Paris Olympiad 2024

From what I saw we def added style to the closing ceremony. I hopr LA can deliver something special in four years' time. n
Can see one or two sports takig place on those beaches Wouldn't be surprised if we get beach football or beach cricket

T20 is making its debut in LA weird cos i thought would be in Brisbane

Lacrosse, Squash , Baseball and softball return and Flag football (Eggball )

should see if we could get a team gb flagball team and beat the yanks at it

I believe that there won't be breakdancing at the next Olympics. Also the lightweight rowing team races have been removed.

The t20 cricket will be interesting.. will their be a combined GB team. And will there be differing criteria as in the football, where I believe that they have to be 23 years or young with 3 exceptions.

If there ia no limit to age for flag football then we should get a forum team together to beat the yanks I think Snooks will terrify them as well as Skully up front us representing team GB at Flag football could be this forum's proudest moment..

I think they'll probably cut back on hockey a little to make room fot lacrosse (both are pretty much similar in style in some way). I wonder if there will be a extra world baseball classic qualifier will also function as an Olympic qualifier.

Having Lacrosse, babesball, and basketball will guarantee at least 6 gold medal for the USA.

I'll make a prophecy and say that the men's baseball final will be between the US and Japan, with Canada getting a bronze.

Edit: I've just looked up about flag football. It's nothing to do with football, it's more a cross of tag rugby and American Football. So that's another 2 medals that the USA are guaranteed to win.

Using their criteria why didn't the French include petanque or in the 2012 London Games include snooker, croquet and darts.

HP don't forget the T20 World cup was in USA/West Indies this year

BABESBALL? are you implying BS should send a team?

^ It's a new category in the boxing. Saves any arguements

Just want to say how much I enjoyed the Discovery+ coverage of the games. Every sport live made it so easy to dip in & out of different sports and sample events I’ve never paid much attention to like shooting & climbing.

I would think by the time the LA games come around we could be watching on the BBC in a different way.
