New sports given go-ahead for Olympic Games in 2028

breakingnews.ie

Cricket, squash, baseball/softball, lacrosse and flag football will all be included in the Olympic programme at the Los Angeles Games in 2028.

The proposal was approved at the International Olympic Committee Session in Mumbai on Monday, with only two delegates voting against the new events.

Cricket returns to the Games for the first time in 128 years in the form of six-team men’s and women’s T20 tournaments, lacrosse for the first time as a medal sport since 1908 while baseball has featured at the Olympics several times.

The proposal from the Organising Committee of the Olympic Games Los Angeles 2028 (@LA28) to include five new sports in the programme has been accepted by the IOC Session.

The connection was very good but Iyer was alert at square leg and he made no mistake in completing a sharp catch. Following the dismissal, Shreyas gestured towards the dressing room to give him the "fielder of the match" medal - a custom that the team has introduced during the ongoing competition.
