 Elimination of demonstration sports
  • Some demonstration sports were included in various editions of the Olympic Games up until 1992. The Organizing Committees for the Olympic Games (OCOGs) could integrate demonstration sports into the Olympic programme. However, the organization of these demonstrations created a lot of extra work for the OCOGs, which had to provide services that were almost identical to those for the sports on the Olympic programme. Therefore, at the 95th Session of the International Olympic Committee (IOC), held in 1989 in Puerto Rico, it was decided that demonstration sports would be eliminated definitively from the 1996 Atlanta Games onwards.
