(Reuters) - Canoeing,
taekwondo and modern pentathlon won a spot at the Krakow-Malopolska
2023 European Games after the European Olympic Committees
ratified their inclusion on Friday.
The inclusion of these three sports in the third edition of the
Games will offer qualification opportunities for athletes ahead
of the Paris 2024 Olympics.
Canoe slalom and modern pentathalon will make their debuts at
the European Games, while it will be a second appearance for
taekwondo which featured as part of the programme in Baku 2015.
The European Games are expected to be held in June 2023.
