Looks like snow volleyball has chance to be come new olympic sport arlt these games

You know what, I'm would be super okay with snow volleyball, cyclocross and cross country running being added to the winter games. They don't require any permanent venues and they would open up the winter Olympics to regions who aren't traditionally very involved in them.

Just came here to ask if we already know which event will be added on Italy's request, but apparently this already has been answered ... So Russia got figure skating team, China got aerials team

So it looks like relay in Nordic Combined was excluded from the programme, Team sprint instead

Lol  Jeanee Crane-Mauzy‘s explanation of what her ties to the country are is genuinely hilarious. She says she wants to compete for Vanuatu to raise awareness for climate change.

Cyclocross and Country Country are ineligible since they are not run on ice/snow. 
 

Generally, I’m all for new sports/disciplines making their way into the Olympics. Snow Volleyball has a sound format, and would probably open the door to less traditional nations.
 

However, traditional winter sports (for which the Winter Games were created in the first place), lose their protection. If Snow Volleyball is added, will Snow Handball, Snow Tennis, Ice Football, etc. be added? 
 

Every summer sport would just event a snow variant of itself (similar to what’s happened with beach variants in the last decade), in order to get an easy spot on the program. 
 

Winter Olympics should be for sports that require ice/snow in order happen, not for sports that just use it as a gimmick to get more international clout.

 

That’s just my opinion.

Can we have snow wrestling too :cheer: They will have to, plot twist, wrestle in the snow! And snow to the face should be allowed to make the bought more exciting, not like GR.

Cyclocross doesn't use it as a gimmick though. It's held on snow if there's snow, it's not if there's no snow. And it is definitely a sport that's held in the winter, although it probably would fit better in the Autumn Olympics.

be serious, guys! it's not gonna happen anything said here in the last few hours...

 

the only new events that could be part of the 2026 schedule are Natural Track Luge and Ski Mountaineering...

 

even Ice Climbing is highly unlikely to be named into the program...

 

and there is absolutely no chance anything else would eventually be accepted by the organizers...actually, it's way more likely that some existing events will be cut from the original schedule to save some money...

      TISC Annual 2025 - Voting Order & Provisional Grand Final Date     I have arranged a voting schedule for the upcoming TISC Annual 2025. Please see your jury's designated voting time in the table below. For convenience I have included a column showing the host country time in GMT and the local time for each jury based on their specific time-zone.   Please check to ensure the local time shown is correct as mistakes can happen!   Fortunately I have only had to make one swap to ensure every jury has a voting window within a reasonable time in their local time. That was achieved by swapping and . China will now vote in position #12 while moves to position #25.   For any juries who cannot personally deliver their votes during the live Grand Final, I will post their votes on their behalf.   Now that I have the voting schedule, I can begin work on the voting and scoreboard templates.   The provisional date I am setting for the Grand Final - Saturday 17th January. That's just under 3 weeks from now which I feel is necessary to allow enough time for me to fit in all the preparations around the holidays and an upcoming exam!     Session 1 Host Time (GMT) Local Time Jury Voting 09:00 10:00 Denmark 09:10 10:10 Sweden 09:20 10:20 Slovakia 09:30 16:30 Indonesia 09:40 09:40 Great Britain 09:50 10:50 Italy 10:00 11:00 Spain 10:10 15:10 Kazakhstan Break 10:20 - 12:00 GMT Session 2 Host Time Local Time Jury Voting 12:00 14:00 Ukraine 12:10 14:10 Bulgaria 12:20 13:20 Germany 12:30 20:30 China 12:40 13:40 France 12:50 18:20 India 13:00 14:00 Tunisia 13:10 13:10 Portugal 13:20 15:20 Greece Break 13:30 - 16:00 GMT Session 3 Host Time Local Time Jury Voting 16:00 18:00 Israel 16:10 17:10 Serbia 16:20 18:20 Romania 16:30 13:30 Brazil 16:40 17:40 Poland 16:50 10:50 Mexico 17:00 18:00 Netherlands 17:10 12:10 United States 17:20 18:20 Slovenia Break 17:30 - 19:00 GMT Session 4 Host Time Local Time Jury Voting 19:00 22:00 Turkey 19:10 20:10 Albania 19:20 20:20 Malta 19:30 19:30 Ireland 19:40 16:40 Argentina 19:50 21:50 Lithuania 20:00 14:00 Guatemala 20:10 12:10 Canada

      Yeah, American Samoa has snowboarder Kanoe Pelfrey, but I don’t think she’ll qualify in halfpipe. Ghana has skeleton athlete Akwasi Frimpong, but it will be difficult for him too.

      It looks like a problem at the FIS website. The same problem occurs in their cup standings tab where the points don't add up for some reason: https://www.fis-ski.com/DB/ski-jumping/cup-standings.html?sectorcode=JP&seasoncode=2026&cupcode=COC&disciplinecode=ALL&gendercode=M&nationcode=

      I am puzzled by the olympic rankings for the guys competing at the continental cup level. Why are the 'winter cup' points not being added to their ranking score? For instance David Rygl is shown on the olympic lists as being 144th with 2 points from the continental cup, his bio says that he has 2 summer points and 16 winter points, but under 'all' just 2. Do some winter points not count or something?
