Athletics team championships with all NOCs must be a hell of organization stuff   just imagine the pole vault or high jump comptitions with 50 athletes

 

great to see canoeing slalom & shooting in, also kickboxing should be medal possibility for us here

Together with 50 but separated to 3 leagues to 3 competitions. So 16 in each.

Honestly, you can smell the desparation from here.

My breakdown of the men’s canoe qualifers from the European Championships. The system is a bit complex, so fair chance this isn’t totally accurate.

M C1 200m -  

M C1 500m -
M C2 500m -  
 

All boat quotas filled, but 2 athlete quotas left over in C1.  first in line for reallocation in C1 200m. There are no more eligible NOCs in C1 200m. However, if the remaining athlete quota place is applied to C1 500m, then it may go to .

 

2 athletes quota left in C2, one should go to . There are no other eligible NOCs.

W C1 200m -  

W C1 500m -
W C2 500m -

 

10 boat quotas, and 14 athlete quotas left in C1. There no remaining eligible NOCs.

 

5 boat quotas, and 14 athlete quotas left in C2. There no remaining eligible NOCs.
 

Not really sure what happens to the mountain of unassigned quotas here…

Maybe two boats per nation will be allowed then?

It seems unlikely as the qualification system is pretty clear about one boat per NOC per event. They could maybe decide to apply them to women’s kayak or men’s canoe/kayak to invite countries that didn’t qualify a boat, or just decide to leave them as dead quota.

Taekwondo will have eight weight classes per gender. Qualification system: https://www.eurolympic.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/TAEKWONDO_EG2023_QUALIFICATION-SYSTEM.pdf
