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

I'Equipe reports all proposals will be rejected likely unless they replace an event... ie like canoeing. They also report IAAF's cross country proposal is 4x1500m

 

Also reported is UWW has requested beach wrestling.

UWW will only get that if they ditch greco-roman so it ain't happening...

World Athletics statement

The event, which has been proposed for the 2024 Paris Olympic Games, would be a mixed team relay for 15 countries.

Each team would be composed of two men and two women. Each member of the team would run two legs of the 2.5km course, alternating between male and female athletes as each athlete completes the 2.5km course and hands over to a teammate.

Eurosport (go to platform for European sports fans) probably shows more live coverage of sepak takraw than freestyle skiing. It's just not popular at all. You can only really follow it on non-commented ES player feeds, late night shortened replays, or in-person. But then again, European WC events in these sports have next to none live audience.

As someone who has a (UK) Eurosport sub, I can confidently say that is not even close to being true xD

In one hand I would love Cross Country in the summer olympics (I'm more of a road racing fan, rather than track). If they are gpoing to add it to the summer events they have to do it right. They should take 10000m out (cause nobody cares about it), an put a full race. That rellay doesn't make any sense.

 

 

HOWEVER, id rather had cross country relay than 4x400 mixed. So if they change those events, I would be happy.

If we’re taking out races for the addition of cross country, it should absolutely be the 3000m Steeplechase, the event literally invented to replace cross country at the Olympics.

      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
