The opening ceremony for the 2024 Paris Olympics takes place on July 26 (though some official Olympic competitions begin starting July 24), but if you are eagerly awaiting the start of the games then you're in luck. Throughout June, the US Olympic Trials are taking place, as athletes across different sports look to secure their spot on Team USA. We have everything you need to know about the events right here.
Before you can go and compete against the other best athletes in the world, first you must prove you are among the best in the US. While some Olympic sports like basketball, golf and soccer determine their teams through a selection process, many sports hold their own competitions, with the best performers earning their spot on Team USA in various specialties. Among the trials that are going to be taking place this month are swimming (and other water sports), track & field and gymnastics.
