Though i was following football since 10 Was amazing and magical feeling.. returning back from school to watch summary of the day (summary at 4 pm local time due to time difference) you may guess now that olympics.. at that time no internet no live broadcast except few events Presenter’s sound was like from under sea .. since then I became addicted 😍 Josh and Sindo 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still remember staying up much later than I was normally allowed so I could watch Vonn take gold in the women’s downhill. I also have a very fond memory of getting home from school just in time to catch the cross country skiing sprint finals. El Analyzer and Josh 1 1 “Sport has the power to change the world.

You need to know most of the users who register are actually spammers, or users who find an event they are interested in the calendar section and think by registering to the website they register to take part in the event We might have a legit new user here, though! @Erigert You are not a spammer, are you?

Sindo 1,496 Posted November 27, 2023 #598 Share Posted November 27, 2023 Just now, heywoodu said: Seriously, doesn't one have to be a bit...'off'....let's say, to think registering on what is very clearly a forum will register for an actual international sports event? Some people find calendar events (example: https://totallympics.com/events/event/29673-sprint-canoeing-cac-african-championships-2023/) through a google search, so they do not even surf the website and they just ask for information about that event. I often receive e-mail from athletes/coaches asking how can they register to that event Of course it does not happen to Wimbledon or FIFA World Cup event, mainly for smaller tournaments especially in sports like Taekwondo where I have added to the calendar lots of events because they are qualifiers for Paris 2024.

Interesting how the thought process goes of some people Fun thing, the example you mentioned has the ICF's website as literally the first hit on Google....including a contact email address and phone number If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!
