IOC eliminates Hockey, Shooting, Weightlifting from the 2026 Youth Olympics

The IOC's executive board has confirmed the events and athlete quotas for the upcoming Youth Olympic Games, Dakar 2026.
The International Olympic Committee (IOC) has decided to exclude hockey, shooting, and weightlifting from the 2026 Youth Olympics in Dakar, Senegal. This decision was made to align with the IOC's strategy to innovate and adapt the Youth Olympic Games (YOG) to better suit the needs of young athletes and to reflect contemporary sports trends. The exclusion of these sports aims to reduce the overall cost and complexity of hosting the event, while also focusing on sports that are more popular among the youth or have a significant following in Africa. The IOC has introduced new sports like beach handball, futsal, and skateboarding, which are seen as more engaging for younger audiences. This move has sparked some controversy, particularly from nations where these sports are popular, but the IOC insists it is part of a broader effort to evolve the Games in line with global sports culture shifts.
