RIO DE JANEIRO -- Olympic leaders approved the addition of five sports to the program of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics on Wednesday, including the return of baseball-softball and the introduction of youth-oriented events such as skateboarding and surfing.The International Olympic Committee voted to accept the five-sport package, which also includes karate and sport climbing.The five, which were proposed for inclusion last year by Tokyo organizers, were approved unanimously by the IOC members.Under new IOC rules, local organizers can propose the inclusion of at least one additional sport for their games. Wednesdays approval was for the Tokyo Games only.The new sports will add 18 events and 474 athletes to the program. The Tokyo Games will now feature 33 sports and about 11,000 athletes, compared to the usual number of 28 sports and 10,500 athletes.The IOC said the package presents a mix of the traditional and youth-focused sports.This will help make the games one of the most innovative games in our history, IOC vice president John Coates said.Skateboarding will have street and park events, and feature 80 athletes -- 40 men and 40 women, while surfing will have two shortboard events for 40 competitors.Organizers hope skateboarding will catch on with worldwide viewers as halfpipe in snowboarding did in the Winter Olympics.There are more participants in skateboarding than most sports so I feel like they (the Olympics) need our credibility and they need our excitement level in their Summer Games, skateboarding icon Tony Hawk said recently.Air Jordan Schweiz Schuhe Shop On Sale . -- The Bishops Gaiters are showing they belong among the countrys top varsity ftball teams.
