Jeu de paume at the 1908 Summer Olympics

From Free net encyclopedia

At the 1908 Summer Olympics, one jeu de paume event was contested. This was the only Olympic Games to contain this sport as a medal event. (The same sport under the English name, real tennis, was an exhibition event at the 1924 Summer Olympics. An outdoor version called longue paume was part of the 1900 Summer Olympics, but its medal status is disputed.)

The competition venue was the Queen's Club in West Kensington, London.
