Rugby was a new addition to the Olympics in 2016, well, at least in most of our lifetimes, last appearing in 1928. I ended up really enjoying it, even my mom and brother watched the final with me, my brother is not really too big on sports. I will be marking the calendar for this event in 2020.

Shooting...I'm not sure how this qualifies as an Olympic event, but it does. At least they stopped shooting live pigeons, as was done in the early modern Olympic revival. I definitely could not support that event if it still existed. I have three shooters in my collection.

Shot Put is one of the few Olympic events that date back to the ancient Olympics. It's kind of gone out of popularity, which explains why only 3 shot putters appear in my collection.

Skeleton is a lot like Luge, only you go down the track face first instead of feet first. Yikes! 3 Skeletonners appear in my collection, and no, I don't know what the proper plural is.

I'm not sure if water skiing is a sport or a recreational activity but SI for Kids included it so I did too. 3 of them appear in my collection, all from SI for Kids sets.

I love auto racing, I enjoy boat racing, bicycle racing, any form of racing, and I love animals...yet I can't get into horse racing, despite being close to and spending time in Saratoga. Maybe it just gets done too quickly. I don't know. I have two jockeys in my collection, and these two were the final category I needed to have contributed to every single one on the Database, and is the only reason I added them to my collection.

Lacrosse is a sport I don't know a whole lot about, but with only two cards (and athletes) in my entire collection, it doesn't seem like something I'll have much opportunity to learn about. Unless I go to Wikipedia of course.

Sailing is a fun sport, but only puts two people into my collection. I most associate sailing with Bluenose, the ship on the Canadian 10 cent piece.

I don't consider skateboarding a sport, probably due to the problems we've had with local skateboarders vandalizing our house and breaking into our cars. It's been added to the Olympics for 2020 and I know that I will not be watching it, one of only 3 events I will not watch. Thankfully only 2 of them appear in my collection, although I do not have an issue with either of them. Both come from SI for Kids.

Table Tennis (aka Ping Pong) is very intense. One of the fastest paces among Olympic events. The Asian counties have absolutely dominated the event in the Olympics, and it doesn't even appear in the 2016 Olympic card set. Only two athletes appear in my collection from this sport.
