Easy, Futnet (Football Tennis) & Hokejbal (Ball Hockey) and we return C2 in Canoe Slalom add gazillion of quotas there to have also Team events, add K4-1000m in Canoe Sprint and Foot-Golf while we are at it. Point.

 

But, yeah, even if nothing is certain in this world, Slovakia not hosting the Olympics, Summer, is definitely one thing which absolutely is

Sadly my country won't host the Olympics ... but I'd say breaking () 

[Josh 11,526]

Water skiing, lacrosse, breaking and baseball/softball. 

[Giovanni Gianni Cattaneo 142]

I think olympic program is now too big, so in my opinion is no good to add new sports. Instead, i like to remove someone: skating, artistic swimming, trampoline, breaking are better out of the games.

If i need to choose someting, i think its' better to improve rugby, from 7 to 15. Then, baseball/softball and karate would have to right to compete. No other, please no other
