Shame football tennis not selected, with 3x gold almost assured would be our best multi sport games ever

Oh god ??‍♂️
so this games are basically becoming world game’s european version 

Which is pretty cool. European Games with only Olympic sports don't really add anything, I mean, they've all already got European championships, so....why yet another 'big' event? It's a lot more fun with all kinds of sports one sees way less often  

 

As for teqball, I know it because of Eurosport's top-X videos all the time (although not as often anymore nowadays) during commercial timeouts, they had one of teqball as well  

 

I see kickboxing is added as well. Some amateur version I guess, instead of the top-of-the-line athletes

Looks like athletics officialy joined to the list of sports at these European Games (in format of European Team Championships, like 1 athlete from country per event).
