Africa urged to boost athlete development ahead of LA 2028 Olympics

African National Olympic Committees have been challenged to strengthen athlete development programmes, improve sports infrastructure, and enhance regional cooperation as preparations for the Los Angeles 2028 Olympic Games gather momentum. The call was made during the Continental Olympic Solidarity Forum in Nairobi, which brought together National Olympic Committees from across Africa to discuss the pathway to Los Angeles 2028 and strategies for increasing the continent's medal success.
