 San Salvador &  Mayagüez are the two bids for the 2022 Central American & Caribbean Games

Personally I’d love to see either  or  host it, as rhe Salvadorean government is currently a parasite of Mexican government funds and Puerto Rico plan to seek for alternate hosta for a number of sports.

Well, DOM already committed to hosting in 2026, and didn’t feel comfortable hosting in 2022. I have no clue why Colombia hasn’t submitted a replacement candidate. This was perfect for them.

 

San Salvador keeps going for multi-sports games, but I don’t think they’re in a position to host either. At least Mayaguez hosted in 2010, so they hopeful have much of the infrastructure needed. They will definitely have to find some partners to help them. Let time I think Mexico, Colombia, and Guyana all hosted event along with them.

 

Neither of these bids are ideal, but I think the CAC Games are in a tough spot right now.

I was reading through the Winter version on the Olympic World Library last week. It’s fairly comprehensive, and quite interesting in my opinion.

Yet another postponement to 2022. https://www.insidethegames.biz/articles/1101076/caribbean-games-postponed-to-2022

I think it’s fair to say Ski Orienteering was a hit at 2019 Winter Universaide. The sport got added to the 2021 Winter Universaide after the Games, and now it’s been made a compulsory sport by the FISU starting at the 2027 Winter Universaide.

Interestingly, the IOC rejected its inclusion in the Winter Olympic program back in 2006 (along with Ski Mountaineering and Winter Triathlon). I think it might be time for the IOC to consider SkiO and SkiMo for inclusion once more...

Ready to head for Brno, but who knows, where will we be in 2025. A year ago we were just half a year to Tokyo 2020. And we still are.

Sports/Events Program for the 2021 Asian Indoor and Martial Arts Games: https://www.sat.or.th/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Event.pdf

 

It’s weird collection of sports and events as always. There’s some weird omissions of events, which leads me to believe Thailand has designed a program that favors them (not unlike Turkmenistan did).
