Summer Olympic Games Paris 2024 Qualification Systems

I never understand why do we need 40 people for each of the laser events when at best 12 are competitive.

 

IOC could easily shave 20 (10 & 10) quotas there and use them for other sports or just save to keep the overall games athlete quota within the desired margins.

To have a proper race? I assume you haven't watched much of Laser, but there are races when people in medal positions suddenly find themselves at the bottom of the 40 crews. Then the drama starts as every position can start to count. Happens every Olympics.

 

Besides, it's the most widespread class.

Windsurf is the same but they have like 15 less people. Don't see why laser should be different but even then just a little cut compared to them would be good IMO.

  

Of course it doesn't have to be the small nations/universality getting cut, just the middle pack that always qualify but never do anything (would include us for example).

So i guess nothing changed for the continental spots? You can still earn them for free?

 

Man, sailing is really pushing it. They are the first federation with universality qualifier + universality invitations, and of course the useless continental spots. No wonder the federation is on the edge of bankruptcy.

 

Yeah, they need to follow canoeing and have a rule where at least 2 or 3 nations have to compete for the quota to be valid.

 

I do like the emerging nations quotas, it helps nations which are good in other sports, but developing in the sport in question. I always found it unfair for nations like Ethiopia and Jamaica where they are quite weak in almost all sports, but because of athletics they are not eligible for tripartite quotas.

Canoe Sprint Document is back with some changes in the number of quotas per event

 

this is fantastic to publish something and changing it after less than a day ! :facepalm: looks like Mr Bach is busy saving the world and forget to hire qualified people to do simple jobs like this.

They have also changed the Davis Cup/Billie Jean Cup requirements, now they only need to participate twice (or have a good reason why not) to be eligible.

 

Also no European/Oceania quota (one went to the host and the other went to the Grand Slam/Olympic medalist quota).

 

Also for the remaining continental quotas the ranking limit has been increased to 400 (was 300 for 2020).

    • She's quite well-known in the world of alpine skiing, and besides, she's had several serious injuries and always returned to a high level. Now, for me, she has a chance to win a medal in the giant slalom on OG.

    • Here you have statesmen and old leaders that's why we were the leaders back then, and the USSR fell apart.   And who said I support Trump? I have never even been in USA in my life... Personally, I think he's a clown, but he unfortunately show the decline of our entire Western World- of which the USA was a leader for a long time.    
    • Latvia seriously attacking the anti-record in WJCh history with the fewest shots on goal in a game    4 SOG after 48 minutes is really quite atrocious stat  
    • My personal favorite in Canadian athlete is Valerie Grenier. She's so likeable and sweet
    • Canada had a great home-boost in 2010. Unfortunately, that's not the case in us – look at 2006... We won fewer medals in Torino 2006 than in 2002 (11 vs. 13)
    • Short-track is unpredictable and ridden by bullshit refs who give out weird penalties and home-advantage calls to favour the home athletes. Women’s hockey, we aren’t beating the US this time around, the rivalry series went horribly and I’d be happy if we can hang on to silver. It was that bad.    Freestyle skiing team, a lot of them have been getting injured our ski cross contenders (Hoffos, who was in the best form of her career, Sherret), Kingsbury, Oldham... Then you have Blouin, and reigning World Champion Liam Brearley in snowboarding, 2024 world champion in skeleton Hallie Clarke, and 2023 world champion in ski jumping Alexandria Loutitt who are all out injured for the season.   I don’t think you have anything to worry about, Italy will have a nice home boost and win 5-6 golds, but yeah that would’ve been pretty bad for us even before our entire team getting injured. I still view it as a disappointment either way. 
    • Do you have short track, freestyle, snowboardcross, hockey x2? You'll definitely win 5-6 gold medals. If you want, I'll gladly sign now for Italy to win 5-6 gold medals in February... Canada has at least 3 girls competing for medals in the long distances, and we only have 1 Lollobirigida- also quite old.
    • team is seriously in shambles and I wouldn’t be surprised if we only win a few bronzes or slightly better at Milano-Cortina…   Our men are nonexistent, Dubreuil still is awful coming back from injury and nowhere near his 2021-22 form, he’d be lucky to get a top 16 finish. Jan-Bloemen is old and his 5,000m WC podium was a fluke, at best it’ll be a top 8 finish in each event. For the women, Weidemann won’t beat Groenewoud/Wiklund in the 5km/10km and Blondin with Groenewoud (probably, she beats her all the time) or Mangianello in the mass start, and Maltais can only aim for a minor medal at best. We don’t even have our team pursuit anymore, used to be by far the best and now we’re getting beaten by Netherlands/Japan…
