HELLO, from 2024. How’s the future Totallympics? I still have a few more minutes in 2024, so I’ll post my annual “final post of the year.” It won’t be too long this year, but I couldn’t let the tradition die For me, this year is best described as a “roller coaster.” I entered the year injured, unemployed and anxious, but left healthy (at least relatively), employed and partying with family and friends. I’m thankful for how it went because I know there are those much less fortunate than me. There are too many highlights, with too little time, for me to cover my favorite moments from the year, but amongst the coolest things in life was working alongside a few other Totallympics members for the second time in my life. It was an extraordinary summer full of sports, emotional highs and fraternity. You guys have always made me fell welcomed, even at my most annoying points in life, and I remain thankful to have found this community. I wish everyone good health, stability and positive professional developments in 2025. Here’s to another year!!! -

Club season volleyball, NFL, NHL, NBA, some tennis, Men’s World Junior Hockey Champs, Canadian Curling Mixed Doubles Olympic Trials, and Bobsleigh/Luge/Skeleton/Alpine Skiing WC’s -
As long as it’s not multiple countries worldwide (unless it’s countries bordering each other…), anywhere in India, Saudi Arabia, and probably even Doha I’m fine with pretty much anywhere.

If Coe wins they will definitively try to host the games in Saudi Arabia at some point, but 2036 seems too early (esp with SA also having the World Cup in 2034). -

Additional Sports at Brisbane 2032 The final sports program for Brisbane 2032 can be reasonably expected in the first half of 2028, as occurred in 2024 when confirmation of the Los Angeles Olympics final sports program was announced. Boxing While Boxing was “scheduled” from the next two summer Olympics, this sport is currently suspended from both LA2028 and Brisbane 2032 until a new governing body (World Boxing) can formally take over the management of the sport and run the competitions at the Games. At Paris 2024, the IOC itself ran the boxing competition as a one-off only. the previous boxing governing body (IBA) has been kicked out of the IOC family after an extended period of governance breaches. for LA2028, boxing may yet be added as a late includion. for Brisbane, I’m confident with the expected full approval by the IOC of World Boxing to govern the sport, Boxing will be re-instated at the Olympics and in 2032 is planned to take place at Moreton Bay Indoor Sports Centre. T20 Cricket Cricket is a hot favourite to continue at Brisbane 2032 following it’s debut at LA2028. 77 countries play T20 Cricket world wide according to the latest ICC World Rankings. Flag Football This sport is actually becoming very popular in Australia and also world wide. There are 20 million players around the globe currently playing Flag Football. So, I think it has a better than even chance of being continued at Brisbane 2032. Flag Football played in 100 countries, 20 million players world wide Australia embracing the rise of Flag Football Lacrosse This is another booming sport internationally. Australia is ranked 4th in the world in both women’s and men’s Lacrosse. It’s another sport which has a good chance to continue at Brisbane 2032. Lacrosse was played in the Olympics in 1904 and 1908. It was a also a demonstration sport in 1928, 1932 and 1948. AFL Nines / Rugby League Nines Both AFL and Rugby League I believe will really struggle to win a spot at Brisbane 2032. The days of “demonstration sports” is long gone from the Olympics and I can’t honestly see either making it on to the final Brisbane 2032 program. Netball Fast5 With both women’s and men’s teams, I think that Netball Fast5 (women’s and men’s) has got a fair chance for inclusion in 2032. Fast5 women’s world series competitions have been played since 2009 with men’s teams included since 2022. Australian Men’s Team wins Netball Fast5 World Series and does viral dance Incidentally, 50 countries currently play the regular Netball format with Australia ranked No. 1 in the world. Baseball / Softball Both have been in and out of the Olympics over the years so much its hard to keep up. They were recently dropped for Paris 2024 but included at LA2028. It’s 50/50 if they will continue to Brisbane 2032. Surfing and Sport Climbing Surfing and Sport Climbing will soon be formally added to Brisbane 2032 sports program with both having earned permanent sport status from LA2028 onwards. 3x3 Basketball 3x3 Basketball is already part of Brisbane’s sports program in 2032 and will be played at the Southbank Piazza. Karate Following it’s debut at Tokyo 2020, Karate was dropped for the Paris 2024 and LA2028 and not looking good for Brisbane. Breaking As we know, Breaking was dropped for LA2028 and I can’t see it being included at Brisbane 2032. Permanent Status at Olympics Once a sport is played at three consecutive Olympic Games, it becomes a permanent sport at the Olympic Games. So from LA2028 onwards, the following sports will officially be permanent in the Olympic Games: 3x3 Basketball BMX Freestyle Skateboarding Sport Climbing Surfing -

For that to happen, the IOC would first have to get agreement from international sporting federations, national olympic committtees and IOC members themselves to relax the current July/August Olympics hosting dates requirement and allow the Games to be held in the cooler months. Many can be expected to oppose such a dates change as it be very disruptive to existing competitions. When and if that such an IOC hosting rule change happens, it would certainly open the door from hot cpuntries like middle east nations such as Saudi Arabia, Qatar or United Arab Emirates (Dubai) to host the Games say in cooler November-December. We know that a Games in the oppressve July/August heat in the middle east would be impossible and deadly for athletes, officials and spectators. So there’s a lot of hoops to jump through first before such a dates change can occur. With Games in these New Norm days being awarded around 10 years or so ahead of the Games, that means there’s actually not a lot of time to get this through before 2026 comes around, which is the 10 year mark before a 2036 Summer Olympics. -
