Kids sport in Olympic

This is what we call the trampoline, something which is very common in country like Australia, where a lot of family probably got this in their backyard for kids. Well, what I don’t understand is, Trampoline is actually an Olympic event since Sydney Olympic 2000! Why would they put something belong to kid in a mega sports meet like Olympic? Noone knows…
And during this Beijing Olympic, a new event is created, call BMX. How cool is that, a BMX race in Olympic Game? So the participants can ride in their own bike they ride since young and score medals in their childhood company. Very heart-warming huh?

I guess sometimes it is just very hard to understand what the IOC is thinking and their criteria to include a new sports in Olympic. Remember we used to fight so hard to include the Badminton? and now even the proper sports like squash and sepak takraw is not included in the Olympic. if not, probably Malaysia will be happier because she got the world number one in squash Nicole David.


Anyway, enjoy the game, not much days left...
