and basically to be part of the olympics, as our community, i am fired up because it will be at the dance. clearly this is a decision that has disappointed other sports. adam, what would you say to those who think it is not an olympic sport and it does not fit the 0lympic ideal. sport and it does not fit the olympic ideal. first of all, how do you define a sport? it is a physical activity. it conditions your body, keeps you healthy, keeps you fit. in that sense, it has it covered. i believe break dance is more than a sport. you look at where it came from, came from the streets, the people in the ghetto who had nothing. it was developed in the bronx. there were gang wars going on oi'i bronx. there were gang wars going on on their doorstep. this was something they created and it empowered them and give them an opportunity to leave that situation and to get out of the bronx and reach other places and neighbourhoods and become famous and become stars. to see it as a tool that was developed by street kids i'iow that was developed by street kids now coming into the one of the highest social pla

the vatican. now, should this be an olympic sport...breakdancing. at the paris 2024 games, with the organising committee saying break dancing would make the olympics "more urban" and "more artistic". our sports correspondent richard conway has more. it is enough to make your head spin. break dancing, or breaking, as it's more commonly known, has risen from the basements and streets of new york in the 1970s and is now headed to the dizzying heights of the paris games in 2024. breaking has come from such a small thing and in such a small amount of time, it came from just people in the bronxjustjamming and stuff and it's come up to this huge thing and people are going to see it in the olympics and be inspired, like, you know, i want to do this. but while it requires strength, agility and dedication, is it really worthy of a place at an olympics? this dance is so focused on competition. for the last 20, 25 years, we have seen people choreographing and dancing as though their moves are weapons. for me, it makes sense, you know what i mean, there's no reas

whether it can remain on the podium at the olympics, that remains to be seen. at the youth olympics in buenos aires last october, and pulled in the crowds. more traditional sports, such as karate and squash, appear to have lost out for 2024 and that, it seems, is all part of an effort by officials to keep the games relevant to a younger audience. now the decision to include breaking in paris has given b—boys and b—girls across the country golden ambitions for the future. when you saw like usain bolt or mo farah, and they run and win, they get that medal, and they stand up on those things, that's what i want to feel like. i want to be like them, but in breaking kind of style. the olympics is welcoming a new generation to its age—old ethos of faster, higher, stronger. as the world turns, so, too, must the games. worth doing just to get one of those funky names, isn't it? now to cricket — south african batsman hashim amla was dismissed without scoring — in a test match — for the first time in his career on thursday as sri lanka hold a slight advantage heading into

trans athletes have been openly allowed to compete since the 2004 olympics. for the ioc is that any sport that wishes to compete in the olympics, that international organisation also has to meet the ioc policies. so trans athletes have been openly allowed to compete at the world level since 2004. and not a single trans person has ever gone to the olympics since 2004, not a single trans athlete has gone to the olympics since 2015 when the regulations were made easier. an emotional steve stricker was close to tears on wednesday as he told a news conference what it means to him to be handed the task of regaining golf‘s ryder cup. stricker, who won the event once as a player, will lead the usa team in his home state of wisconsin as the american captain. some people see this, and they don't think i'm very passionate orfiery about playing the game of golf and what i do for a living, but deep down i'm very competitive. we want to win this more than ever, and i'm here to help in any way i can. so, i'm very blessed and happy to be here, thank you. that's all from spor

now a few months ago the future of the olympics looks to be going downhill fast as calgary became the city to abandon a bid to host them that see remaining bits also look close to pulling out but a new approach may save taxpayers money and the games themselves reports from sweden. as a winter olympic host stockholm has a good head start on most cities plenty of snow. fifteen minutes from the central station the stockholm is hoping they might in their lunchtime ski pass to the olympic stars in twenty twenty six i would just try to take advantage and enjoy we do like our winter sports no doubt i think it's great i think. sort of sheds light on the mental impact as well and if we can do something about that i think that would be. just a few months ago realising these hopes became an uphill struggle the swedish election installed a new stockholm council that refused to provide any financial backing for the olympics as the chance to host in twenty twenty six was being rejected by city leaders around the world but the decision of the city of stock hasn't killed off its bid the international

i don't think it's very surprising because the international olympic committee has lifted the ban on the olympic athletes and and recently back in september the world of doping agency reinstated the russian anti doping agency giving it renewing its authorization so it's not a big surprise there was even though there was opposition from some from some segments which continues however i think the tide has changed and now there's a growing realisation that that we that. international sports need to move forward and they need to re include the russian the russian athletes including the paralympic athletes what did you make of the blanket ban on the russian paralympians back in two thousand and sixteen in the first place was it justified at the time. i don't think so no because for one thing the the moscow laboratory which was the source of so much. so so many problems with gregory wrote jane cook being the director of the lab he's now living in the united states and being the source of a lot of the accusation but when that when that laboratory was. was deal authorized by water all of tho

but the decision of the city of stock hasn't killed off its bed the international olympic committee had already realized that money was putting cities off hosting the games a year ago they voted in a new way of doing things to emphasize cutting costs and that has turned what looked like a big problem for stockholm into one of its strengths. the politicians haven't changed course no games if it costs a single krone in tax but nearly all of venues are already built the bid includes currently hosting the alpine ski world championships. so with a bit of blue sky thinking and private money stock is budgeted to cost the average sweet precisely nothing a different olympic era from that which saw four point four billion dollars of the london summer games come from taxpayers our bid for the winter olympics and paralympics twenty twenty six is tailor made to fit into this new reality over the i.o.c. not only for twenty twenty six but can create the legacy that is positive for the future of the limbic movement use what you have where you have it and don't be letting. there are still only two bids

i didn't expect but for me means a love for my career a few months ago the future of the winter olympics seem to be going downhill calgary became the latest city to abandon a bid to host them on popularity with voters meant the two remaining bids also looked in danger of pulling out but a new approach may be saving both taxpayers' money and the games themselves from sweet. as a winter olympic host stockholm has a good head start on most cities plenty of snow and off piste slope fifteen minutes from the central station the stockholm is hoping they might live in their lunchtime ski pass to the olympic stars in twenty twenty six i would just try to take advantage and enjoy it we do like our winter sports no doubt i think it's great i think. sort of should slide on the mental impact as well and if we can do something about that i think. also. a few months ago realizing these hopes became an uphill struggle the swedish election installed a new stockholm council that refused to provide any financial backing for the olympics as the chance to host in twenty twenty six was being rejected by city

it to each governing body in each sport to determine whether or not to ban or allow russia into the olympic games and the media was very hostile towards this and said it should have been a blanket ban the international paralympic committee decided it would react in such a way as to satisfy the media demands and it did issue a blanket back i just held on to that do you think since. high justified was that blanket ban do you think back in twenty six that i don't think it was justified my own view is that it was overly punitive and a great many great great many an unknown number of paralympic athletes were excluded from the games without due process in other words we didn't know they may not have registered a negative or positive test we just don't know it because the ban was issued for russia as a country and so many individuals lost out now the peril of nickell in association has maintained that ban until today and quite suddenly it's decided enough is enough and we are now almost satisfied as you said earlier that there are a number of conditions that have to be satisfied but there will rea
