@vinipereira May I ask about these sub threads for the Pan Am Games? I would prefer to just talk about the event in this the thread. I don’t know if that’s the opinion of other users. I understand that you guys do that so the thread doesn’t get super long, but I’m ok with it being long. I like to back through a read the threads after the games and it would easier to do that if it was all in one place. Plus, I just makes it me convenient (at least for) to talk about it in one thread. The other threads just seem unneeded to me, but maybe you can provide me with information that states otherwise?

We're opening threads for the sports that are Olympic qualifiers (direct quotas), plus Athletics, Gymnastics and Swimming.

 

I think it's better to discuss some of the sports (at least the big ones) in their threads, and that has been a request from some users in past events.

Alright the top part makes sense to me, and I accept the bottom part. At least there’s a method to this madness then...

Excellent plan. I'd like to read about athletics and swimming, but don't feel like having to work through pages and pages filled with sports I (in this case) don't much care about in order to do so :p

I think that, given certain conditions, Mexico has a chance to make it to semis this time.

Not sure, but I'd imagine that would be the case. As you may know Pan Am Cycling is horrible with this kind of information.

    • Amundsen sick and Will not continue the tour
    • They've been recognised by the IOC since 1995.
    • It’s also interesting, and I only noticed it a few minutes ago, that World Netball has made it on to the list of International Sports Federations Recognised by the International Olympic Committee.   That’s an important and essential step if you want your sport to be considered for inclusion at the Olympic Games. It means the IOC is happy with things like your governance amd development of the sport.   It may or not be at 2032, but I’ve gotta say Netball are on the road to play a future Olympic Games. 
    • Jan Zachara (96) The oldest living Slovak olympic champion. Helsinki 52 Boxing.   RIP  
    • It was more than just “draw a circle on a map”.     They had to put a detailed submission in to the Olympic Programme Commission and then have meetings with them to put the case forward for inclusion.   World Lacrosse are also on the list of IOC-recognised international sporting federations, just like Squash and Flag Football which were also added to the LA2028 Olympic Games, along with Baseball/Softball.  They all put detailed submissions in.   Here is the link: International Sporting Federations Recognised by the International Olympic Committee (IOC).   So why is Rugby League not on that list?     Why is Rugby League not even recognised by the IOC?   It’s not going to be gifted to them.   Rugby League has got a lot of hard work to even be recognised because they are not even listed as an IOC-recognised international sporting federation.     If you’re not on that list, you don’t get to have your sport play at the Olympic Games   For info, the international governing body for rugby league is the International Rugby League.    Has the International Rugby League even contacted the IOC and/or put together a submission to have the sport included at the Olympics?   I don’t know if they have or not.     
    • I wouldn't say there's no chance at all but if World Netball had better leadership they'd be in a much better position than they currently are.
    • Men have only been included in the FAST5 Netball World Series since 2022 and only because they're desperate to get into the Olympics so they've belatedly started building the men's international game.   Not so long ago in 2018 the World Netball outrageously declared that international netball will remain female only bucking the trend of all the other sports federations moving towards gender equality.   Imagine if they hadn't spent decades sabotaging the growth of the men's game in order to keep it "female only"? They'd have been in a much better position to bid for inclusion in the Olympics at least for 2032.
