Lacrosse
This is a new sport. Here's how the quota breakdown looks like.
Host Nation - 1
World Championships - 4
Final Qualifying Tournament - 1
The host nation must participate at the Continental Championships and World Championships in order to get the quota. This will satisfy the continental representation. Additionally only a maximum of 3 nations from a single continent can qualify.
The World Championships will be awarded in such a way that all four continental federations are represented (Africa, Asia-Pacific, Europe and Pan America if the United States doesn't get the host nation quota), but only if the team finished in the top 12. Any remaining quotas will be allocated to the highest ranked nation.
The Final Qualifying Tournament will consist of the top six nations at the World Championships which failed to qualify (provided no continent qualified three nations already).
I love the judo qualification system, for me is the best in all disciplines.
It combines a strong circuit, and it allows 100 or so countries to participate in.
So, maybe, if UWW does its job properly, it will be a good thing.
China Media Group (CMG) will broadcast all 116 gold medal events of the Milan Winter Olympics live on CCTV-1, CCTV-5, CCTV-5+ and CCTV-16. It will also use technologies such as 4K/8K ultra-high definition to enhance the viewing experience. Live broadcasts of all events will be carried out from 16:00 Beijing time to 06:00 the next day.
The strength of the UK is that they are 100% focused on the track, while Italy must to navigate between the track and the road: the line-up is different for practically every event, etc. Paternoster should focus 100% on the track; she won't win anything big on the road anymore. As it is, she's weak both there and there. The situation is different with Balsamo, as she's also having significant success on the road and likely earns the most money there.
