Just how far back in history organized contests were held remains a matter of debate, but it is reasonably certain that they occurred in Greece almost 3,000 years ago. However ancient in origin, by the end of the 6th century BC at least four Greek sporting festivals, sometimes called "classical games," had achieved major importance: the Olympic Games, held at Olympia; the Pythian Games at Delphi; the Nemean Games at Nemea; and the Isthmian Games, held near Corinth. The Olympic Games were perhaps the greatest of these sporting events, and all Olympian victors were highly appreciated among the Greeks.

  • Το πότε διεξήχθηκε η πρώτη διοργάνωση αθλητικών αγώνων εξακολουθεί να αποτελεί ένα μεγάλο θέμα συζήτησης, αλλά είναι προφανώς σίγουρο ότι συνέβη στην Ελλάδα σχεδόν 3.000 χρόνια πριν. Από το τέλος του 6ου αιώνα π.Χ. είναι γνωστές τουλάχιστον τέσσερις Ελληνικές αθλητικές διοργανώσεις, αρχαιότερες στην καταγωγή, που ήταν μεγάλης σημασίας γεγονότα και συνήθως ονομάζονται «κλασικοί αγώνες»: οι Ολυμπιακοί Αγώνες, που πραγματοποιούνταν στην Ολυμπία, τα Πύθια στους Δελφούς, τα Νέμεα στη Νεμέα, και τα Ίσθμια, που πραγματοποιούνταν κοντά στην Κόρινθο. Οι Ολυμπιακοί Αγώνες ήταν ίσως το σπουδαιότερο όλων αθλητικό γεγονός που διοργανωνόταν κάθε τέσσερα χρόνια και οι νικητές του, οι ολυμπιονίκες, έχαιραν μεγάλης εκτίμησης μεταξύ των Ελλήνων. (el)
