 is closer than ever to be the host, by the way ..which City would be proposed in your opinion?

Ahmedabad in the state of Gujarat will be the proposed host city. They are building a lot of sporting infrastructure in the city with the aim to host major sporting events.

I guess it'd be Sports that Egypt can perform well  

 

• Squash
• Karate
• MP if it will be removed 
• Weightlifting if it will be removed
• Speedball we are always world champions in this sport 

If MP and Weightlifting are still alive then I will recommend Beach Soccer and Sepak Takraw as personally I want to see it olympic some day  Dodgeball looks fine for me as well

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

As we see with the Rugby World Cup it’s impossible to have 15-man Rugby because players are limited to one match per week. Even with a full round on Day -2 you couldn’t finish.

I personally more in favour of Delhi instead of Ahmedabad due to following reasons
1. Delhi already has sporting infrastructure. Track cycling events in 2022 National Games in Gujarat were held in Delhi
2. Largest airport in India

3. Delhi has a happening nightlife and many leisure activities to do while Gujarat is a dry state

4. Delhi itself has many historical monuments and has easy access to North India for any tourists wishing to experience beyond the Games

5. Delhi Metro is a spiderweb across Delhi with 10 lines while Ahmedabad Metro has just 2

6. Gujarat is a border state

You would have thought that Delhi rather New Delhi would have been the obvious  choice having already hosted commonwealth games but it is clear that the Central Govt & sports ministry want the games to take place in Ahmedabad, Gujarat. Easy to guess why, with general elections coming next year & if there is a change, will be interesting to see if the new government will still propose Ahmedabad or somewhere else.

[ManuCHIL 155]

I think would be really interesting (although I know artists will find it outrageous xD)

Nothing, really

 

We don't have any sports that are children's versions of real sports (flag football) or that are real sports but immensely popular in a very specific area yet entirely unknown outside of it (cricket), so....yeah. I wonder how @Dennis, @Jinzha or @Noorderling29 would see this, but I very much doubt we'd add something 'Dutch' like kaatsen or fierljeppen which are Frisian things specifically and basically entirely unknown outside of it  (personally I only know of their existence and that's it)

Baseball/Softball (including women's baseball and men's softball).

 

I'd like to see lacrosse, but as mentioned before it is definitely not Olympic ready.

 

Maybe ice hockey so we can guarantee NHL players
