history

1At the end of the 9th century and the beginning of the 20th century, some ice and snow sports such as skiing, sledding, skating and ice hockey gradually became popular and developed in Europe and America. 1887 Norway established the world's first ski club. 1890, Canada established the world's first ice hockey association. 1892 the international skating Federation was established in the Netherlands. 1893, the first men's speed skating championship was held in Amsterdam. From 65438 to 0908, France established the International Ice Hockey Federation all over the world.

With the increasing popularity of ice and snow sports, Coubertin, the founder of the modern Olympic Games, suggested holding the Winter Olympic Games alone.

However, it was delayed due to the successful holding of 190 1 Europe Scandinavia Nordic Joint Movement. 1908 figure skating was added to the 4th Summer Olympic Games. 1920 In the 7th Summer Olympic Games, the International Olympic Committee refused to accept nordic combined and added ice hockey. After joining the Olympic Games, figure skating and ice hockey attracted great interest from the audience. However, due to the weather conditions, the organizers feel inconvenient. Although both events were held in April in advance, most competitions and the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games were held in mid-August. This makes an Olympic Games as long as five months, and the cost of manpower and material resources is too high. In view of this, people tend to separate the ice and snow events from the Olympic Games and hold them separately.

The Winter Olympics officially started on 1924. At that time, Chamonix, France hosted what was then called "Winter Sports Week". Two years later, the IOC officially renamed it 1 Winter Olympics.

Originally, the Winter Olympic Games was held every four years, and it was held in the same country as the Summer Olympic Games. Since the second Winter Olympics in 1928, the venues of the Winter Olympics and the Summer Olympics have been changed to different countries. Starting from 1994, the Winter Olympics and the Summer Olympics will be held every two years. In order to stagger the time of the Winter Olympics and the Summer Olympics, only 1992 Winter Olympics and 1994 Winter Olympics are separated by two years.
