Pictograms for the 2020 Asian Beach Games:

Who ever designed the Beach Woodball pictogram has clearly never watched Woodball (it’s basically Croquet from what I’ve seen). Besides, that the pictograms are pretty generic. The 3D effect is a nice touch. I’m not the biggest fan of the Sport Climbing pictogram either. Surfing needs a better position too.

No, doesn’t seem so. I’m not the biggest fan of the program this year in all honesty.

 

They left out one of the female beach wrestling weight classes. Sports Climbing is only done in the Speed Time Trial format. There’s only 4 events in Ju-Jitsu (just drop it at that point). Dragonboat features a bunch of unusual distances. Sailing has mostly youth-only events, and 3x3 is U23 only. 

 

I do actually like the the program outside of that though, so I’ll still find some events to get invested. Honestly, at this point,  it would just be nice to have a multi-sports games this year.

It’s is interesting that the federation who oversees basically the world’s biggest celebration of colonization, has also been most willing to discuss humans rights issues within it’s member states. There was that big UNICEF drive during the Glasgow 2014 OC, and a emphasis on aboriginal culture throughout Gold Coast 2018 (they also gave aborigines a platform during the games). Maybe the IOC should take a few notes from the CGF’s holding of this “issue.”

Why’d you ask? If it’s because you wanted to see it, I might have some goodies.

ooh, 2022 Euro Champs might not be dead just yet. These a four big pickups ups for the event. Canoe Sprint and Table Tennis have been keys sports to the European Games, so this could be a big loss for the EOC. Of course, sports can probably feature at both events.
