bidding for the 2030 Mediterranean Games. It would be their first foray into hosting a multi-sport competition.

ATSX might have something to say about that plan Link: https://www.icecross.org/en/atsx/

She came across as very relatable and quite genuine (at least to me). It was nice to have youthful, progressive leader on the world stage. It looks like pretty damn close battle to form a government for either of the three major parties.

A fun possibility with the inclusion of natural track luge is the simultaneous inclusion of ice cross downhill. You could have natural track luge the first week, and then take a few days in the middle of the Games to remodel the track and prepare it for two or three days of ice cross downhill at the end of the Games.

@rybak any thoughts on the acts having seen them in-person now?

Mammoth Mountain, known to the forum as a frequent host of the freestyle ski/snowboarding World Cup, recently passed 700 inches of snowfall for the season. I know imperial measurements aren’t everyone’s cup of tea, so that’s just over 17.75 meters of snow. They will also begin April with a base depth over 7 meters. It’s been a truly historic snow season in California. Records being shattered all over the state, and snow falling in some unusual places along the coast and deserts. Much of the state has gone from extreme drought to relatively normal conditions in just a few months. It’s been a wild ride, and some more mild, if not cold by Southern California standards, temperatures are expected to start off April.

I’ve been re-watching the 2015 European Games Beach Soccer tournament during my break from university. I really miss the warm weather now

IWGA announced the candidates for their upcoming executive board elections earlier this week… José Perurena will be the only candidate running for President.

Which would actually be possible since the provision against the inclusion of motorized sports was taken out of the Olympic Charter in the last few revisions.

I thought that sounded weird… It was probably Trentino, but I misheard with the audio

IOC does not have any problems with the sport of boxing, or with boxers, but with the IBA (according to the IOC spokesperson). This matches largely the rumors/reporting @Dragon had picked up on earlier.

Some notes from today’s IOC EB presser… remains on watch by the IOC, as does (both for access to sport for “women and young girls”) remains suspended for governance issues. making progress on governance issues. IOC still has some reservations about the appointment of a CEO. IFAF (American Football) will be recommended for full recognition at the IOC Session.
