Best Answer

you have to be a really good player of that sport or hobby . you just don't send in a letter to them and ask to be in the Olympics. some one would be stupid to do that if your not the best.

That is the weirdest answer I have ever seen. I'll try and improve it though.

I think you have to be, not just confident in your abilities, and highly skilled, but also prepared to give up and sacrifice a lot in your life (junk food, free time, parties, etc.) to make it to the top.

I would recommend that you join a good athletics club. It doesn't matter if you haven't chosen an event yet, I would think coaches at the club can guide you to realize the extent of your abilities.

Beyond that, I grow less sure, but I assume that if you show promise and skill in your chosen event/s, you will be notified of Olympic trials. If not, you might be chosen for regional/national teams, etc.

Good luck!

Athletes are selected in accordance with IOC criteria. This normally involves the medal winning prowess of the athlete in world ranking events over a period of time. The IOC dictates how many places per sport there are available for each nation. Officials are selected from candidates proposed by the the sport international/national governing body. They are the top flight and will have jumped through many hoops along the way to pre-qualify for selection.

To get into the Olympics you must be selected by your country and they offer you to go, you may have to participate in certain events which will only let the best enter.

It is all about money and TV ratings. More people watch the Olympics when people they have heard of are competing than when people that they have not heard of are competing. This allows for more money to be made by those that are putting on the Olympics and televising the Olympics.
