heywoodu 13,609 Posted December 13, 2019 #221 Share Posted December 13, 2019 Only five are going though, as @brunamoura mentioned a few days ago, Jonte Treasure broke his hand in a fall on a slippery floor in Livigno last weekend and is back in Australia after surgery. If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

That is right, I forgot that. I still like the fact that they are willing to commit money to the future of the sport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technically they could still send him. If they’d already paid for everything, and he asked to go, there’s nothing stopping them from allowing that. I’m sure he won’t end up going, but I’m just merely pointing out a technicality. “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

OK so @Olympian1010 is wrong. The qualifications for these aren't easy. IOC at complete fault. heywoodu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
