hckošice 13,339 Posted July 25, 2018 #5 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Archery: Hopefully Alexandra Longová will make it, she definitely has the capabilities to do it. It would be great to take part in this sport for the second time in a row. 1 Artistic Swimming: Jana Labáthová/Naďa Daabousová were in Rio and I am quite confident they will be in Tokyo as well. 2 Athletics: Hard to predict, but I guess the likes of Matej Tóth 50km RW, Ján Volko 100/200, Mária Czáková RW, Marcel Lomnický HT are the safest athletes + I guess we will somehow manage to qualify few more (M 40m H, HJ, Race Walk, Marathon / W 400m, 800m, 400m H, HT, LJ and TJ) between 14 Badminton: We apparently have some juniors prospects but the level is too far from the required ones of the Olypics 0 Baseball: How is this at the Olympics ? 0 Basketball: pass 0 Beach Volleyball: our best ever pair we had in this sport Nata Dubovcová/Dominika Nestarcová split up after missing to qualify for Rio, so now we are without any chance to mark our debut in this sport under the five rings 0 Boxing: Jessica Triebeľová is our biggest talent we had, still a high school student is our only medal chance for the upcoming Youth Olympics, 3 years undefeated so far, her biggest dream is to qualify for Tokyo, so hopefully she will fulfill her dream, and SVK will finally sign it´s second participation in this sport since Atlanta 1996. Maybe one of the guys will qualify this time too..why not, especially the Europeans Games bronze medalist Viliam Tankó with some luck can do it 2 Canoeing - Slalom: Full team, otherwise Riots 4 Canoeing - Sprint: K4-500m M, K2-1000m should be safe, Ivana Mládková (Kmeťová) in W K1 will qualify as well I guess, maybe few more surprises will be added 8 Cycling - BMX: No way 0 Cycling - Mountain Bike: Hopefully we will qualify at least 1 guy (Martin Haring is our biggest option) but it will be very hard 1 Cycling - Road: I sincerely hope this time we will avoid all bad lucks we had before Rio and qualify at least 3 guys. This is still the only major title Sagan is missing 3 Cycling - Track: Alžbeta Pavlendová is our hope, but again, she had to avoid injuries and have at least a small portion of luck, It was really sad how she missed Rio 1 Diving: Non-existent sport in the country 0 Equestrian: Impossible, too low level 0 Fencing: Zero interest in the country, never heard, saw or read even a single word about it outside the Olympics every 4 years. few athletes competing but only a la Coubertin 0 Field Hockey: No ice, no fun 0 Football: Unfortunately Rio 2016 generation was our brightest chance to qualify for the Olympics first time since Sydney, but a motherfucker son of a bitch referee decided otherwise, so we will have to wait at least another 20 years 0 Golf: Sport still only in it´s beginning here 0 Gymnastics - Artistic: I hope Barbara Mokošová will qualify, she deserve it, this time maybe even a man will accompany her hopefully but chances are much more lower than about Barbora 1 Gymnastics - Rhythmic: our girls are not even able to handle their apparatus for a half of their routine as I saw once in a video in this forum 0 Gymnastics - Trampoline: Non-existent sport in the country (Thankfully) 0 Handball: few years back we were quite good M and few years later W but still far from Olympic chances, now we are so extremely bad in this sport M and W so it´s impossible to even reflect about the Olympics participation even in the future 0 Judo: We are desperately bad in combat sports 0 Karate: Surprisingly we are not so bad in this combat sport lol, 1-2 girls should qualify 2 Modern Pentathlon: once again, Modern Pentawhat ? 0 Rowing: no wildwater ? no upstream gates ? so no quotas then. Easy as that 0 Rugby Sevens: 0 Sailing: we have no sea 0 Shooting: yep, hope not jinx it, but the mixed trap (Zuzana Rehák Štefečeková/Erik Varga or Marián Kovačócy) should be one of our biggest medal chances, Danka Barteková hopefully will qualify in Skeet too, I have hopes in few more quotas in Pistol events 7 Skateboarding: We have one guy from Košice who is really carefully and consistently collecting points, so maybe Richard Tury will be in Tokyo 1 Softball: Seriously, you remove C2 to add this ? this is not a sport... 0 Sport Climbing: Climbing ? yes, we have beautiful and majestic Tatras, I invite you all to visit them 0 Surfing: dude.. 0 Swimming: Richard Nagy, Tomáš Klobučník among mens and few girls like Mišendová, Hájková and especially Podmaníková are our chances to qualify for Tokyo 5 Table Tennis: Barbora Balážová and Wang Yanag or Ľubomír Pištej should hopefully qualify, maybe some our current interesting junior will make it too 3 Taekwondo: even lower chances than Basketball.. 0 Tennis: Cibulková, Rybáriková, Kužmová, Kližan, Lacko, Martin or Gomboš...there a lot of chances to qualify a solid amount of athletes...hopefully no Zika virus will be observed in japan in 2 years... 6 Triathlon: The best swimmer of the triathlon circuit can not be missed. Richard Varga for his 3rd Olympic in a row 1 Volleyball: Far of the required rankings level 0 Water Polo: we always play, we always learn but we always lost 0 Weightlifting: I think we will qualify one guy again, Matej Kováč maybe 1 Wrestling: Honestly I have no idea, we have a armada of former Russians competing for us, time by time some of them even won medals, like at last world champs Boris Makoev silver, so who know maybe he and/or someone else will qualify 1 Total Sports: 19 Optimistic Total Athletes: 64 Realistic Total Athletes: 59 Pessimistic Total Athletes: everything below 50 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With quotas being increased from one to two and Ukraine (probably) not cheating anymore, there will be a room for a Slovakian surprise. Which would be really crazy. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
