Some nice touch from our NOC. Since during this "pandemic" olympics the athletes will not have their families and loved ones with them in Tokyo, our NOC decided to send to everyone of the 41 qualified Slovak athletes 2 bracelets with national motifs (one blue and one red). They have to take with them one to Tokyo and wear it during their competitions and stay in Japan and to give the second one to their most loved one back at home (mom, dad, wife, husband, boy/girlfriend, children or even friend etc..).

 

So they may be connected by a kind of magical bond during their competition even in the distant Japan
