Make Double Dutch an Olympic Sport! 

We call upon the International Olympic Committee (IOC) to recognize Double Dutch as an Olympic sport.

Double Dutch is a highly athletic and competitive discipline that combines speed, coordination, agility, endurance, creativity, and teamwork. It is practiced around the world by athletes of all ages and has established competitive structures, national championships, and international tournaments.

Reasons for Olympic Inclusion:

Athletic Excellence

Requires elite cardiovascular fitness, timing, coordination, and agility.

Athletes perform complex routines comparable to those seen in gymnastics and break dancing.

Global Participation

Double Dutch is practiced in numerous countries across North America, Europe, Asia, Africa, and Oceania.

International competitions already bring together athletes from around the world.

Youth Engagement

The sport is accessible, affordable, and popular among young people.

Olympic recognition would encourage greater participation in physical activity.

Cultural Significance

Double Dutch has deep cultural roots and has become an important form of athletic expression in many communities.

Olympic Values

Promotes excellence, friendship, respect, teamwork, and inclusion.

We urge the International Olympic Committee to consider the inclusion of Double Dutch in the Olympic Games to celebrate its cultural richness and to recognize it as a sport that inspires and unites communities worldwide.
