About Débrouillard

Débrouillard is named after the French word for resourcefulness—a quality deeply woven into Modern Pentathlon's origins. Pierre de Coubertin, founder of the modern Olympic Games, formally championed this ideal through the development of his Diplôme des Débrouillards program, celebrating youth who excelled across multiple athletic disciplines. This vision led Coubertin to invent Modern Pentathlon as the only sport specifically created for the Olympic Games, designed to test adaptability, versatility, and resilience. In doing so, he cemented débrouillard as a defining trait of the complete athlete, a legacy that continues to shape the sport today.
