Central American and Caribbean Games 2023


Recommended Posts

I would have thought that El Salvador:ESA would be doing a little better than 9 medals total at this point. with the advantage to have athletes in almost all sports and being local, at least 20 bronce and silver. Maybe this second week they will do better, with sailing, athletics, karate, TKD, archery and badminton.

 

That gold medal in Double Bowling men was for :GUA, the mexicans at last minute claim it, sooo close.  I think :GUA will end with only 12 or so gold medals, about half from last edition, a change in the athletes generation, very young people, doing good so far.

:VEN :DOM :MEX and :CUB all qualify in baseball, the 4 countries with the largest team sizes in Lima :(

 

No :NCA looks likely they will have the biggest regression in team size from Lima.

 

No :PUR as well, meaning the last gold and silver medalists from 2011, 2015 and 2019 will not compete!!

 

Recent press releases say top 4 qualify here, but earlier it said top 3, so not entirely sure this is accurate

Expand  

Baseball is probably one of the toughest sports to qualify in at the Pan American Games, especially when you include a host who doesn't care about the sport and force in a South American representative that's not Colombia/Venezuela.

 

Honestly you could expand it to 12 teams and still have a high quality tournament. The issue of course is hosts don't want to accommodate 100 more athletes for a single event plus you can't exactly justify 12 teams in women's softball.

It’s raining pretty steady at the velodrome from the looks of things. I’m not sure there will be any track cycling finals tonight :(

:MEX swept racquetball. It’s the second sport they’ve swept at the Games.

Chevrier :LCA snagged the bronze medal in men’s laser. I guess those universality quotas for the Olympics are starting to have an impact on the program :d


Lettsome :IVB won the battle for the Pan American Games quota. He becomes his country’s first athlete qualified for the Games.

Baseball final between Cuba and Mexico has been cancelled. Will the two teams be sharing the gold medal?

 

Edit: Gold medal went to Mexico on account of its win over Cuba earlier in the tournament

    • is having its general election today.   In a big turnaround, the Liberals lead by Mark Carney are now ahead in the polls, after having been over 20 points behind as recently as December. This is mostly credited to the resignation of Justin Trudeau and America's on and off trade war, along with comments Donald Trump made about Canada becoming the 51st state.   While the Liberals are favoured to win a fourth consecutive election, there is a lot of uncertainty around whether it will be a majority or a minority government. There is also an outside chance of the Conservatives, lead by Piere Poilievre, will form a minority government.
    • Ukraine has made progress recently and lost yesterday on penalties to the UK, but that still doesn't explain why the Italian team isn't making any progress. We are sitting in a lower division for 3 years and that's with a ban for Rus and Blr. New and great coaches are being brought in and it's not giving any results. 8-10 years ago we were regularly playing in the highest division, every 2 years and that was with a much stronger teams (Russia and Belarus were there). I don't know where the problem is.

    • Many things, probably they thought it is already over and the win will come itself... but also Nitra improved their play a lot, they outplayed us in physicality in the last 2 games, they won almost every duel. Was hard to watch. Anyway I am still persuated we will finish the job at home with success on Tuesday
    • If you look at their results this season and on the Super Series, it’s not really that surprising.    I’d consider them to be medal contenders. 
    • At one point it seemed we were making good progress in this sport, but in the past 1-2 years things seem to have hit a standstill..   Ivaylo Ivanov is still our only elite judoka, but he is passing 30. There were/are some promising youngsters, but they haven't been able to make a jump to the senior level. At this Euro we barely had any first round wins (not including Ivanov). In fencing and taekwondo the results are much more visible for us. 
    • yes, but that's only an (important) episode... I mean, what's up with your team more in general...it looks like they got the classic "fear to win", they're not as brilliant as they were in the early games of the series
