Have Senegal struck gold? And money for the workers from where? On the other hand those workers probably won't get paid, so it's possible.

China will most likely build the stadium. They have just built a 20’000 seat Wrestling Stadium in Senegal https://defence.pk/pdf/threads/largest-in-africa-chinese-built-wrestling-stadium-helps-senegal-promote-national-sport.568922/

This is very common across most sporting events in developing countries and often comes with unusual loan structures, for example Angola’s Chinese built stadiums are paid off by oil exports and other smaller stadiums are gifted by the Chinese government. It’s very controversial though!

The award for worst mixed team event (in a very competitive field) surely has to go to the new Mixed Youth Team BMX Race.

Not only is it conducted as 2 individual competitions - 1 for men and women each. The reuslts website doesn't even acknowledge a final combined ranking. And the interaction between team members is non existant, simply win points for a combined team score.

And what has the result been.... it has denied :LAT Latvia and :ECU Ecuador of medals they would have won had it been separate individual events. BMX is already 'youth' and 'exciting' enough without the need for a confusing mixed team event that has resulted in neither of the event winners taking home a gold medal!!!

The start list looks like a regular BMX race start list, no idea what the 'Mixed' is about..

Each nation has entered a man and woman, their position points will be added together to determine the winning overall team. Can't really see the point of it as they are conducting it as 2 separate events but there you go.

Totally agree! Really stupid decision not to send anyone swimming or athletics. We had some amazing young middle distance runners that would have challenged and who all qualified but had their quota declined.

end of super saturday for india .... 8 golds , 5 silver and 4 bronze ........ India a clear third on the medal charts ..a huge 10 golds ahead of SA/CAN... In fact I feel Englands total gets inflated because of 16 extra events in swimming compared to the olympics( a huge 50 events in swimming ) and 10 extra track cycling events ( a ridiculous 20 events in cycling ) ..... and - (6) standard events in Greco roman wrestling and ( -3 ) events in olympic shooting ... if we had played with a standard olymic events in all sports with 2-3 extra events which I would consider normal ... India would have at least 8-9 extra golds and England at least 6-7 less golds which would have made India almost reaching england ....... But I believe we must take the white mans burden .... In the next games They plan to drop shooting altogether and add a a few more non standard events in swimming/ cycling I am sure to ensure they stay ahead ......

Maybe Canada and SA also may catch up........... ( to all the canadians in the forum )

England only won 3 gold medals in track cycling and only 1 gold in a non-Olympic swimming event. If you are talking about the para events in track cycling and swimming then England won 4 gold medals in them but they are a very important part of the event programme now.

uk12points · April 7, 2018

I think tomorrow could be crucial in deciding who tops the medal table, if England have an excellent day in Gymnastics, Cycling, Swimming and Table Tennis then we can close the gap and keep the contest alive. Otherwise if Australia were to win the race walks, further dominate Swimming and Cycling and England were to miss their chances in Gymnastics then the gap may become too large.

Not a clue, there are some funny stories in the teams though!

Imo Fiamalua (Tuvulu's Javelin Thrower) has 4 caps for the National Football Team and scored for the Tuvulu Futsal team at the Oceanian Championships.

Montserrat have even managed to enter 6 athletes into the 4x100m Relay, which means 1 in every 980 people in Montserrat will be competing in their relay team!

uk12points · April 3, 2018

All team sizes added to the first page.

Australia as hosts will have the largest team of 474, with England (396) and Canada (282) rounding out the top 3 largest delegations.

Gambia with 6 athletes has the smallest team as it was only allowed to compete a few days ago, both Tuvalu and Montserrat with 7 athletes each have the other smallest teams. Brunei who only had 1 athlete in 2014, has 10 in 2018 who will all compete in Lawn Bowls.

Why?

There’s a problem in Shooting as Bangladesh were awarded a Boys Air Rifle Tripartite before the Asian Qualifier, but they then qualified a quota in the same event at the Asian Qualifier?

What is the procedure for this, as there is a max of 1 quota per nation for each event?
