The Olympic Games began in 776 B.C when Olympia's king appealed to the Oracle to guide him on how to rid his city from wars. His answer was: "Wage sporting events instead!". Discus throwing used to be one of the 5 branches of the ancient Olympics. Therefore, in 2004, we ask you to throw a discus in order to show your support for peace!

320,944 people around the globe have thrown one. Throw your own & meet them here.
