The Venue |
Santa Caterina di Valfurva, Italy This special series was staged at two locations. The four heats were held on
the ski slopes of Italian resort Santa Caterina di Valfurva and the games played
were based mainly on sports like skiing and snowboarding. For the Semi-Final
and Final, the games moved to the Zimni Stadium, an indoor ice arena in
Czechoslovakia, and the games were based on skating and other ice sports. |
The Games
in Detail |
Game 10 - The Weightlifting Yeti
Game 10 - 'The Weightlifting Yeti' - was a standard game used
throughout the 1992 Jeux Sans Frontières. The players got three tries
to put 100 kgs of weights onto a scale. The first five weights were placed in
two baskets which were balanced on a stick. A player dressed as a yeti then
carried it on his shoulders to the scale at the other side of the runway. A
maximum of three tries was permitted to get the weight up to 100 kgs. |
Additional Information |
The series was billed simply as
Jeux Sans Frontières and is
referred to here as the Winter Series simply to distinguish it from the summer
series. |

Additional Information |
Qualifying for the Winter International Final involved the most complicated
scoring system in the history of Jeux Sans Frontières. Each country had
two teams that participated in every game (eight games of two heats and one
head-to-head national battle). However, the combined totals (score and time)
determined which country would be awarded the points (4pts, 3pts, 2pts, 1pt)
on each game.
For example:
-
Town
1 scored 7 objects in 1'35
-
Town
2 scored 8 objects in 1'58
-
Total for Country = 15 objects in 3'33
This
total was then compared with the totals for other countries and the points
awarded accordingly. This ultimately decided the overall winning country of
the Semi-Final. With Czechoslovakia declared the winning country of the
Semi-Final, the team of Nové Město na Moravě were awarded the trophy.
In addition to this, the highest scoring of the two national teams was awarded
1 placings point and at the end of the competition the one with the highest
number would qualify for the Winter Final. Only one team from each country
qualified for the final.
This Semi-Final was the only event of the 1992 Winter Series in
which double points were not awarded for placings in the final game.
Interestingly, had the double points rule applied then national scoring would
have ended up as follows and there would not have been a clear national
winner:
1st - CS - Czechoslovakia - 26
1st - F - France - 26
1st - I - Italy - 26
4th - CH - Switzerland - 25
