The International Boxing Association (IBA) will not be able to select athletes for the 2024 Olympics in Paris at tournaments under its auspices.

This was announced by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) against the backdrop of the publication of the IBA selection rules for the 2024 Games..

" This decision remains in effect.

As announced in June 2022, the IBA will not qualify for the Paris Olympic boxing tournament,"

For European teams, the European Games will become the selection for the 2024 Olympics, and next year there will be two more world tournaments that are not held under the auspices of the IBA.

The IBA has announced that the future women's and men's World Championships will be the only qualifying tournaments ahead of the Games.. Boycott of these competitions due to the pro-Russian position of the IBA and the admission of Russians and Belarusians under their flags has already been announced by the USA, Czech Republic, Canada, Poland, Sweden, Great Britain and the Netherlands.
