That should be reason enough for a new campaign: Esports must become Olympic. We still have 4 years left - and we won't give up. Paris is looking for sports that appeal to young people. #esports #olympic #IGG https://twitter.com/Naeem_IGG/status/1197944574104260609
The World Chess Federation #FIDE has started a campaign on the occasion of the Summer #Olympics 2024 in Paris 2 promote the inclusion of chess. Prerequisites for admission: On the one hand, the sport must have a tradition in France and on the other, it must appeal to young ppl.👀
Consequently, shouldn't #esports also become Olympic? Absolutely! In contrast to chess, we kill not only farmers, kings, and horses, but also aliens. 🖖🏻👽 and we also have peaceful competitions like football. esports #Olympia 2024 would be incredibly great for young ppl!
A legal opinion commissioned by the German Olympic Sports Federation now rejects such recognition as a sport. The document states that the term "sport" has been concretized "by many years of jurisprudence in the traditional sense of the requirements of physicality".
The Olympic Committee should be open to the interests of young people. The world does not stand still, it always goes ahead. 🚀🚀🚀 Not all digital games have to be allowed. Just as not all weapons are allowed in biathlon. Small-bore rifles are used here, not bazookas.😬
