Who: Womens' National Ski Jumping Team
What: The IOC has taken Women's Ski Jumping off of the 2010 Olympic Menu.
When: They were removed from the menu on November 29, 2007.
Where: The Olympics will be taking place in Vancouver in 2010.
Why: The IOC has decided to remove this event because they stated there was not enough funding, popularity, contestants, time and enough international competition before the Olypics.
Problem: We believe that gender equality in sports is important and that since there is no alternate sport for the women to compete in that the IOC must allow them to compete.
We the students of Alice Jamieson Girls' Academy believe that the National Women's Ski Jumping team should be allowed to compete at the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics.
