Title: Vote for "new" sports in the Olympics
Post by: admin on May 08, 2013, 07:25:41 AM

It's been suggested that I put this link on-line to give Squash a boost but you can actually vote for other sports to be included in the Olympics too. It looks a bit like we're going to get wrestling, although that would be last on my personal list.........

VOTING UNDERWAY - SQUASH NEEDS YOUR HELP!!!

Please register your vote for squash to be included in the Olympics 2020 and your help will be greatly appreciated and very helpful to the bid.

 Vote for Squash here Inside The Games (http://www.insidethegames.biz/polls/71-which-sport-do-you-think-the-ioc-should-vote-to-include-on-the-olympic-programme-for-2020?acm=19194_1074&dm_i=1D9A,10C5A,7VQC4W,4ZD4R,1)

Bring back the Tug Of War, not seen since 1920 in Antwerp, Belgium! From 1900 to 1920 Great Britain have the best medal record in this event  ;)

I'm going to vote for a Staring event. I think Big Train did it best.
