On 23 June, birthday celebrations will be held around the world. Why?

It’s International Olympic Day, the birthday of the modern Olympic Games. Let’s celebrate!

Frenchman, Pierre de Coubertin, set up the International Olympic Committee on 23 June 1894. He was an enthusiastic sportsman who enjoyed boxing, fencing, horse-riding and rowing.

He wanted to bring people from around the world together to take part in friendly athletic competition, to build a better world through sport.

He believed that taking part and doing your very best is more important than winning.

Organised by the International Olympic Committee, the first modern Olympic Games took place in Athens, Greece in 1896

245 athletes from 14 countries competed in the Games and Great Britain was one of them!

More than 10,000 athletes from 204 nations participated in the London 2012 Games

There’s lots to celebrate
