Olympic Committee meets Jordan Youth Team
The Jordan Olympic Committee held a meeting for the delegation participating in the Youth Olympic Games in Dakar 2026, scheduled from October 31 to November 13. Thirteen athletes from Jordan will compete across eight sports: taekwondo, boxing, swimming, beach wrestling, athletics, fencing, triathlon, and judo. This is the largest Jordanian participation in terms of the variety of sports and the number of athletes, equaling the record set in Buenos Aires 2018. The organizational and medical guidelines were reviewed, with an emphasis on anti-doping and psychological preparation, to ensure fair competition and athlete safety. It is worth noting that Jordan has previously won three medals in past editions, all in taekwondo. The event is expected to feature approximately 2,700 athletes from around the world, marking Africa’s first time hosting the Youth Olympics.
