Dnl 659 Posted January 12, 2023 Author #61 Share Posted January 12, 2023 (edited) Israel Archery 1- : after a great last Olympics we could have at least one man in, less of a chance for the young talented men's team imo Athletics 11-12- we will have between 5-6Marathon runners + Adva ,selamawit ,Diana in women's track Hannah in women's field Blessing in men's track and Yonatan in men's field anyone else i belive will be a great suprise. Badminton -2 same as last time (i hope at least now they will also compete in XD Basketball - 0-8 the 3x3 men an women are in decent place to qualifiy, can see it happening Boxing - 0-2 i know there are few who try to qualify the young Lia pukkila and pherhaps one guy can Breaking - 0-1 one B-girl or B-boy i think could get in Canoeing - 0 Cycling - 4-6 one man and one woman in road category rotem tene (and maybe Mikhail Iakovlev if everything wil work out) will be debut for us in track, and maybe one man and woman in MB. Equestrian -4-8 the jumping team will most likely qualify again, and i know there is a drassage team who will try too, if not the team i think at least one could get in Fencing -0-16 a real "between 0-all" the teams at the moment looking sharp and they got nice results in foil and epee but we are use to see none over the last games so i think we might see 2 individuals in totals or maybe even a team. Field Hockey -0 Football - 0- men's u21 qualified for the euroes and consisted of some of the u-19 runner-ups so tiny chance probs no Golf -0 Gymnastics - 10-11 the rythmic team already in and i pretty sure we will have 2 individuals too, in addition gold-winner dolgopiyat and another man (medvedev i think) will qualify along with 1 or 2 in women. Handball - 0 Judo - 12-14 muki is a big mystery and the 100k+ is too, other then this we should be could with top judokas all around. Modern Pentathlon - we have Sharon tal in women's MP she is very talented paris is too soon for her imo. Rowing -1-2 Dani friedman and Daniel will try to qualfiy this time. Rugby sevens - 0 Sailing - 6-12 we got into other types of boats and the results are getting better very fast Shooting - 2-3: one man and one women in 10m rifle (m/w/xd) and maybe tal engler in women's 50m 3p. Skateboarding - have no clue. Sport climbing - 0-3 we have Ayala kerem and the boys Surfing - 0-2 Anat Lalior could go for her 2nd games and maybe one guy can too. Swimming - 14-18 : a young bunch of swimmers could join the gang from Tokyo Other Aquatics - 2-20- 2 in artistic duet and maybe the team and maybe maybe the women water polo team that made huge progress over the last 3 years,. Table Tennis - : Taekwondo -1-4 Avishag Semberg should qualify and maybe Nimrod and ori and Dana Azran who won 2nd in last world championships Tennis - 0 Triathlon - 1 Volleyball - 0-2 man beach vollyball can do it. Weightlifting - 1-4 Litvinov and pherhaps Nikol Celia and Nikol's husbend Stanislav. Wrestling - 1-5 we have the Finesilver bro's and maybe suprise in women or men. Total: anything between 71-140is(no chance) in reality between 75-100 and it will be great Edited January 16, 2023 by Dnl rafalgorka and canadafan2024 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeamGB 66 Posted March 19, 2023 #65 Share Posted March 19, 2023 Team Great Britain Early(ish) Qualification Predictions I did this in August last year before any qualification really started, but now we are getting in to qualifying season I'm providing an update on where Great Britain in heading, with more detail in some sports. Archery 3-6 athletes - I still think women's team is virtually guaranteed with the new qualification system of world rankings. For the men it is possible but they will have to qualify through other means. Artistic Swimming 0-2 athletes - Too early to see if there are any changes, a chance of receiving a retrospective European games Duet spot after reallocation of Team Quotas for other nations. Athletics 65 - 75 athletes - The news here is much more negative with British athletics new selection policy. Here is a more detailed breakdown of what I would expect. Women's (32 athletes) 100m and 200m - A full six athletes due to our relay team. With some various members of that team running the individuals 400m and 400m Hurdles - Again, six athletes due to relays. Probably 3 athletes from flat and 3 from hurdles. 800m - 3 athletes: Keely Hodgkinson, Jemma Reekie and Ellie Baker, although one spot could be taken if Laura Muir tries the double. 1500m - 3 athletes: Laura Muir, Adelle Tracey and one other. 5000m and 10000m - 3 athletes: Eilish McColgan and Jessica Judd will qualify for both, with Amy Eloise Markovic for the 5000m 100m Hurdles - Cindy Sember will be the sole representative. 3000m Steeplechase - Elizabeth Bird and Aimee Pratt like in Tokyo. Marathon - 3 Entrants likely with already 2 qualifications High Jump - Morgan Lake should qualify but she is quite inconsistent. Long Jump - Jasmine Sawyers and Lorraine Ugen Triple Jump - 0 athletes Shot Put - 0 athletes Discus Throw - 0 athletes Hammer Throw - 0 athletes Women's Javelin Throw - 0 athletes Heptathlon - 2 athletes - KJT and hopefully Holly Mills 20km Race Walk - 0 athletes Men's (34 athletes) 100m and 200m - A full 6 athletes due to our relay team. Same as women here. 400m and 400m Hurdles - 5 athletes as Charles Dobson runs to 200m. Cameron Chalmers our sole representative in the hurdles. 800m - 3 athletes: Max Burgin, Kyle Langford and Ben Pattison, Jake Wightman might also attempt the double. 1500m - 3 athletes due to such great depth. Jake Wightman and two others. 5000m and 10000m - 4 athletes will qualify across the two disciplines. 110m Hurdles - David King and Maybe Andrew Pozzi. 3000m Steeplechase - Zak Seddon and Phil Norman through world ranking Marathon - 3 athletes should qualify. High Jump - Joel Clarke Khan and Tom Gale by World ranking Long Jump - 0 Athletes Triple Jump - 0 Athletes Shot Put - Scott Lincoln by world rankings Discus throw - Lawrence Okoye. Hammer Throw - Nick Miller by World Rankings Javelin Throw - 0 Athletes Decathlon - 0 Athletes 20km Race Walk - Callum Wilkinson Badminton 3-8 athletes - Kirsty Gilmour in Singles, Ben Lane and Sean Vendy in Men's Doubles are my confidents, Alexander Dunn and Adam Hall are possible, as well as Marcus Ellis and Lauren Smith, and the latter with Chloe Birch. Basketball 0 - 12 athletes - Men are almost impossible, but women have a chance if they find their eurobasket 2019 form. I didn't realise how close they were to qualifying to Tokyo. Boxing 5-9 - Based on European Championships we would have qualified: Kiaran Macdonald (-51kg), Mohammed Akbar (-71kg), and would have been very close for Reese Lynch (-63.5kg), Lewis Williams (-92kg) and Delicious Orie (+92kg). On the women's side, we wouldn't have qualified any athletes but would have been close with Shona Whitwell (-60kg), Rosie Eccles (-66kg). This is of course a very rough estimate as we have other boxers not competing and there are other qualification paths. Breaking 1-3 Athletes - For Men i think we can qualify Kid Kharam and Sunni Brummit, and for the the women I think Emma Houston. Canoe Sprint - 2-5 Athletes - Women's K4 500m have a shout, but the K2 500m should qualify, on the men's side, our best chance is Daniel Johnson in the K1 1000m Slalom - 3-4 - Really should be four with athletes in all categories. Cycling Track - 14 athletes - We are currently comfortably qualifying a full team of 14 riders. The squad I'm most worried about is the men's sprint but it's not a major problem. Road - 5-7 athletes - We are currently qualifying 5 athletes, 2 for women and 3 for men, but we can definitely improve both up a category Mountain bike - 2-4 athletes - We are currently on 3 athletes total, 1 for women and 2 for men, but I think we can gain 4/4 quotas with Evie Richards and Annie Last contenders in the women's. BMX 5-9 athletes - On the men's side we are currently edging Colombia for that 3rd spot on world rankings, on the women's side we only have 1 but 2 is within reach. For Park we could qualify 4/4 but it will be tough with the nature of the Olympic Qualifier Series. Diving 10-12 athletes - Behind China, Great Britain seems to be the "best of the rest and I think we can qualify a full squad like Tokyo, with the athletes being. Men's 3m - Jack Laugher and Jordan Houlden Men's 10m - Tom Daley and Matty Lee Women's 3m - Yasmin Harper and Desharne Bent-Ashmeil. Women's 10m - Andrea Spendolini-Siriex and Lois Toulson. Equestrian 9/9 athletes - Already qualified full quotas. Fencing 1-5 athletes - Carolina Stutchbury is a chance in the Women's Foil, the same with William Deary in the men's Sabre. The men's team foil are ranked 9 in the world and could qualify. Field hockey 16-32 athletes - Both teams are medal hopes and should qualify at the world qualification tournament. Football 0-18 athletes - No chance for the men's team and no official conformation on the women's. The introduction of the nations league qualification system should help. Golf 4-5 athletes - With the qualification system we are almost guaranteed to get 2 golfers per gender, the is a chance, albeit small one, that we can get 3 male golfers. Gymnastics Artistic - 10/10 athletes qualified at the worlds. Rhythmic - 0-1 athletes - Marfa Ekimova may qualify in the all-around. Trampoline - 2-3 athletes - Andrew Stamp for the men and Bryony Page and maybe Isabella Songhurst. Handball 0 athletes - No chance Judo 4-8 athletes - The women's side is very strong with Chelsie Giles (-52kg), Lele Nairne (-57kg), Lucy Renshall (-63kg), Katie Jemima Yeats-Brown (-70kg) and Natalie Powell (-78kg), all qualifying. On the men's side it is a different story with Lachlan Moorhead (-81kg) receiving a continental quota and Jamal Petgrave (-90kg), just sneaking in. Modern Pentathlon 3-4 athletes - I would expect to take a full set of quota places here, especially with Bath hosting the world championships. Rowing 40-48 athletes - We had a great world championships where we would have qualified in every race we entered. I'm expecting the same in 2023 with entrants in every class this time. Rugby seven's 12-24 athletes - On the women's side we are in contention from the world's sevens series, but if we don't then it's likely that spot will go to Ireland and we will claim it at the Europeans. For the men's we need Ireland to qualify from the series so we can get the European Spot. Sailing 12-14 athletes - We should claim quotas in every event but it is really hard to follow sailing so I can't tell what our strength is like right now. Shooting 5-9 athletes - We have already qualified 4 athletes: Amber Hill, Seonaid McIntosh, Nathan Hales, and Lucy Hall. We can definitely qualify Kirsty Hegarty and Aaron Heading in Trap, and Ben Llewellyn in Skeet. There is a chance for Sam William Gowin in Rapid Fire pistol. Skateboarding 2-3 athletes - Lola Tambling and Sky Brown should qualify in Women's Park, we could get someone else from the men's side. Sport Climbing 1-2 athletes - Hamish MacArthur and Max Milne should qualify. Swimming 30- 35 athletes - A mixture of old faces and new ones likely. Men's (16 athletes) 50m Free - Ben Proud and Lewis Burras should qualify 100m Free and 200m Free - Tom Dean , Duncan Scott, Jacob Whittle, James Guy and Matt Richards should qualify for the Relay 400m Free plus - Dan Jarvis and Callum Jervis Should qualify. 100m and 200m Backstroke - Luke Greenbank and Broady Williams 100m and 200m Breaststroke - Adam Peaty and James Wilby, 100m and 200m fly - Jacob Peters and the aforementioned James Guy 200m and 400m IM's - Max Litchfield along with some other already qualified Swimmers Open Water - Hector Pardoe Women's (15 athletes) 50m Free - Anna Hopkin 100m Free and 200m Free - Freya Anderson, Lucy Hope, Abbie Wood, Medi Harris, Tamyrn Van Selm and Holly Hibbot. 400m Free plus - Freya Colbert 100m and 200m Backstroke - Cassie Wild and Kathleen Dawson 100m and 200m Breaststroke - Imogen Clark 100m and 200m Fly - Laura Stevens 200m and 400m IM's - Alicia Wilson and Katie Shanahan Open Water - Alice Dearing Table Tennis 3-5 athletes - Pitchford, Drinkhall and Ho should qualify, a men's team has a chance and maybe Anna Hursey. Taekwondo 5-6 athletes - Women's 57kg, 67kg and +67kg should qualify, same for the men's 68kg and +80kg. Tennis 7-9 athletes - Norrie and Draper in men's singles, Raducanu in Women's and two men's doubles and one mixed doubles pair. Triathlon 5-6 athletes - 4 already qualified with one more women expected, hard but not impossible for the men. Weightlifting 2-4 athletes - Sarah Davies and Cyrille Thatchet have chances but Emily Campbell likely to qualify Totals (Change from previous prediction) Optimistic = 430 (+45) Pessimistic = 291 (+22) Expectation = 375+ (+25) Topicmaster1010, Federer91 and Benolympique 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weightlifting 2-4 athletes - Sarah Davies and Cyrille Thatchet have chances but Emily Campbell likely to qualify Totals (Change from previous prediction) Optimistic = 430 (+45) Pessimistic = 291 (+22) Expectation = 375+ (+25) I agree with most of that/don't know enough at this early stage to form an opinion, however there are a few tweaks I'd like to make to some sports. Athletics - Under this new regime, I don't expect any athletes to get in via world rankings. Reynold Banigo is one to watch for Men's Long Jump, he's in fine form. Football - I think you're unfairly writing off the U21's, they have the quality to get the quota for the men. Shooting - I reckon we can qualify as many as 10, we look in good nick in the rankings in most events. Swimming - We should send a full quota of relays this time round (yes, that includes you Women's 4x200m free relay). Half the women you included in the 100m + 200m free section will only do relays, Hopkin, Hope and Anderson will be the only individual competitors in those events. Holly Hibbott is more of a 400m swimmer than 200m, so she'll go for that and be entered into the 200m relay (met her at a local swimming comp about 5 years ago, lovely person). I can also see Greg Butler qualifying for the men's 200m breastroke. Shame we don't have anyone good in the women's 800m + 1500m free to complete a full set of quotas.

Players have a lot more power these days than they did 11 years, I'm sure a couple from both nations would push to be allowed to play in Paris (especially if neither nation qualifies for the Euros).

Josh 5,665 Posted March 21, 2023 #70 Share Posted March 21, 2023 (edited) Back in August 2022 I made predictions on which events Team Canada would qualify in (Totally unrealistic ), but since Olympic Qualification has really been ramping up recently I’ve decided to do an in-depth updated version. If any of you disagree with any of this, then please reply with changes you would make. Canada (T: 339-372 athletes) Archery (2) - Crispin Duenas hasn’t competed since the Tokyo Olympics. If he’s gonna make a run for Paris (Crazily enough his 5th straight Olympics if he can qualify) then I have him securing a quota, otherwise it’ll probably go to Eric Peters. Stephanie Barrett is a safe bet for a quota on the women’s side. Athletics (64) - Men’s Events (25) 100m - Andre DeGrasse, Aaron Brown, Jerome Blake 200m - Andre DeGrasse, Aaron Brown, Jerome Blake 800m - Marco Arop, Brandon McBride 1500m - William Paulson, Charles Philibert-Thiboutot, Cameron Proceviat 5000m - Justyn Knight, Mo Ahmed, Charles Philibert-Thiboutot 10000m - Mo Ahmed Marathon - Cam Levins, Rory Linkletter, Ben Priesner/Trevor Hofbauer 400m Hurdles - Malik Metivier 3000m Steeplechase - John Gay, Matthew Hughes, Ryan Smeeton High Jump - Django Lovett Hammer Throw - Adam Keenan, Ethan Katzburg, Rowan Hamilton 4x100m Relay - Andre DeGrasse, Aaron Brown, Brendon Rodney, Jerome Blake Decathlon - Pierce LePage, Damian Warner 20km Race Walk - Evan Dunfee Women’s Events (39) 100m - Khamica Bingham, Crystal Emmanuel 200m - Natassha McDonald, Lauren Gale 400m - Natassha McDonald, Kyra Constantine 800m - Lindsay Butterworth, Madeline Kelly, Savannah Sutherland/Jazz Shukla/Melissa Bishop-Nriagu 1500m - Gabriella De-Bues Stafford, Lucia Stafford 5000m - Julie-Ann Staehli, Kate Van Buskirk, Andrea Seccafien 10000m - Andrea Seccafien, Leslie Sexton 100m Hurdles - Michelle Harrison, Mariam Abdul-Rashid 400m Hurdles- Noelle Montcalm, Sage Watson 3000m Steeplechase- Regan Yee, Ceili McCabe, Genevieve Lalonde Marathon- Malindi Elmore, Natascha Wodak, Dayna Pidhoresky Pole Vault- Alysha Newman, Anicka Newell Long Jump- Christabel Nettey Triple Jump- Mikeisha Welcome Shot Put- Sarah Mitton, Brittany Crew Discus Throw- Trinity Tutti Hammer Throw- Camryn Rogers, Jillian Weir Javelin Throw- Elizabeth Gleadle Heptathlon- Georgia Ellenwood/Nicole Ostertag 4x400m Relay- Kyra Constantine, Sage Watson, Natassha McDonald, Aiyanna Stiverne (A few of Madeline Price, Micha Powell, Alicia Brown for heats) Artistic Swimming (8) - Unlike last Olympics I don’t have us securing qualification at the 2023 Pan-Am Games as United States have surpassed us in terms of recent success. Still I think we can qualify at the 2024 World Championships. Badminton (8) - Michelle Li in women’s singles. Brian Yang in men’s singles. Rachel Honderich/Kristen Tsai in women’s doubles. Adam Dong/Nyl Yakura in men’s doubles. Ty Lindeman/Josephine Wu in mixed doubles Given the tough selection criteria, top 16 (singles), top 8 (doubles) the only semi-realistic chance at qualifying a second berth would be Wendy Zhang. Don’t see it happening. Basketball (28) - With Argentina not qualifying for the 2023 FIBA World Cup, its highly likely that we’ll get the second Americas spot (Behind United States) for Paris 2024. Women’s 3x3 team was dominant last year, and is a safe bet to qualify. Our women’s team will probably qualify too. Beach Volleyball (4-6) - Brandie/Melissa and Pavan/Bukovec in the women’s tournament. Maybe Schacter/Dearing through the NORCECA Olympic Qualification Tournament?? It’s all dependant on whether United States qualifies their two pairs through the world rankings. Boxing (5) - Tammara Thibeault- Women’s 75kg Charlie Cavanaugh- Women’s 66kg Priyanka Dhillon- Women’s 50kg Scarlett Delgado- Women’s 54kg Caroline Veyre- Women’s 57kg I’m predicting no male athletes will qualify this time with Keoma-Ali Al-Ahmadieh (Men’s 57kg) and Wyatt Sanford (Men’s 63.5kg) just missing out. Breaking (1-2) - Phil Wizard is of the worlds best b-boys he should qualify. Tiffany Leung also has a chance, but her only chance will be through the Olympic Qualifier Series. Canoe: Sprint/Slalom (16) - Don’t know the boats situation, but I’ll try my best. Women’s Canoe Sprint Events (13) Katie Vincent - C-1 200m / C-2 500m Sophia Jensen - C-1 200m / C-2 500m Toshka Besharah-Hrebacka - K-2 500m / K-4 500m Adreanne Langlois - Women’s K-2 500m / K-4 500m Michelle Russell - Women’s K-1 500m Riley Melanson - Women’s K-4 500m Natalie Davidson - Women’s K-4 500m Nicholas Mateev - Men’s K-4 500m, Men’s K-2 500m Simon McTavish - Men’s K-4 500m, Men’s K-2 500m Pierre-Luc Poulin - Men’s K-4 500m Laurent Lavigne - Men’s K-4 500m Connor Fitzpatrick - Men’s C-1 1000m Roland Varga - Men’s C-1 1000m Canoe Slalom (3) Alex Baldoni - Men’s C-1, Men’s KX-1 Lois Betteridge- Women’s C-1 Florence Mateu - Women’s K-1 Cycling (19) - Track Cycling (15) Kelsey Mitchell- Women’s Sprint, Women’s Keirin, Women’s Team Sprint Lauriane Genest- Women’s Sprint, Women’s Keirin, Women’s Team Sprint Sarah Orban- Women’s Team Sprint Allison Beveridge- Women’s Omnium Maggie Coles-Lyster- Women’s Omnium, Women’s Madison Sarah Van Dam- Women’s Madison Women’s Team Pursuit Dylan Bibic- Men’s Omnium, Men’s Madison Nick Wammes- Men’s Sprint, Men’s Keirin, Men’s Team Sprint Ryan Dodyk- Men’s Sprint, Men’s Team Sprint James Hedgcock- Men’s Keirin, Men’s Team Sprint Mathias Guillemette- Men’s Madison Road Cycling (4) Leah Kirchmann - Women’s Time Trial Alison Jackson - Women’s Road Race/ Women’s Time Trial Michael Woods- Men’s Road Race Hugo Houle- Men’s Road Race/Men’s Time Trial Mountain Biking (2) Carter Woods- Men’s Cross-Country Emily Batty- Women’s Cross-Country BMX Racing (3) James Palmer- Men’s Race Molly Simpson- Women’s Race Drew Mechielsen/Teigen Pascual- Women’s Race BMX Freestyle (1) Maxime Chalifour- Men’s Park Diving (7-8) - Bryden Hattie/Cedric Fofana/Vincent Riendeau- Men’s 3m Springboard Nathan Zsombor-Murray- Men’s 10m Platform, Men’s 10m Syncronized Platform Rylan Wiens- Men’s 10m Platform, Men’s 10m Syncronized Platform Mia Valee- Women’s 3m Springboard, Women’s 10m Syncronized Springboard Margo Erlam- Women’s 3m Springboard (Women’s Syncronized 3m Springboard if Melissa isn’t aiming to make a run for Paris 2024) Melissa Citrini- Women’s Syncronized 3m Springboard (If she’s aiming to make a run for Paris 2024) Caeli McKay- Women’s 10m Platform, Women’s 10m Syncronized Platform Celina Toth- Women’s 10m Platform, Women’s 10m Syncronized Platform Notably, Pamela Ware misses out on qualification. Equestrian (9) - Should qualify a full team (Jumping, Eventing, Dressage) anything less will be a disappointment. Fencing (10) - Eleanor Harvey - Women’s Foil, Women’s Team Foil Jessica Guo - Women’s Foil, Women’s Team Foil Kelliegh Ryan - Women’s Foil, Women’s Team Foil Sabrina Fang - Women’s Team Foil Alexandre Verett/Leonora MacKinnon - Women’s Epee Gabriella Page - Women’s Sabre Maximilien Van Haaster - Men’s Foil, Men’s Team Foil Blake Brozus - Men’s Foil, Men’s Team Foil Eli Schenkel - Men’s Foil, Men’s Team Foil Fares Arfa - Men’s Sabre Football (18) - All we have to do is beat Jamaica in a two legged playoff series and our women’s team is off to Paris. Should be doable. Men’s team has no chance, due to them blowing their only chance at the CONCACAF U20 Championships. Golf (4) - Brooke Henderson - Women’s Stroke Play Alena Sharp - Women’s Stroke Play Adam Svensson - Men’s Stroke Play Correy Conners - Men’s Stroke Play Artistic Gymnastics (14) - Women’s Team already secured qualification by virtue of their 3rd place finish at the 2022 Worlds. Men’s Team (Although not qualified yet) had a brilliant result last year, and could possibly qualify Artistic Gymnastics (11) Women’s Team- Ellie Black, Shallon Olsen, Emma Spence, Sydney Turner Ellie Black - Women’s Balance Beam, Women’s All-Around Brooklyn Moors - Women’s All Around, Women’s Floor Shallon Olsen - Women’s Vault Laurie Denoumee - Women’s Vault Denelle Pendrick misses out on qualification. Men’s Team - Felix Dolci, William Emard, Rene Cournoyer, Chris Kaji, Jason Rampersad. Idk I don’t follow Gymnastics very much Trampoline Gymnastics (3) Jermey Chartier - Men’s Event Sophiane Methot - Women’s Event Samantha Smith - Women’s Event Judo (7) - Kelly Deguchi - Women’s -52kg Jessica Klimkait - Women’s -57kg, Team Event Catherine Beauchemin-Pinard - Women’s -63kg, Team Event Coralie Godbout - Team Event Arthur Margelidon - Men’s -73kg, Team Event Francois Gauthier-Drapeau - Men’s -81kg, Team Event Kyle Reyes - Men’s -100kg, Team Event Notably, Christa Deguchi and Shady El Nahas miss out. Rowing (25-30) - Don’t know anything about the boating situation for Team Canada, so I’ll just use numbers from Tokyo/Rio and the recent WCHs to do my predictions. We should qualify a fair few amount of athletes here. Rugby 7s (13-26) - Considering United States is pretty much almost qualified through the World Series, nothing is stopping our women’s team from securing a quota at the RAN 7s Qualification Tournament, especially since we’re hosting it. United States has to qualify for Paris 2024 through the World Series for us to have a chance, if they can do it then we’ll probably secure a quota, otherwise probably not. Sailing (6) - Sarah Douglas - Women’s Dinghy Georgia Lewin-Lafrance - Women’s Skiff Fillah Karim - Men’s Dinghy Arie Mofatt - Men’s Skiff Nataliya Leshko - Women’s Kite Tom Ramshaw - Men’s Dinghy Shooting (1-2) - We usually qualify a couple of athletes here, just don’t know who. Skateboarding (5) - Ryan Decenzo, Matt Berger and Micky Papa - Men’s Street Andy Anderson - Men’s Park Fay Ebert - Women’s Park Sport Climbing (2) - Alannah Yip - Women’s Combined Sean McColl - Men’s Combined Ethan Pitcher just misses out on Olympic Qualification. Surfing (2) - Casually optimistic that we can qualify two of the following female athletes (Erin Brooks, Mathea Olin, Sanoa Olin) Swimming (28) - Men (6) Hau-Li Fan - 10km Open Water Finlay Knox - 200m IM Josh Liendo - 50m Freestyle, 100m Freestyle, 100m Butterfly Ilya Kharun - 100m Butterfly, 200m Butterfly Javier Acevado - 100m Backstroke Gabe Mastromatteo - 100m Breastroke 4x100m Freestyle Relay 4x100m Medley Relay Women (14) Kylie Masse - 100m Backstroke, 200m Backstroke Maggie MacNeil - 100m Butterfly Penny Oleksiak - 100m Freestyle, 200m Freestyle Summer McIntosh - 200m Freestyle, 400m Freestyle, 200 IM, 400 IM, 200 Butterfly Mary Sophie-Harvey - 200m IM Katerine Savard - 100m Butterfly Kelsey Wog - 100m Breastroke, 200m Breastroke Taylor Ruck - 100m Freestyle, 200m Backstroke Ingrid Wilm - 100m Backstroke Tessa Cieplucha - 400m IM Ella Jansen - 400m Freestyle Katrina Bellio - 1500m Freestyle Sydney Pickrem - 200m Breastroke Sophie Angus - 100m Breastroke 4x100m Freestyle Relay 4x200m Freestyle Relay 4x100m Medley Relay Additional Relay Athletes: Rebecca Smith, Rachel Nicol, Yuri Kisil, Ruslan Gasiev, Markus Thornmeyer, Jermey Bagshaw, Stephen Calkins, James Dergousoff. Notably, IM specialist Bailey Andison misses out on Olympic qualification. Table Tennis (2) - Eugene Wang - Men’s Singles Mo Zhang - Women’s Singles Taekwondo (6) Skylar Park - Women’s -57kg Ashley Kraayeveld - Women’s -67kg Nicholas Hoefling - Men’s -58kg Marc Andre Bergeron - Men’s +80kg Jordan Stewart - Men’s -80kg Yvette Hui Hai Yong - Women’s -49kg Tennis (8) - Felix Auger-Aliassime - Men’s Singles, Mixed Doubles Denis Shapovalov - Men’s Singles, Men’s Doubles Leylah Fernandez - Women’s Singles Bianca Andresscu - Women’s Singles Rebecca Marino - Women’s Singles Vasek Pospisil - Men’s Doubles Sharon Fichman - Women’s Doubles Gabriela Dabrowski - Women’s Doubles, Mixed Doubles Triathlon (4) Amelie Kretz - Women’s Event, Team Event Emy Legault - Women’s Event, Team Event Tyler Mislawchuk - Men’s Event, Team Event Charles Paquet - Men’s Event, Team Event Waterpolo (12) - Women’s Team assuming United States qualifies through the World Championships. Weightlifting (2) - Maude Charron - Women’s 59kg Boady Santavy - Men’s 102kg Wrestling (7) - Ericka Weibe - Women’s 76kg Linda Morais - Women’s 68kg Ana Godinez - Women’s 62kg Madison Parks - Women’s 50kg Karla Godinez - Women’s 57kg Amar Dhesi - Men’s 125kg Lachlan McNeil - Men’s 65kg Justina Di Stasio, Olivia Di Bacco and Diana Wiecker all miss out due to stacked weightclasses. Rythmic Gymnastics, Modern Pentathlon, Handball are highly unlikely for Canada to qualify in. Field Hockey teams have been on a decline lately, but qualification is possible. Maybe we’ll qualify, maybe we won’t. Despite the brilliant performance of our women’s volleyball team at the 2022 Worlds, I have them JUST missing out. I think our men’s volleyball team is on a decline, and won’t back up their Tokyo 2020 qualification. If anyone can help think of shooting/rowing athletes/boats qualified. I have no clue lol. Maybe I made these predictions too optimistic Edited March 22, 2023 by Josh canadafan2024, Topicmaster1010 and CCB 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
