Or there any other special reason why we are not participating ? No real restrictions on entries.

No idea why, as far as I know, the national team was reinstated last year after the previous season drastic dissolution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roamingrover86 495 Posted September 4, 2023 #103 Share Posted September 4, 2023 has not sent a team too. Our Rowing federation had governance issues previously and most rowers are from our Army/navy . They want to concentrate on the Asian Games so decided against sending a team for world championships which offers quota places ! I guess they evaluated we don’t stand a chance to win a quota place in these world championships so better to concentrate on the Asian Games ( we are sending a full team) where we might win medals , possibly Gold as well.

Makedonas 1,666 Posted September 4, 2023 #104 Share Posted September 4, 2023 Not a great day for us. W2- seems like they will still get the quota regardless, but now the LW2X doesn't look so sure and W2X too young and inexperienced (20 yo and 18 yo). Their U23/U19 success in recent years can only take them so far in such a competitive boat class at the senior level. That being said, I expect them to be much better next year to fight for a quota, as they'll each be one year older. The other option is to send a W4- with the Kyridou sisters, Fragkou, and Tsamopoulou which should qualify and then hope a teenage combination of Dalidou with Lioliou or Natsioula can do it in W2X but it won't be easy. At this point, only M1X and W2- seem 95% likely for us. LM2X and LW2X have been disappointing so far, and I didn't have such high expectations for M2X and W2X anyways. maestro and Josh 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
