Tokyo Officials challenge horrible COVID-19 with Olympic Games

Summer Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 is probably the only sportive activity that is challenging the COVID-19 pandemic. Tokyo Officials declared that they are planning to hold this activity as planned during July 2020.  

This is quite great news, considering that almost all other important sports activities are postponed for an unknown date. Football leagues and matches are postponed. Such as the Champions League, UEFA League, Nations League and all national football leagues in coronavirus affected countries. The decision for the EURO 2020 to be played in June - July 2020 is under serious considerations. In similar discussions are other European championships for indoor sports: weightlifting, etc.

Coming back to the Tokyo Summer Olimpic and Paralympic Games 2020, it is known that Japanese officials are not the ones who have the final say on the decision to hold them. It is the International Olympic Committee, which will make the final decision about these activities. But, the positive will of the hosting country is definitely a big step forward for a "Yes" decision.

Let's see if the Summer Olympic Games will be the first strong answer against the terror of Coronavirus pandemic in our lives. One thing is sure: all participants in these activities are working hard with the hop to achieve better results with their performances. And they will continue to prepare until hearing from the International Olympic Committee.

Other Sports Activities canceled or postponed

One of the first massive activities that were canceled were the marathons. The first one canceled was the Hong Kong Marathon and some other ones after it. Organizers were afraid of the high possibility of virus spread in such big people gatherings.
