The OCA officially asked the organizers to add Padel and Teqball to the 2026 Asian Games

so sports can just born and get into the Asian Games right away ?  

it seems Teqball is going to be the next Jujitsu, apparently paying some money to OCA officials to include them in all OCA multi-sport events from now on  

apparently the Japanese organizers rejected OCA's nice request 

 

now OCA is ordering them to do so in a not-so-nice language

the last line is very interesting

since Ifs of these two sports are covering the entire cost of its inclusion in the sports program.

I knew this for a while, for example that's why Jujjtsu is included in all of OCA events (despite being the worst sport to watch) but good to see OCA admit this. so with the corrupt OCA you can buy your way in. how much they paid the OCA officials for this ?

 

OK I know Qatar is financially supporting Padel (and UAE is paying everything for Jujitsu) but who is behind Teqball?  ! I don't think Thailand can do that.

Suspect strongly that the Sultan of  is behind Global Wushu!  

 

Another one is long distance & ultra triathlon.  There are literally millions being paid out in prize money to attract big name athletes from several sports, huge FTA TV coverage but seemingly no prospect of any profit.

 

And the classic is obstacle racing, which has effectively bought up the ownership of Modern Pentathlon.
