Breakdancing Among 4 Sports Proposed for Paris 2024 Olympics

Breakdancing could be contested at the 2024 Olympics after it was proposed as a new sport to the International Olympic Committee (IOC) by hosts Paris.

Surfing, climbing and skateboarding were also put forward for inclusion at the Paris Games, per BBC Sport.

The latter three are already set to debut as Olympic sports at Tokyo 2020. The IOC must make their decision as to whether to accept the four sports for 2024 by December of next year.

If they are approved, they will be added to the 28 sports already included in the Olympic programme.
