Open Water Swimming LEN French Cup 2019 (Mâcon)

4 years today from the beginning of the full scale invasion. Almost 12 years of the war.   So many good people died due to the ill ambitions of putin and russian society

Hi everyone, with most of the sports' qualification documents released I did my own qualification simulation for all events including Tripartite places based on latest rankings followed by respective World Championships. For the simulation Russian and Belarusian athletes have been considered. Please note Swimming quotas are based on 2025 results. Even though Athletics qualification hasn't been released I assumed it to be same as 2024. Universality places for Athletics and Swimming are indicative only to ensure 1 athlete per gender qualify in the sport. Here is the sheet.  

And time to start discussing the Paralympic Broadcast Coverage.   Here in  it is Channel 4 as ever.  The live shows in the morning tend to be rather more blethering and soap opera than actual action.   ParalympicsGB | How to watch the milano cortina 2026 winter paralympics   But the YouTube Channel has all the actual sport.  This is not usually geoblocked.   Channel 4 Sport - YouTube   And I suppose for countries which do not have their own channels covering it, you can watch on Eurovision Sport.   Milano Cortina 2026 Paralympic Winter Games | Eurovision Sport

After the Dutch team won 23 out of a possible 32 Speed skating medals in 2014, some changes were made. In the 500, 1000 and 1500 metres the maximum number of skaters per country was reduced from 4 to 3, and in the 10 km from 3 to 2. Also the quotum was lowered from 10 to 9.   In the past the maximum number of swimmers per event per country was 3. This led on too many occasions to countries sweeping the podium.
