Some good PB's by young Dutch athletes recently:

 

Britt Weerman 1m96 in high jump (national indoor record)

Pauline Hondema 6m57 in long jump

N'Ketia Seedo 7.21 in 60m

Sofie Dokter 4606 in pentathlon

 

Not to mention Femke Bol's 500m indoor PB, a result so good she might never break it again!

No Mariya Lasitskene. Interesting. Perhaps because her biggest competition are Ukranian girls and they don't want that conflict there.

Well, things are getting complicated now, because these athletes have completed anti-doping elegibility onlybut not any other kind.

I think this is only the beginning...the list is going to be enlarged quite soon.

yeah, we'll see how it develops.

 

however, first the IJF lifting any kind of ban against :RUS & :BLR, then this one...

 

if I were Ukranian, I wouldn't have a good feeling right now...:rolleyes: :nopompom:

Lasitskene is already in the ANA list, as noted in the press release. None of them can compete internationally still because of the war.

    • Yesterday results:  VS  33-21,  team continued their unbeaten record (35 game without losing in WCh since 2017) the game started for  and score reached 10-3 after 15 min, better performance from  team led to closing the gap to 15-12 by half time, the 2nd half had a margin favor for  till minute 40 when the Danish team start scoring 8 consecutive goals without response, 12 minutes until Brazil scored again, during that blackout time  GK Martins did really well but his team mates were not able to break the great wall of Nielsen. hard luck for  and wish they continue such great performance in next tournaments.     VS  31-30, the most improved and best performer so far  (except  for sure) had a great night yesterday. to get the summary of the game,  were playing  GK Wolff who made 21 saves in the game !! 21 !!! I believe at least 17-18 of them were one on one. on the other hand both  GKs did well saving 12 shots (Marques saved 7 while Capdeville saved 5). the game  started with  leading till end of first hal 13-9 ..  in second half ..ah ..sorry ..I will say Wolff not   ...Wolff in 2nd half managed to close the gap and even lead by 2 goals, but Portela and Francisco Costa were able to finish the time draw 26-26. the extra time started with  heading again thanks to :Francisco Costa and  Martim Costa .. Knorr and Zerbe managed to draw for the team Wolff ... but 4 seconds before the end Martim Costa scored the golden goal to secure the first ever  semifinal spot in a well deserved game with huge frustration from Wolff against his team mates.   in 2019  U21 team finished 4th in WCh ( finished 3rd in the same tournament) in the same year  U 19 team finished 4th too in Wch ( won that tournament) now  in the semi final with amazing performance and mix of mostly young players and few experienced.   Semi Final Games:   30th of Jan    VS   31st of Jan    VS        
    • I know that. I was just wondering if any users on here have been keeping track of quotas since FIS likely won't make the qualification points list public until spring at the earliest.    And judging by the lack of replies on here, it would seem like the answer is no unsurprisingly 
    • At this rate, we'll be getting a retirement announcement from Klæbo by the end of next week.
    • Yeah, there is a problem with sponsors or something like this.   I remember when Lucas changed nationality for Brazil thanks his brazilian mom it was very commented here.
    • Qualified at round of 16: Liverpool , Barcelona , Arsenal , Inter , Atletico , Leverkusen , Lille , Aston Villa     Playoff draw Friday 31 January 12:00 CET Seeded teams   Unseeded teams 9. Atalanta (ITA) 10. Borussia Dortmund (GER)   vs 23. Sporting CP (POR) 24. Club Brugge (BEL) 11. Real Madrid (ESP) 12. Bayern München (GER) vs 21. Celtic (SCO) 22. Manchester City (ENG) 13.

    • I know Norway is heavily cutting finances in ski jumping so presumably there is some economical shift in sports over there but it would be insane to have the likes of JTB or Riiber compete for Qatar or any other petroleum country now
    • What a match! Didn’t expect the win after the superb performance from the German gk, but they actually did it!!   
    • With Russia’s ongoing ban I’m a little surprised at least one of  hasn’t suddenly gotten very good at biathlon, cross country skiing, figure skating and/or ice hockey.
    • I said that Portugal would beat Germany.    
    • I honestly didn't expect the victory, not even my most optimistic self. But handball here has gained great visibility due to the historic campaign (at least more than it usually has) and I was hoping that we would have at least one great game against the Danes. It had been a long time since the world championships had even been broadcast here. But the main fear is that the sport will be abandoned again, like what happened after the end of our golden generation of women's handball. I hope not.
