Side-by-side with the Paralympic Games, these will go down as the one of the biggest events taking place in France; becoming the center of the world of sports. Due to the rescheduling in 2020, the last Olympic games were played almost two years ago in 2022. The Olympics are a series of competitions between a plethora of sports. Four new ones will be added this year: breaking, sport climbing, surfing, and skateboarding. There\u2019s no predicting the new wave of fans that will appear this year to view these, especially the youth. \u201cI was super excited to hear about the new sports being added. Sport climbing is something I participate in. Surfing and skateboarding are both sports I keep up with on a regular basis as well. I think there\u2019s a huge percentage of people that do all of these too. I\u2019ve met a bunch so this will definitely bring in more watchers,\u201d said Deerfield Beach High School junior Julianah Cha Pit. There has not been an Olympics Game since 2022 in Beijing, so it is exciting to have it back for a competitive event that sports lovers will enjoy. Besides the entertaining side of the Olympics, there is also a reason why it takes place. The Olympics is said to originate from a Greek mythology story of a form of honoring the Greek god Zeus. But the modern Olympics began in Athens, Greece in 1896 as a way of uniting different athletes and competing for gold. Ancient Greeks loved competitions of all sorts and found the Olympics as a form of entertainment. As time passed, the idea of the Olympics was very much the same except the sports have increased and their popularity has grown. Now, the Olympics occur every four years and athletes become recognized for the talent and work they put into sports that they love. One of the most well-known Olympic champions is Simone Biles, an American gymnast who won the Gymnastics World Championships and seven Olympic medals. \u201cI think the Olympics is very fun to watch, very entertaining and it shines light on athletes who are really good,\u201d said DBHS freshman Brianna Rivera. The Olympics are hosted by different countries for every game. This allows every nation to be noticed. \u201cThe Olympics are important because it can help economically to whatever country is holding the Olympics and bring attention to it,\u201d added Rivera. It\u2019s clear to say that everyone in every corner of the world will be looking forward to the next 2024 Olympics Game and they hope to see another intense game Written by Janna Margar Pit\u00a0| Graphic Designed by Janna Margar Pit Published December 21, 2023\u00a0|\u00a0ePathfinder\u00a0|\u00a0Sports\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-34470","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","post-no-thumbnail"],"views":102,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pfrXB7-8XY","jetpack-related-posts":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/deerfieldbeachhigh.net\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34470","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/deerfieldbeachhigh.net\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/deerfieldbeachhigh.net\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/deerfieldbeachhigh.net\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/deerfieldbeachhigh.net\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=34470"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/deerfieldbeachhigh.net\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34470\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":34550,"href":"https:\/\/deerfieldbeachhigh.net\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34470\/revisions\/34550"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/deerfieldbeachhigh.net\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=34470"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/deerfieldbeachhigh.net\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=34470"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/deerfieldbeachhigh.net\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=34470"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
