I could also see them giving Squash it's long awaited Olympic debut. It's quite popular in France so finding a venue wouldn't be hard and it's got a solid ranking system with all continents represented at least once in the top 40 in both men's and women's divisions.

prso1000 540 Posted April 4, 2022 #1158 Share Posted April 4, 2022 Please no karate, I was very much in favor before as Croatia has few good fighters. But after watching karate for the first time, I think it is the most boring and totally non-sense combat sport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

intoronto 4,244 Posted April 4, 2022 #1160 Share Posted April 4, 2022 Yea no new sport is being added. There is too much planning and jobs they would need to hire in a short time frame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
