The Telegraph  

After Tom Cruise plunged into the Stade de France on Sunday, Paris officially handed over the Olympics to the Hollywood state of California. Here’s all you need to know about the next Games in Los Angeles 2028: Sports For the first time since 1900, cricket will be played at the Games in its T20 format. Sports making debuts at the Games include squash, after years of campaigning; flag football, a non-contact version of American football with smaller teams; and a new Paralympic discipline, paraclimbing. The International Olympic Committee has not included the sport on the LA 2028 program yet and has urged national boxing federations to create a new global boxing body or risk missing out. Venues LA joins Paris and London as a three-time host city, but the plan is to follow the French capital’s example in using as much existing infrastructure as possible.
