Best Answer

The current version of the Olympic Oath, first introduced in 1999 is: "In the name of all competitors I promise that we shall take part in these Olympic Games, respecting and abiding by the rules which govern them, committing ourselves to a sport without doping and without drugs, in the true spirit of sportsmanship, for the glory of sport and the honour of our teams." The original version, first sworn by Belgian athlete Victor Boin at the 1920 Belgium Games, stated:

"We swear that we will take part in these Olympic Games in the true spirit of sportsmanship, and that we will respect and abide by the rules that govern them, for the glory of sport and the honour of our country."
