Africa needs boosting in how to use technology, till now all federation websites are very old, some of them last updated 2011!! ..as an example sometimes I got the information about waterpolo from local football journal in Ghana

How is the Diving qualification going to manage to stay at the quota of 136?

 

Synchronised Competitions            64

Continental Quotas                          20

2023 Worlds                                     48

2024 Worlds                                     48

 

Thats 180 quotas. Obviously Countries like Japan, GB, Mexico will be doubling in spots but that will hardly bring the figure from 180 to 136. Will that mean the 2024 Worlds might only have 4 or 5 nquotas available instead of 12? Its a bit unfair on athletes who finish in top 12 in quota but may not make Paris.

I wouldn't be unduly concerned - in the previous qualification cycles, there have always been at lest 10 quotas available after the first world and continental qualifiers. 

 

There's a good chance that the majority of the continental quotas won't end up being awarded because the continental champion will already have qualified here at Fukuoka and if Wikipedia is to be believed at Tokyo, there were only meant to be 136 quotas but 147 were awarded.

While in theory we could have 180 athletes in practice it will be a lot less. From experience at least half of the synchronized divers will compete in the individual events. Also the 12 quotas at the 2024 Worlds are only awarded to the finalists so nations with already the max quotas (e.g. China) or if the individual already qualified at the 2023 Worlds/Continental Qualifier will not gain any more quotas.

 

In fact, we will have to go through the "additional divers" route in order to complete the list.

So I was going through the swimming qualification events when I noticed a few unusual entries.

 

An African Diving qualifier from December 18-20 in  Durban.

 

An Oceanian Diving qualifier from November 30-December 1 in  Brisbane.

 

Not sure how accurate these are.
