Statement From USOC Chairman of the Board Peter Ueberroth Regarding the Status of Softball and Baseball on the 2012 Olympic Program
// U.S. Olympic Committee // February 9, 2006
"The dreams of young people from around the world who aspire to compete in the Olympic Games in softball and baseball were dealt a setback today.
We are disappointed the IOC chose to not reconsider its decision to eliminate these sports from the 2012 Olympic Games program.
However, we will continue working with the international federations for these two sports, along with other countries, to see that they are reinstated to the Olympic program at the earliest opportunity."
