Do you need to qualify to take part of this tournament, or is it open to everyone ? Or there any other special reason why we are not participating ?

No real restrictions on entries. There’s plenty of info on the pre-event stuff here

Ok, it must be simply us then. For some reason we did not send anyone. No idea why, as far as I know, the national team was reinstated last year after the previous season drastic dissolution.

:IND 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.

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.

good news for :ITA:

 

- the women's Double Sculls (despite being both lightweights, our girls proved themselves more than competitive also among the senior crews...a truly amazing quota place is not out of reach now -they're in the semis, they only need not to end last in the B Final and Paris will not be only a dream anymore)

 

-the men's Quadruple Sculls look in top form...they might even win it all

 

the bad news:

 

-almost everything not mentioned above, especially the women's Quadruple Sculls

 

the awful news:

 

Rodini & Cesarini...our women's Lightweight Double Sculls Olympic Champions most likely won't even qualify to the Paris Games...today they were just painful to watch

Today Rodini & Cesarini do a great repechage heat, i didn't expect that. Let's see in semifinals..
