Additional sports.
Paris took the opportunity which is giving by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) in the Olympic Agenda 2020 to propose additional sports to promote it. The International Olympic Committee (IOC) is wishing to set a new standard for Youth-centered, gender-balanced, and open to everyone games. Paris 2024 submitted its proposal to the International Olympic Committee (IOC) integrate four new sports that are closely linked with youth and give prizes for creativity and athleticism. These sports are breaking, climbing, skateboarding, surfing. All four are simple to join, and those who do them build communities that are very busy on social media.

The whole point of Paris 2024 Olympic is to put on an event that is planned by and for the players. The Athletes Commission was made so they can speak out. Every committee planning an Olympic or Paralympic Games, but Paris 2024 has chosen to make it bigger.
Short History Of Olympic Games
The first Olympic Games that we know, took place in 776 B.C. And had just one event: a long foot race of about 200 yards. It took place on a plain by the River Alpheus (now the Ruphia), outside of the Greek town of Olympia. The Greeks based their calendar on “Olympiads,” which are the four-year gaps between the famous games.
In 1896, Greece hosted the first modern Olympics. They were inspired by Baron Pierre de Coubertin, who thought that since youth and sports have always gone together, education and sports could help people around the world understand each other better.
The main group in charge of putting on the Games is called the International Olympic Committee (IOC). The International Olympic (IOC) group, National Olympic Committees of each participating country, And the organizing group of the host city all play important roles as well in it.
