AIMAG postponement will probably be a good call in the long run as long as the Games happen in 2023. That way they can avoid having the Asian Games the same year.

Not a good day for this gantole athlete at Indonesian National Games, he landed on someone's house.

 

 

And the paragliding athletes face a bigger threat, the landing area is not far from a crocodile sanctuary

Think of it as a kind of biathlon, gliding & sprinting.  Crucial to nail the transition.

Oh well. Football will played by men only while soccer in women only. Beautiful Jump is an Aquatic sport which looks like Diving. But Dive iS another sport maybe finswimming.Cricket is 6 over a side well.  Baseball will be played by only men but Softball will be played by men and princess. Fighting degree is an interesting sport ! 

 

This is the Tarung Derajat (badly translated as "Fighting degree" by Google), at a glance it's just like taekwondo but without the kick to the head and the referee in this sport always looks like going to join the fight at any time

Tips from Indonesian National Games: If you dislike the judging in a boxing match, let a royal rumble begins

Commonwealth Games have cut down mandatory events from sixteen to two: athletics & swimming. Another sign how this event is basically expendable in modern era. They can always go with "urban" events for kids and e-sports for teenagers?
