no that's not true. Wrestling, Golf and Rugby they are all core sports. they are all 100% safe for 2024. the only core sport which is not safe is Weightlifting. (and now boxing)

 

they dropped wrestling once but then wrestling had a competition with some other sports like Squash to get its place back as a core  sport.

Oh, ok. Some sport still will likely replace boxing then.

There's a strong rumor that the IOC and the organizing committee would consider the reintroduction of karate if the World Karate Federation changed a few rules, there's hope because they are already t

I'm the only one who thinks this is kind of stupid? Olympic sports should have some sort of a long term plan, no just one appearence and that's all. 2028 Olympics being in LA is going to push for

lol we are going to end up with like 5 entries per event at this rate. More sports in the same quota = less athletes competing per event. Stupid idea.   If you are going to add sports, incre

No, wrestling wasn't voted a core sport then - the 25 core sports for Tokyo 2020 were voted en bloc, as the Olympic Charter said, thus the EB proposal of voting wrestling as an additional sport together with squash and baseball/softball, with the happy end for wrestling for 2020 and 2024, as well as rugby 7 and golf were voted additional for 2016 and 2020, so they weren't proposed to core sports nor the additional sports.

 

I checked the Olympic Charter archive - in Buenos Aires in 2013, when the Charter from 2011 was in force, there was this term of "sports core" consisting of 25 sports, this wasn't changed during Session in Buenos Aires, but the next version, from the 2015, already hasn't the term "sports core" (it was BLR 45.2 for summer and BLR 45.3 for winter).

 

So this discussion is in fact all about history.

A few bits about Paris additionnal sports in today's l'Equipe.

 

  • 5 sports max, IOC is pushing for less
  • Domestic popularity is not a priority anymore
  • First list will be sent by Paris 2024 next month (no more sports could be added after that), will be released during IOC next session (June).
  • Only  ~10 sports really stand a chance : The five from Tokyo, wakeboarding, squash, wushu, bowling, pétanque and billard 

 

They also confirm that additional sports will have to fit with the Paris 2024 venues map and that the additional sports quotas will have to fit under the 10 500 overall athletes quotas (Baseball beeing :nopompom:)

Yay for bowling

Boooo for wushu

 

Karate, TWD, Judo, Wushu at the same olympics. So much fun. :nopompom:

 

Thankfully, I don't believe they will be chosen. Global youth appeal sounds like it will be the main critera from now on.

What do you think the chances are of baseball/softball being retained for 2024?

Small, unfortunately. They were allready small to start with, but with additional sports quotas counting in the overall sport quotas* their chances are severely reduced (or of any other team sport for that matter).

 

The venue is also an issue. The french federation do have a plan for a national stadium, but it's in another part of Paris, it doesn't fit with other venues at all.

 

A month ago, there was a rumour that baseball5 could be pushed over baseball/softball, probably because of these two reasons.

 

*It won't be the case in Tokyo

So obviously pétanque and billiards.

 

Spoiler

And bowling, judging by the fact we were surrounded by 95% screaming 6-year olds when going to the bowling alley a few days ago.

      2 things...   first, for what concerns the cooperation between inline skating and speedskating federations...sorry to disppoint some of you, but there's a great cooperation between them   the point is that many "summer" skaters just don't want to try the ice because they have too much to give up for that   you name places like Collalbo or Baselga, but for the "summer skating" guys from centeral and southern regions it's not an option, it's not that they make it for a living with those disciplines, they have to focus on their studies and build a post-competitive sport career and they just can't place themselves into a hole in the mountains when they maybe are studying in some prestigious universities in the big cities   as I already posted more than once, the idea of covering one of those tracks in the mountains was something idiotic, a political concession impossible to be sustained   the one and only chance to build a true legacy and an efficient, attractive national training center was to build a permanent indoor oval in Milan, beside the Forum   that would have given all the "summer skaters" a true opportunity to try the ice experience and at the same time find the most useful, attractive, prestigious places to continue their studies and try and manage them together with their sports career   any other place wouldn't stand a chance   second...don't give Salvini any credit he doesn't deserve...actually, I think he doesn't even know that in Cortina there's a sliding sports track    it's not thanks to him that the Cortina track's building finally went underway

      very poor performance by the US bullpen both Yesterday and Today    not very impressed by this US team for the entire tournament, also in the Mexican first group (Panama deserved to qualify more than them, but they were lucky with the draw and won the decisive direct matchup)   Venezuela confirmed themselves as a very strong team at bat, but with too many troubles on the mound   Today against Japan they had to make a pitching change already in the 1st inning and basically they had to go for a bullpen game, but it didn't come out like the Dodgers'   Japan always on top of their game, even when the pitching staff doesn't perform at best...frankly, they look more and more unbeatable when no MLB superstar is involved (like in this case), but also when it comes down to the top of the pops it's not that they look worse (see 2023 WBC)  there's a serious risk that their domination becomes even too easy, the gap between them and the rest of the world is widening year after year   Taiwan might look like a surprise, but after the 2023 fail, I was sure they were going to rebound and establish themselves among the top teams in the WBSC tournaments, as they are very good in each and every aspect of the game (batting, pitching...maybe a bit less on defense, but you can't have it all)
