What Sports You will Add if Your Country Hosts Olympic Games

[rafalgorka 1,808]

But i wouldn’t add summer ski jumping myself because it just doesn’t make sense for me

I believe we have a thread for that as well, but I'm too lazy to find it right now

in France: Basque pelota, squash and boules would have chances.

Cricket and Squash will be on permanent program I believe. Skateboarding and Artistic Swimming out along with many other events.

 

So added events 

1. Billiards

2.Rollball

3. Mallkhamb

4. Yogasana

5. Lagori

 

If allowed team events in shooting and compound archery must even at the expense of some of the above sports

You understood well, it's just that the title is ambiguous: it says "you will add if your country hosts" (which could be interpreted as if you were personally in charge of the decision) when I think the intention was to say "what sports do you think your country would add if they were to host".

I’d be down for the inclusion of compound archery 

 

But don’t see the IOC removing skateboarding/artistic swimming from the Olympic programme. If artistic swimming does get axed though

Going by the assumption that Squash has a decent chance of part of the core programme once it gets in, here are my top 3 for :

1. Darts (not on the list)

2. Billiards (there would be some sort of deal to let top snooker and potentially pool players play) 

3. Netball

 

If we were to host again, I think the main focus would be to integrate "pub sports". Darts, similar to squash, has a large international appeal and would be one of the top revenue earners at the games. There is a slight lack of depth in the women's game for a 64 player field as well as a trans issue, but when the time comes for us to host again this should hopefully not be too much of a problem. The main problem though is the relationship between the amateur and the professional game, which is at an all time low. But if there's a strong urge for darts to be included, I'm sure the PDC would be able to enter a loose partnership with the WDF.
