The organizing committee for the 2010 Olympic Winter Games in Vancouver is being taken to court in an effort to have Women’s ski jumping added as an official event at the Games. On the one hand the lawsuit is a bit of an oddity given that the International Olympic Committee (”IOC”) decides what events are to be officially sanctioned and not an individual organizing committee. However, it is sure to bring a good deal of attention and perhaps pressure on the IOC to reconsider its stance. The IOC, thus far, has refused to allow women to compete based on the claim that there are not enough women ski jumpers of a high enough caliber. That seems to be a dubious claim
