HUMBER ATHLETES TO REPRESENT TEAM CANADA

Humber Golfers Lee French, Mike Zizek, Shauna Wilde and Coach Ray Chateau have been selected to participate in the 2007 F.I.S.U. Games in Bangkok, Thailand on August 8 - 18, 2007.

The International University Sports (Universiade) is considered as a significant sports ceremony among university students, being equivalent to the Olympic Games. The International University Sports has also been held continuously for a long time.

FISU stands for Federation Internationale du Sport Universitaire (International University Sports Federation) and was founded in 1949. FISU's main responsability is the supervision of both Summer and Winter Universiades as well as the World University Championships.

FISU is composed of a General Assembly which represents the members (141 National University Sports Federations). It is FISU's main governing body. It elects the Executive Committee for a period of four years, which takes all the necessary decisions for the smooth running of FISU. Ten permanent commissions advise the Executive Committee in their specialised areas and so to simplify its duties. FISU is funded through subscription, organising and entry fees, television incomes, and marketing activities.
