PIERRE DE COUBERTIN

President of the International Olympic Committee
The 1906 Summer Olympics revived the momentum, and the Olympic Games have come to be regarded as the world's foremost sports competition.[39] Coubertin created the modern pentathlon for the 1912 Olympics, and subsequently stepped down from his IOC presidency after the 1924 Olympics in Paris, which proved much more successful than the first attempt in that city in 1900. He was succeeded as president, in 1925, by Belgian Henri de Baillet-Latour.
Years later Coubertin came out of retirement to lend his prestige to assisting Berlin to land the 1936 games. In exchange, Germany nominated him for the Nobel Peace Prize. The 1935 winner, however, was the anti-Nazi Carl von Ossietzky.
Personal Olympic success
Coubertin won the gold medal for literature at the 1912 Summer Olympics for his poem Ode to Sport.[41] Coubertin entered his poem 'Ode to Sport' under the pseudonym of Georges Hohrod and M. Eschbach which were the names of villages close to his wife's place of birth.[42]
Les Débrouillards
Following Francisco Amoros' ideas, De Coubertin developed a new type of utilitarian sport: "les débrouillards". (the "resourceful men") from 1900.
The first débrouillards season was organized in 1905/1906, and the program was wide: running, jumping, throwing, climbing, swimming, sword fight, boxing, shooting, walking, horse riding, rowing, cycling. (source: FFEPGV archives)
Scouting
In 1911, Pierre de Coubertin founded the inter-religious Scouting organization aka Éclaireurs Français (EF) in France, which later merged to form the Éclaireuses et Éclaireurs de France.[43]
Personal life
In 1895, Pierre de Coubertin had married Marie Rothan, the daughter of family friends. Their son Jacques (1896–1952) became ill after being in the sun too long when he was a little child. Their daughter Renée (1902–1968) suffered emotional disturbances and never married. Marie and Pierre tried to console themselves with two nephews, but they were killed at the front in World War I. Coubertin died of a heart attack in Geneva, Switzerland, on 2 September 1937 and was buried in Bois-de-Vaux Cemetery in Lausanne. Marie died in 1963.[44][45][46]
At the 139th IOC session, French IOC member and Olympic gold medalist Guy Drut, informed the IOC of his proposal to have de Coubertin's remain reinterred at the Panthéon in time for the 2024 Summer Olympics. Drut stated that he had support from de Coubertin's family as well as Académie Française member Érik Orsenna and had written to French President Emmanuel Macron. In response, IOC President, Thomas Bach, commented that he though it was " "wonderful proposal" and "deserves to be successful," however he doubted "the IOC could make any steps on this initiative which we appreciate considerably," yet wished him on behalf of the IOC "the best of success in getting this initiative to fruition."[47] Drut announced that he had written to Macron "to propose the creation of a study commission for this project."[48]
