1 The Dominican Republic and Olympism An extensive knowledge of Olympism is the most important factor for the progress of national sport. Juan Ulises García Saleta, 1976 Dominican sport is progressing thanks to sacrifices and in spite of the many interminable and inconceivable problems. It is progressing thanks to the increasing participation of our country s youth in the Olympic movement both as leaders and as athletes.

2 THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC AND THE OLYMPIC GAMES Ing. Roque Napoleón Muñoz Rafael Duquela Morales Date of first participation: Under the direction of the new President, Juan Ulises García Saleta*, assisted, advised and guided by the late General José de J. Clark, IOC member in Mexico, an effective sports organisation was set up with the following basis: creation of a sports administration aimed at promoting sports education chiefly in urban districts; guaranteeing the independence of the Dominican Olympic Committee; organising the various national sports federations. This policy enabled Dominican sport to develop to such an extent that the city of Santo Domingo was awarded the organisation of the Xllth Central American and Caribbean Games in Mr. Bienvenido A. Martínez Brea was President of the Organising Committee, under the responsibility of the Dominican Olympic Committee. Successive Presidents of the COD¹ 1946: Ing.

Financing of the COD THE COD AND OLYMPISM The Dominican Olympic Committee receives approximately 2,000 pesos (4,400 Swiss francs) per month from the Secretariat of State for Sport, Physical Education and Leisure, a government sports body, covering part of the costs incurred by the exercise of its functions. In addition it sometimes receives assistance from private companies which, through an auxiliary body called the Financial Advisory Group (GAF) created at the end of 1974, give an important contribution to amateur sport. It also receives the collaboration of the municipality of the city of Santo Domingo. However the COD still cannot fulfil the social role it should because of its limited budget.! International Olympic Academy The Dominican Olympic Committee has so far never sent delegates to the Sessions of the International Olympic Academy.!
