Olympics-Softball-Gen Z debut in Tokyo but will they be back for Los Angeles?


YOKOHAMA, Japan (Reuters) - The 14 youngest softball players during Tokyo 2020's opening round fared worse by some measures than the dozen oldest, but the newcomers are committed to getting on top at future Games - if they get the chance.

While ruled out for Paris 2024, softball could be announced next year as a Los Angeles 2028 sport and later for the 2032 Brisbane Games. Inclusion is far from certain, though.
