only South Africa,Egypt and Morocco in men's race and ONLY South Africa will participate in women's race in African championship. So,South Africa will refuse quota or not?

 

South Africa's selection document in triathlon once again clearly states that "continental quotas will not be considered". But there will be no reallocation within this event. If South Africa refuses than the quotas will go to best African nation in rankings.

    • and of course we can still go for some more shopping in the AHL and the main European Leagues (where a few good players with Italian heritage play)...
    • looking at Today's NHL Rosters, this is a list of player that surely would be eligible to play for  (even if many of them have already played at the World Champs/Olympics for  /  in the past, sometime recent past)   Forwards   Adam Fantilli (Columbus) Kyle Palmieri (NY Islanders) Noel Acciari (Pittsburgh) Philip Tomasino (Pittsburgh) Andrew Mangiapane (Washington) Sonny Milano (Washington) Joe Veleno (Detroit) Michael Pezzetta (Montreal) Michael Amadio (Ottawa) Anthony Cirelli (Tampa Bay) Max Domi (Toronto) Max Pacioretty (Toronto) Tyler Bertuzzi (Chicago) Ryan Donato (Chicago) Nick Foligno (Chicago) Matt Boldy (Minnesota) Marcus Foligno (Minnesota) Luke Evangelista (Nashville) Michael Carcone (Utah) Matias Maccelli (Utah) Alex Iafallo (Winnipeg) Cole Perfetti (Winnipeg) Gabriel Vilardi (Winnipeg) Robby Fabbri (Anaheim) Frank Vatrano (Anaheim) Troy Terry (Anaheim) ??? Matt Coronato (Calgary) Anthony Mantha (Calgary) Macklin Celebrini (San Josè) Ty Dellandrea (San Josè) Tyler Toffoli (San Josè)   D-Men   Dante Fabbro (Columbus) Brett Pesce (New Jersey) Victor Mancini (NY Rangers) Brandon Carlo (Boston) Ben Chiarot (Detroit) Steven Santini (Tampa Bay) Mathew Dumba (Dallas) Nick Leddy (St.Louis) Robert Bortuzzo (Utah) Sean Durzi (Utah) Alec Regula (Edmonton) Cody Ceci (San Josè) Mario Ferraro (San Josè) Alex Pietrangelo (Las Vegas)   Goalies   Drew Commesso (Chicago) Joel Hofer (St.Louis) ???   but I'm pretty sure that there are a few more with Italian heritage coming from their moms and/or wives (Canadiens' Josh Anderson, for instance)...
    • Day 6 Results - 12.12.2024   Play-Offs Quarterfinals   -   5-2 -   9-1    9-12th Place Semifinals   -   3-6 -   2-10   13th Place Match   -   6-4   15th Place Match   -   6-9
    • Your telling me there isn't a single track in Europe that could cover.
    • Surely they'll find a few boys with more famous names whose grandma had one of her parents somewhere in Italy
    • Michael Del Zotto? Though it looks like he's in the AHL now...
    • it's about 2 main factors: first, the pool's size and shape (depth, width and also the gradient of the pool's sides -if the walls are perfectly vertical or not), which has an influence on the water mass movement following the swimmers' action (the more the walls can absorb the waves made by the swimmers, the faster they can go; meanwhile, the bigger the waves are, the more they slow the swimmers down); second, water hardness might also be a factor (less than the pool's technical features, but still) as in different Countries there might be different habits (if not laws) about the sanification of the water itself (for instance, here in Italy we use to put a lot of chlore in pools' water, more than in many other places)   environmental and water's temperature can also have an impact, but in the indoor events I think there's no big difference between places (and the water's temperature is standardized by FINA for sure)   altitude might also be a factor (as it is for all the aerobic efforts), but normally there are no swimming big events in high places, so it's more a chance than a real thing since the 1968 Olympics and the 1975 Worlds (which were held in  Cali)
