In December 1911, due to the upcoming year of 1912, Arthur once again visited the National Stadium to inspect the construction of the stadium.
After two years of construction, the National Stadium had been built more than halfway, and now only some finishing touches remained.
During this time, the Australasian Olympic Preparatory Organization received applications from as many as 20 countries around the world to participate in the Olympic Games.
Compared to the previous London Olympics, the rules for this Olympic Games were slightly modified, with each country allowed to participate in up to seven people per event, and it was recommended to participate in three people.
At the same time, some more innovative technologies, such as electronic timing and finish line camera equipment, would also be added to this Olympic Games to make the timing of the Olympic Games more accurate and to better resolve some ranking disputes.
