I've been following the Thai Gymnastics Federation on Facebook for a while and they were super excited for the SEA Games. Now they are over the moon with the gold medal in rhythmic gymnastics. Many Thais seem to be excited with the gold medal as well, given their reaction on Facebook, Twitter and YouTube. It's so nice to see rhythmic gymnastics being able to move fans and bring joy to a nation. Not may countries outside of Europe give proper credit to rhythmic gymnastics, unfortunately.

That's pretty much true. 

 

I remember how rythmic gymnastics is highlighted during the National games by Indian media because it is one of the only sports were Jammu and Kashmir gets its bulk of medals including gold. Gymnasts from J&K usually sweep the event with 4-6 golds in National games and National Championships.

Here's how the Sepaktakraw events were set :

 

Men's Event 

 

Hoop

Team Doubles 

Team Regu

Regu

 

 

Women's event 

Hoop

Regu

 

 

Rules : Phillipines can enter all events. All other nations can participate in 2 events each in men and women. :facepalm:

 

Similiar to AG 2018, but I rather prefer Quadrant event than Hoop.  Hoop is not bad but it is not true Sepaktakraw. The action you get to see in hoop is 0.001% as compared to ' real Takraw ' events.  What do you say @Griff88 @Olympian1010

I'm quoting myself after I realized I was wrong with the rules .

 

Mens event the rules are correct.

Women's event it's not even 2 events, all teams except host can participate in just 1 event. 

 

This meant :LAO :CAM :MYA women  came to the games and went Without playing Sepaktakraw .

 

Interestingly the 2 former nations weren't even shown live in men's doubles. When SEA nations originate the game such stupid rule is not expected. Or else invent more events so that host can win gold like artistic Sepaktakraw, rythmic Sepaktakraw, group ,individual etc:lol:So that hosts can win gold and we can see real Sepaktakraw from all teams.

@Olympian1010 any news about Timor Leste can they win a medal here

That’s a question for @Griff88. If Alpine Skiing was on the program, yes. Can’t really think of any other chances. In the back of my mind, I know there’s something I’m forgetting, but oh well.

I remember when Mexico sent pictures of their male gymnasts to the Universiade and the pictures were of the same person with the gymnasts' head pasted on them. :lol:

    • After four weekends of winter sports, we are slowly entering the middle of the winter season . And, as usual, it's time for statistics that I don't know which theared to put in      After 29 events, 20 different NOCs was already on the podium. After several seasons, Uzbekistan is also back on the podium thanks to figure skating (and two former Russians).   This weekend will be all about ice sports, with a total of 13 events: 4 in figure skating (first stage in Europe) and 9 in short track (second stage in Montreal, since SLC was cancelled)
    • World Boxing approved seven new applications from the National Federations in Andorra, Belgium, Iraq, Lithuania, Madagascar, Kyrgyzstan and Thailand. 
    • Out of curiosity, I listened to a few podcasts about Turkmenistan today. This country has very large deposits of natural gas. In the 1990s, a simple a ordinary people lived quite well there. In the early 21st century, Turkmenistan signed several unfavorable gas deals with China and has practically gone bankrupt since then. 1/3 of the population (about 2 million out of 6 million- mostly young people) emigrated, mainly to Turkey, India, etc. The future of this country is blacka and uncertain. I don't know what other options they have? Russia, Turkey, the EU? Of course, in terms of selling gas. Perhaps sanctions of Russia's and isolation due to the war in Ukraine would be a chance for Turkmenistan to establish economic relations with the EU, but the new president would probably have to loosen and a little liberate up his country's domestic politics.
    • A friend of mine who visited 97 countries of the world be in Turkmenistan (with Kunshamara, are the onlyones i know) and he tell me something that never see in another country: his presence was enough to make nervous to all the people, in restaurants, markets, etc, the presence of an "outsider" generate that.
