That's correct, only two events as you told me earlier. it stated also in Squash federation news. Actually you said that before anybody and when WIKIPEDIA was saying 5 medal events by mistake ..credit goes to you my friend ..or you maybe a member of squash federation board

Yesterday few executive members "suggested" to keep Mr Bach for years and years ..was waiting a military orchestra with "BACK ...BACH..." in the background Today same people have got 4 yrs extention as executive board members ... My mind is confused and have a suspicious ...are these situations related All I can hear in back of my mind is ....."BACH ...BACH"

for the new sports when we are going to know number of athletes, number of quotas per NOCs, number of medal events, general format ...etc ...would it be today or at least some of them today?

from Egyptian Facebook sports page, athletes numbers increased to 11092 !! ..not 11100 not 11000 athletes ! ...very precise number ... but don't know from where they got the info

quoted from insidethegames website "The elimination of the fencing ranking round is confirmed for modern pentathlon at the Los Angeles 2028 Olympics" what does this mean, any idea what would be the new format? ..only fencing bonus round?

the inclusion of the 5 proposed sports became official now, just curious to know who are the 2 members voted against

Wikipedia says 5 medal events in squash .. not trusting wiki so much but are there proposed plans of what events would be included in the program Single M&W Teams M &W what would be the 5th ? mixed double?!

So, it has been confirmed All 5 additional sports approved (expected) reinstatement of Modern Pentathlon and Weightlifting boxing still on hold but seems safe under the governance of IOC https://www.insidethegames.biz/articles/1141685/ioc-eb-boxing-back-on-hold

France announced the weight categories they will participate in what’s your opinion @Benolympique

Korfball could be one of your choices I guess

both disappeared!! ..very strange

Was waiting your suggestion ..Speedball will sweep all podiums ..

is closer than ever to be the host, by the way ..which City would be proposed in your opinion?

Yarisledise Cirilo (Women Canoeing) Athletics Triple jump (could be 2 medals) plenty in Boxing and wrestling

I’ll start by and If the game hosted by (most likely London again) I’ll add Billiard Netball Squash If the game hosted by (Cairo or Alexandria) I’ll add Squash Karate Finswimming (Part of Underwater Sports)

Inspired by @Makedonas comment & @rafalgorka interesting new topics I have created this thread for fun to suggest 3-5 sports can be added to the program if your country hosting the Olympics The list of sports federations recognized by IOC as follows: Sports governed by International Federations recognised by the International Olympic Committee Air Sports American Football (Provisional) Automobile Bandy Baseball Softball Billiard Sports Bowling Bridge Cheerleading Chess Cricket Floorball Flying Disc Icestocksport Karate Kickboxing Korfball Lacrosse Life saving Motorcycle racing Mountaineering and Climbing Muaythai Netball Orienteering Pelota Vasca Petanque & Bowls Polo Powerboating Racquetball Sambo Squash Sumo Tug of War Underwater sports Water Ski Wushu But feel free to add other sports if you want (would be nice to state if it is not recognised yet)

Squash, Cricket and Lacross have a good setup but don't know if Flag Football (can't believe this name) and Baseball /Softball can compete at olympic level or too difficult!

Nice topic ..I'll go with potential surprise medals (not the most obvious ones) Sarah Chaari - Taekowndo -67 kg-W

Initially yes, but all the rumors expect to reinstate Boxing alongside with Weightlifting and even Modern Pentathlon has a great chance to remain in the program too, we will know for sure during the IOC session

This is my Weightlifting prediction, I don't think it fits within the day by day thread and don't want to disturb the good work done overthere, therefore decided to put them here: Weightlifting: M-61kg Fabin Li Theerapong Silachai Eko Yuli Irawan M-73 kg Shi Zhiyong (Unless china skipped this weight category) Rahmat Abdullah Weeraphon Wichuma Bozhidar Andreev M-89 kg Karlos Nasar Dayin Li /Tao Tian (Unless china skipped this weight category) Brayan Rodallegas Mir Mostafa Javadi M-102 kg Huanhua Liu Fares Elbakh Lesman Paredes M+102 kg Lasha Talakhadze Varazdat Lalayan Gor Minasyan In women category I’ll put a Chinese athlete in each category as the selection would be too tight W-49 kg Huihua Jiang Jordan Delacruz Mihaela Cambei Thanyathon / Surodchana (whoever selected) W-59 kg Shifang Luo Kamila Konotop Yenny Alvarez Maude Charron W-71 kg Guifang Liao Angie Palacios Loredana Toma Olivia Reeves W-81 kg Xiaomei Liang Sara Samir Tamara Salazar Solfrid Koanda (if played in this category) W+81 kg Wenwen Li Heyjeong Park Emily Campbell Duuangaksorn Chaidee

I know there is 1 qualification slot for Grand Prix, but is it the grand prix final winner or the grand prix top ranked athlete?

Twenty-eight sports included in youth-focused LA28 Initial Sports Programme - Olympic News (olympics.com) here you are, originally they were proposed as replacement for Weightlifting, Boxing and Modern Pentathlon, but if the three with the great heritage reinstated it doesn't mean they will drop surfing, climbing and skateboarding as they became part of the core program.

Climbing still there, I think it became a permanent sport. very nice one and fits in the olympic program in my opinion too.

Honestly speaking Breaking is not a bad sport.. it’s not my type but it claims a lot of attention from young generation specially atmosphere of the competition is very nice and adds amazing and attractive beauty to the event

I was surprised breaking got the first chance 😂
