There is no single age limit in the Olympics. Each sport within the Olympics is administered by the sports governing body egg. the cycling is held to UCI rules, swimming to FINA etc.
The only age limits I am sure about is gymnastics, where the competitor must be 16 by the end of the calendar year in which a major event takes place, Fencing is 13 and equestrian is 18.
You should be at least 12 to enter the Olympics.
An athlete must be or turn 16 years old during the olympic year to qualify, although chinease althletes ( some) this year are suspected to be as young as 12. Beijing is thought to be falsifiying their documents to allow 4 young gymnasts to participate.
