities which meet the international standards, win the approval and trust from the people and give them a sense of honor. From the international perspective, it aims to develop into an international city and broaden the channel of communication between Taiwan and the international community. Aside from regarding Universiade as a sports competition, Taipei City focus on the missions related to it, such as the urban reconstruction, civic participation and cultural enhancement.

•Controversial 2017 Taipei Summer Universiade
In 2014, the elections of heads of counties and cities were held across Taiwan. The task to host the 2017 Taipei Summer Universiade was transferred from the former mayor Hau Lung-pin to the newly-elected mayor Ko Wen-je. The transition from the old government to the new indicated the reconstruction of the Universiade Preparation Committee, the reflection of the Universiade executive officer, and the redesign of the symbol and mascot.

In 1959, the first Universiade was held in Italy; in 1987, Taiwan became a member of the FISU and took part in the 14 th Universiade held in Yugoslavia. Since then, Taiwan has
participated in the sports meeting for 15 times, winning 265 medals (72 gold medals, 85 silver ones and 108 bronze ones).
In 2011, in its fifth attempt to win the right to host Universiade, Taipei City finally got the chance. From the Taipei Deaflympics 2009 to the World Games 2009 Kaohsiung to the 2017 Taipei Summer Universiade, Taipei has been showing the world its ability to hold international competitions. Nevertheless, we should not forget the visible and invisible costs for a mega-event while exhibiting our strength.
Some say that sport is an effective tool of communication which can promote the solidarity among humans and solve disputes. The great breakthroughs and the strong willpower in the sports bring us hope. What are the benefits of the sports meeting for the youth which is felt everywhere? Undoubtedly, you need to find out the answer to this question all by yourself.
