The London Olympic Program
Officially, there are 26 medal sports on the Olympic program for the 2012 London Games, with 39 associated disciplines. NBCOlympics.com considers certain "disciplines" to be "sports," such as diving and swimming (instead of combining them under Aquatics as the IOC does), and thus presents a total of 32 different sports.
Following the 2008 Beijing Games, two sports -- softball and baseball -- were cut from the Olympic program. No sports have been added for London, but the total number of medal events remains 302. Notable new events include women's boxing (three weight classes), mixed doubles in tennis and Omnium racing in track cycling.
