2nd and last qualification pool starts this Friday! This time from Panama City. This qualifier features teams from the Americas, Asia and Oceania and features :ARG Argentina, :BRA Brazil, :NZL New Zealand, :NCA Nicaragua, :PAK Pakistan, and :PAN Panama. Unlike the 1st qualification pool, this pool is a bit more top heavy. On paper, Brazil, Nicaragua and Panama are the 3 clear favourites competing for 2 spots in the World Baseball Classic with Panama being biggest favourite of the 3. Personally I'm hoping for Panama and Nicaragua to qualify here since they are countires where baseball is the number 1 sport in the country but they haven't had qualification success in past tournaments.

October 1st Scores:

 

:BRA Brazil 4-1 Nicaragua :NCA

:ARG Argentina 0-11 Panama :PAN F/7

 

Huge win by Brazil. Nicaragua looked pretty sloppy on the other hand so it'll be interesting to see if they can rebound if they end up playing again. In the other game, Panama clearly showed why they're the class of this qualifying group.

 

October 2nd Schedule:

October 2nd Scores:

 

:PAK Pakistan 0-12 Nicaragua :NCA F/7

:NZL New Zealand 1-4 Argentina :ARG

 

Pakistan and New Zealand are eliminated from qualification. In the first game, no surprises as Nicaragua is in a completely different tier than Pakistan. Much different story in the 2nd game though. New Zealand was shutting out Argentina through 6 innings but had a complete meltdown in the 7th inning and allowed Argentina to score 4 runs. Nicaragua and Argentina will now play for the right to play for the final qualification spot. Brazil vs. Panama will be the first qualification matchup.

I think Nicaragua were going to boycott the 1984 Olympics in support of the Soviet Union but the people were so keen to see their country in the baseball demonstration event that the president had to back down and allow the team to go to LA.

Argentina almost beat Nicaragua :yikes:. But Nicaragua still hangs on 6-5 and will play the loser of Panama vs. Brazil. Looks like it's Panama and Brazil's qualifying spots to lose.

      Shooting ISSF World Cup 2025

      By phelps · Posted

      so, the 2025 season is officially over, after the World Cup Finals have been completed with the Shotgun events, where (once again!!!) a new format for the final stage of each event has been experimented for the first time (before it becomes a regular feature in the next season)   the new format enlarge the starting field in each event's final stage to 8 shooters and dramatically shortens the number of target shots to decide the placings   the only characteristic remaining is the progressive eliminations principle   now, as written above, 8 shooters make the final, where after only 12 targets the eliminations start: by then, the last 2 shooters must leave the competition (7th and 8th ranked)   after 12 more targets (24 in total), 2 more shooters have to leave the final (5th and 6th ranked)   then, the crazy carousel starts: every 4 targets we have a new elimination  so, after 28 targets, the 4th ranked shooter is done; after 32 targets the bronze medallist is known and after only 36 targets (provided there's no need for a shoot-off), compared to the previous 60, the gold and silver medallists are crowned   I guess the tiktok people with the attention span of a chinchilla have won once again
