Your own Summer Olympic Games Programme

[Quasit 865]

My dream programme is not realistic since I'm all about adding more sports and events, but in a balanced way.

 

I don't mind mixed events, especially if a sport doesn't justify two separate team events, like in Triathlon for example. I also don't care about limiting athletes due to costs but there will be tons of events in my programme so there will be cuts. Also, some pure team sports would be just fine with just 8-12 teams participating.

 

I'm not trying to equalise between men's and women's events too much where I don't see the necessity. There are women-only sports in the programme but then there will be sports with more men's events.

 

Aquatics - Diving [11] +3

• 3m Springboard (m/w)
• 10m Platform (m/w)
• Synchronised 3m Springboard (m/w)
• Synchronised 10m Platform (m/w)
• Mixed Team (mixed)
• High Diving (m/w)

I'll go with a mixed team event here (one Springboard and one Platform athlete). High Diving as well because it's a different from indoor diving and already well-established. Also more changes for non-Chinese. No need for 1m Springboard, in my opinion.

 

Aquatics - Swimming [33] -4

• 50m Freestyle (m/w)
• 100m Freestyle (m/w)
• 200m Freestyle (m/w)
• 400m Freestyle (m/w)
• 800m Freestyle (m/w)
• 1500m Freestyle (m/w)
• 4x100m Freestyle Relay (m/w)
• 4x200m Freestyle Relay (m/w)
• 100m Breaststroke (m/w)
• 200m Breaststroke (m/w)
• 100m Butterfly (m/w)
• 200m Butterfly (m/w)
• 100m Backstroke (m/w)
• 200m Backstroke (m/w)
• 200m Individual Medley (m/w)
• 400m Individual Medley (m/w)
• 4x100m Medley Relay (m/w/mixed)
• 10km Open Water (m/w)
• 4x5km Open Water (mixed)

I might add a Mixed Freestyle event somewhere later but Mixed Medley is just nonsense. Also, 200m IM and 4x200m have to go, I need room for something else that involves swimming later. Swimming is not too competitive between nations anyway. Open Water gets a team event.

 

Aquatics - Synchronised Swimming [2] ±0

• Women's Duet (w)
• Women's Team (w)

I'll let it pass... but maybe Singles instead of Duet. Don't care too much anyway.

 

Aquatics - Water Polo [2] ±0

• Tournament (m/w)

Archery [8] +3

• Individual Recurve (m/w)
• Team Recurve (m/w/mixed)
• Individual Compound (m/w)
• Team Compound (m/w)

Compound events are added, no mixed needed in this sport, in my opinion.

 

Athletics [49] +1

• 100m (m/w)
• 200m (m/w)
• 400m (m/w)
• 800m (m/w)
• 1500m (m/w)
• 5000m (m/w)
• 10,000m (m/w)
• 110m/100m Hurdles (m/w)
• 400m Hurdles (m/w)
• 3000m Steeplechase (m/w)
• 4x100m Relay (m/w)
• 4x400m Relay (m/w/mixed)
• Marathon (m/w)
• 20km Race Walk (m/w)
• 50km Race Walk (m/w)
• Long Jump (m/w)
• Triple Jump (m/w)
• High Jump (m/w)
• Pole Vault (m/w)
• Shot Put (m/w)
• Discus Throw (m/w)
• Javelin Throw (m/w)
• Hammer Throw (m/w)
• Heptathlon (w)
• Decathlon (m)

I'm not desperately trying to make it up to 50 events. Athletics is fine the way it is, the only event added is Women's 50km Race Walk.

 

Badminton [5] ±0

• Singles (m/w)
• Doubles (m/w/mixed)

Baseball [1] ±0

• Tournament (m)

Increased to 8 teams.

 

Basketball [2] -2

• 3x3 Tournament (m/w)
• Tournament (m/w)

Watched 3x3 recently, don't like it.

 

Boxing [13] ±0

• 8 Men's weights
• 5 Women's weights

Canoeing - Slalom [6] +2

• K-1 (m/w)
• C-1 (m/w)
• C-2 (m)
• Team Relay (mixed)

Men's K-2 has to return (hello, hckosice) and this sport also deserves a team event. How about a mixed team event with 1 K-1 and 1 C-1 athlete for each gender?

 

Canoeing - Sprint [12] ±0

• K-1 200m (m/w)
• K-1 500m (w)
• K-1 1000m (m)
• K-2 500m (w)
• K-2 1000m (m)
• K-4 500m (m/w)
• K-4 1000m (m)
• C-1 200m (w)
• C-1 1000m (m)
• C-2 500m (w)
• C-2 1000m (m)

Men's K-4 should be of 1000m distance but the programme still looks weird. Maybe I will change something here later. I won't go above 12 events though.

 

Cycling - BMX [4] ±0

• BMX Race (m/w)
• Park (m/w)

Cycling - Mountain Bike [4] +2

• Men's/Women's Race (m/w)
• Downhill (m/w)

BMX has a freestyle event, Road Cycling has a time trial and MTB Cycling will get the Downhill event added to the programme.

 

Cycling - Road [4] ±0

• Road Race (m/w)
• Time Trial (m/w)

Cycling - Track [14] +2

• 500m Time Trial (w)
• 1,000m Time Trial (m)
• Individual Sprint (m/w)
• Team Sprint (m/w)
• Team Pursuit (m/w)
• Keirin (m/w)
• Points Race (m/w)
• Omnium (m/w)
• Madison (m/w)

I don't like Keirin, so it's going to be replaced by the Time Trials; Points Race returns as a single event.

The Omnium goes back being what it should be, an overall discipline containing a good mix of sprint and endurance events. It should also feature all the non-Olympic disciplines like Individual Pursuit, Scratch, Elimination, Flying Lap and the Keirin can be a part of Omnium too.

 

Equestrian [4] -2

• Individual Dressage (mixed)
• Team Dressage (mixed)
• Individual Jumping (mixed)
• Team Jumping (mixed)
• Individual Eventing (mixed)
• Team Eventing (mixed)
• Individual Endurance (mixed)
• Team Endurance (mixed)

My biggest issue is this sport. Personally, I would have it out altogether but the thing is, we still have Jumping as part of Modern Pentathlon and that will stay. So it would not make sense to have riding events just as part of MP. I don't like Dressage, I never watch it. However, just having 2 events is not enough for this sport to stay in either. So I'm going to add Endurance and take out everything else that is artistic.

 

The other option I have is taking out Equestrian as a whole and either go for a "Tetrathlon" or choose something else for the jumping part in MP.

 

Fencing [12] ±0

• Individual Foil (m/w)
• Team Foil (m/w)
• Individual Épée (m/w)
• Team Épée (m/w)
• Individual Sabre (m/w)
• Team Sabre (m/w)

Field Hockey [2] ±0

• Tournament (m/w)

Football [2] ±0

• U-23 Tournament (m/w)

The U-23 rule is dropped. That doesn't automatically mean the best of each team will be playing but at least the tournament won't be limited to 3 non-U 23 players anymore.

 

Golf [4] +2

• Individual Stroke Play (m/w)
• Team Match Play (m/w)

Foursome Match Play is added as a team event. 8 teams per gender.

 

Gymnastics - Artistic [14] ±0

• Individual All-Around (m/w)
• Team All-Around (m/w)
• Floor (m/w)
• Vault (m/w)
• Pommel Horse (m)
• Rings (m)
• Parallel Bars (m)
• Horizontal Bar (m)
• Balance Beam (w)
• Uneven Bars (w)

Gymnastics - Rhythmic [2] ±0

• Individual All-Around (w)
• Group All-Around (w)

Gymnastics - Trampoline [4] +2

• Individual (m/w)
• Tumbling (m/w)

Double Mini and Synchronised are nice too but we can't have everything.

 

Handball [2] ±0

• Tournament (m/w)

Judo [14] -1

• 7 Men's weights
• 7 women's weights
• Team Event (mixed)

Something has to be cut... so no team events in combat sports.

 

Karate [8] ±0

• 4 Men's Kumite weights
• 4 Women's Kumite weights
• Individual Kata (m/w)

Kata will have to make room for Wushu later.

 

Modern Pentathlon [3] +1

• Individual (m/w)
• Mixed Team Relay (mixed)

Of course a team event is added here as well.

 

Rowing [12] -2

• Single Sculls (m/w)
• Double Sculls (m/w)
• Lightweight Double Sculls (m/w)
• Quadruple Sculls (m/w)
• Pairs (m/w)
• Fours (m/w)
• Eights (m/w)

I have nothing against Lightweight Rowing. I would even add Lightweight Singles but again we have to drop something.

 

Rugby Sevens [2] ±0

• Tournament (m/w)

Sailing [10] ±0

• RS:X (m/w)
• Laser (m)
• Laser Radial (w)
• Finn (m)
• 470 (m/w)
• 49er (m)
• 49er FX (w)
• Nacra 17 (mixed)

I don't know enough about Sailing but I've noticed the absence of keelboats.

Debating if Star and Yngling would replace Finn and Nacra 17. At any rate, no more than 10 events.

 

Shooting [15] ±0

• 10m Air Rifle (m/w)
• Mixed Team 10m Air Rifle (mixed)
• 50m Rifle Three Positions (m/w)
• 300m Rifle Prone (m)
• 10m Air Pistol (m/w)
• Mixed Team 10m Air Pistol (mixed)
• 25m Pistol (w)
• 25m Rapid Fire Pistol (m)
• 50m Pistol (m)
• Trap (m/w)
• Double Trap (m)
• Mixed Team Trap (mixed)
• Skeet (m/w)

50m Pistol and Double Trap will stay in my book and I'd also like to see 300m Rifle. We're going with Prone here. As 15 events should suffice, those events will be men-only. Essentially the way it was before, just 300m Rifle Prone instead of 50m.

 

Skateboarding [4] ±0

• Park (m/w)
• Street (m/w)

Softball [1] ±0

• Tournament (w)

Sport Climbing [4] +2

• Combined (m/w)
• Speed (m/w)
• Lead (m/w)

There should be a proper event for Speed and Lead instead of that combined idea.

 

Surfing [2] ±0

• Shortboard (m/w)

Table Tennis [5] ±0

• Singles (m/w)
• Doubles (m/w/mixed)
• Team (m/w)

As long as there are doubles events, there's no need for additional team events.

 

Taekwondo [10] +2

• 5 Men's weights
• 5 Women's weights

This sport is popular enough for there being another weight class.

 

Tennis [5] ±0

• Singles (m/w)
• Doubles (m/w/mixed)

Triathlon [3] ±0

• Individual Race (m/w)
• Mixed Team Relay (mixed)

Volleyball - Beach [2] ±0

• Tournament (m/w)

Down to 16 teams and one team per NOC.

 

Volleyball - Indoor [2] ±0

• Tournament (m/w)

Weightlifting [14] ±0

• 7 Men's weights
• 7 Women's weights

Wrestling [18] ±0

• 6 Men's Freestyle weights
• 6 Men's Greco-Roman weights
• 6 Women's Freestyle weights

Maybe even down to 15 (5 per category).

 

Additional Sports [10; 44 Events]

 

Now comes the more interesting part...

• Cricket Twenty-20 [2] -> Tournament (m/w)
• Cue Sports [4] -> Snooker (m); Six-red Snooker (w); Nine-ball Pool (m/w)
• Finswimming [4] -> 100m Surface (m/w); 400m Surface (m/w)
• Futsal [2] -> Tournament (m/w) - 8 teams
• Jiu-jitsu [6] -> 3 Men's Ne-Waza weights; 3 Women's Ne-Waza weights
• Kickboxing [7] -> 4 Men's K-1 rules weights; 3 Women's K-1 rules weights
• Rafting [2] -> Downriver (m/w)
• Roller Sports [5] -> 500m Sprint (m/w); 20,000m Elimination (m/w); Artistic Pairs (mixed)

That's it for the moment but knowing me, there will more changes.

Total athletes: ---

Days of competition: 19 (including Day -2, Day -1 and Day 0 before the Opening Ceremony)

Eventing is "artistic"? And pure dressage too?

 

Do enlighten me please.

Well, of course I'm no expert but FEI describes Dressage as "ultimate expression of horse training and elegance". I could have put "artistic" in quotes but wouldn't you see Dressage as a form of performing art and thus make it literally speaking artistic?

 

I treated Eventing the same in my list because Dressage is part of it.

Eventing because Dressage is part of it.

 

Same definition can be used for artistic gymnastics (minus the horse part). Anyway, you either do a flying change (for example) correctly or incorrectly, there is nothing artistic about it. Just like there is nothing artistic about doing a specific vault in gymnastics, you either do it or not.

 

Of course in both cases there are varying degrees about how well you do it, hence the different marks.

Canoeing - Slalom [6] +2

• K-1 (m/w)
• K-2 (m)
• C-1 (m/w)
• Team Relay (mixed)

Men's K-2 has to return (hello, hckosice) and this sport also deserves a team event. How about a mixed team event with 1 K-1 and 1 C-1 athlete for each gender?

 

Canoeing - Sprint [12] ±0

• K-1 200m (m/w)
• K-1 500m (w)
• K-1 1000m (m)
• K-2 500m (w)
• K-2 1000m (m)
• K-4 500m (m/w)

• C-1 200m (w)
• C-1 1000m (m)
• C-2 500m (w)
• C-2 1000m (m)

Men's K-4 should be of 1000m distance but the programme still looks weird. Maybe I will change something here later. I won't go above 12 events though.

 

K2 canoeing slalom would be for sure interesting to see but I do still prefer the C2 and rather the nowadays classic team events in all events (which would need the increasing of the quotas for 3 athletes per country) than a mixed relay that doesn´t exist actually at all.

 

but I am 100% for the k4-1000 all the way

Quotas given to Sailing are just too many. Not more than 20 boats in each event, while two person dingy should get 12-14 quotas at most. This along with some rowing events like the eights are not allowing newer sports to be played. 

 

And which newer sports should be added?

Basically with more quotas, there are possibilities for team sports with at least 8 teams in each gender and also more individual events . Be it Baseball /Softball,Kabaddi, Canoe Polo, Polo, Cricket, Wushu, Teqball, Acrobatics, Chess or Sepaktakraw. Not to forget Karate which is not in Paris.
