There's no Emerging Nations Programe outside of IQFoil and ILCA, so I asume it's 5 up for grabs.

I do found it, from World Sailing website

Competition for those final spots across the 10 Olympic disciplines is bound to be fierce at the Semaine Olympique Française where there will be – in effect – two separate regattas across the same week, with the Qualified Nations sailing out of Hyères harbour, with two participants for each nation and class.  

 

However, for once it’s not the front of the world fleet who are the focus of attention, as the biggest drama will be taking place in the battle for those final spots in the Last Chance Regatta. 

 

Seven in the Men’s and eight in the Women’s Windsurfing are available in the iQFOiL, and five for Men’s and Women’s Kite, with four in the 470 for the Mixed Dinghy, and four in each of the Men’s Dinghy in the ILCA 7 and Women’s Dinghy in the ILCA 6, four 49ers in the Men’s Skiff and five 49erFXs in the Women’s Skiff and the four Nacra 17 Mixed Multihull. 

 foil teams for Paris are officialy announced:

Women's

Julia Walczyk-Klimaszyk
Hanna Łyczbińska 

Martyna Jelińska 
Martyna Synoradzka (reserved)

Men's

Jan Jurkiewicz
Adrian Wojtkowiak
Michał Siess
Andrzej Rządkowski/Leszek Rajski (reserved - yet to be selected of one of those two)

Full women's epee team should be announced tomorrow. For now only Renata Knapik-Miazga and Alicja Klasik are sure to be selected as medalists of recent national championships.

Go Iraq! Let qualify to Paris! 

Iraq football team is in the same position like  South Sudan basketball team for which I cheer the most, of course not counting Polish teams  

How many quotas are awarded in womens 49er FX, 3 or 5? Our sailing federation says that its 3 and unused Oceanian and African quotas will be awarded to emerging nations, its true?

Womens Groups in Final Olympic Qualifier

Lets say if for example Japan is 1st and 7th then both Japenese duets qualify or the second one needs to be in top5 too?

I'm not sure where I should post it, so, I will do here 

Our NOC presented a very good looking promotional video of Olympic Games with using AI, where everything looks so real, imo it's worth to watch.

To watch it you need to click link below, as recently I can't added in normal way posts from instagram

@Josh No, Natalia and Łukasz arent related. Kaczmarek is common surname in Poland, Łukasz has a wife Dominika and have two daughters, while Natalia is engaged with shot putter Konrad Bukowiecki.

 medalists according Gracenote:

Gold:

Women's K4 500m in sprint canoeing, Wojciech Nowicki (athletics - men;s hammer throw), Aleksandra Mirosław (sport climbing - women's speed), Men's team in indoor volleyball

Silver:

Iga Świątek (tennis - women's singles), Paweł Fajdek (athletics - men's hammer throw - for me it's wishful thinking ), Katarzyna Wasick (swimming - women's 50m freestyle - even more wishful thinking ), Karolina Naja/Anna Puławska (Women's K2 500 in sprint canoeing), men's quadruple sculls in rowing

Bronze:

Natalia Kaczmarek (athletics - women's 400m), women's team epée in fencing

team. As expected we are sending best possible team, besides those athletes who are injured (Anna Kiełbasińska, Dariusz Kowaluk and Dominik Kopeć), not yet ready after pregnancy (Małgorzata Hołub-Kowalik) or Pia Skrzyrzowska who is focused on individual races on hurdles. I would want to see all 5 relays to be qualified, but 3 are most realistic, I wont be surprised if it will be even less after last week failures everywhere....

Its still somehow possible that we will have two quotas in mens individual sprint or its wishfull thinking?

Technically, Poland still has a chance. Don't lose hope.

Canada wins in photo finish!!!

Congrats for quota.

Win for Bibic now, women's team sprint quota for Canada, it will complete perfect day for them with men's team sprint quota now? Let see.......

Mexico beats France, Poland beats Germany in women's first round races, surprises, I'm hoping that surprises (positive for us) will happen in men's event too.

Tension is rising in Middle East, according rumors huge attack on Israel from Iran will start in hours, I'm hoping that it won't too big as it's expected and all @Dnl @MHSN and other Israeli and Iranian users and citizines will be safe.

Its reported that our pairs which will fight for two quotas are Dawid Tomala/Katarzyna Zdziebło and Maher Ben Hlima/Olga Chojecka.

Good bye Olympics... However both Czechia and Canada arent favourites against GB and France either, I think..

How match ups are determined? 1st with 8th, 2nd with 7th and so on, or maybe different?

Canada have bigger chance for Paris than us, at least for now.
