    Per the Olympics website: "In line with the IOC's aim of reaching full gender equality, the number of male and female categories in weightlifting will be exactly the same for each gender: Paris 2024 will host five weight divisions for each." They aren't named like they are in this crossword anymore, but I didn't know that when I made the puzzle!
