This sport should be an olympic one. No doubt in my mind. There is strength, endurance and working as a team. Its all about perserverance and inner strength. I was the oldest at 33 on the team and we finished 5th out of 17 countries. I left the team and they went on to other world championships in South Africa and were 3rd. The Team was Blue-Water Tug of War in Dashwood, Ontario.

I know a couple people in Minnesota that have a very good tug of war team that have been to the world games many times. I would be amazing Mr. Johnson to see tug of war on TV, I think you would also get even more visitors coming to London because it is such an interesting sport. In conclusion I believe it would benefit the Olympic Games and bring many more viewers to London.

I`m hopefully going to start again this year being nearly fourty. Great team sport plus when your all on the rope and every one has to read it as it moves and to have all 8 people to respond at the same time it`s a fine art. If we bring back TUG OF WAR into the 2012 Olympic it would help bring back to life this great game that people like to watch at fates, live league matches. It`s one of the old team sports.

I believe tug-of war has a strong case to be introduced back onto the olympic stage .
It has a past history history in the games and having been in a world class team in my youth I know it takes alot of dedication,strength,skill and very hard work to get to such a position.

The boxer Henry Cooper had a practice pull with us and compared it as being as strenuous as his boxing training.

Tug-of-war is also a completely amateur sport in keeping with the spirit of the games.

There is no other sport represented in the games that utilises these qualities in the same way and therfore athletes with these attributes are unrepresented. I would like to request that this sport is represented in the games. Many thanks
