With two years until the LA 2028 Olympics, several key changes and events are on the horizon. For the first time since 1968, track and field and swimming are swapping their traditional calendar spots, with track events and the women's 100-meter race kicking off the Games on July 15th at the L.A. Coliseum.

Gymnastics could see a highly competitive field, with established stars like Suni Lee and Simone Biles potentially returning, alongside rising talents and Katelyn Ohashi's comeback. Action sports like skateboarding and surfing, with strong Southern California ties, are expected to be popular, featuring emerging athletes like Julian Agliardi and Lilly Erickson.

The LA28 Games will also debut flag football, contributing to an equal number of men's and women's team sports. This inclusion, supported by the NFL, could see interest from players like Joe Burrow and Josh Allen. Meanwhile, the 2030 Winter Olympics in the French Alps will add freeride skiing and snowboarding, replacing Nordic combined.
