Badminton Qualification for Summer Olympic Games 2016


Recommended Posts

Only 41 nations have qualified (in 2012 there were 57 nations).

 

There will be more with wild cards, but still a considerably less comparing to London.

Will the South African men's singles quota be reallocated to Uganda?

 

It depends on whether the tripartite quotas plus quotas from potential athletes which have withdrawn are reallocated. Technically South Africa can qualify through the world rankings without the stipulation of being the highest ranked African nation which means the NOC will accept him.

Sadly all Lithuanian athletes failed. Oh well...

 

Lithuania has a small chance in the men's singles if a couple athletes withdraw (which has happened in the past)

Has Australia allready hinted which disciplines they might chose ?

 

All of the players/pairs are equally eligible based on Australia’s nomination criteria (all have less than 36000 points). The following criteria will be used to make their decision.

 

- Results  and  performances  at  BWF  international  sanctioned  tournaments (Within the last 12 month)

- Head to head wins at BWF international sanctioned tournaments that indicate that a top 8 placement at the 2016 Olympics is realistic. Matches won against top 30 BWF World Ranked opponents will be considered. (Within the last 12 month)

- Results  and  performances  at  the  2016  Individual  Australian  National Championship to be held from 29 Feb – 2 March 2016 at the Melbourne Sport and Aquatic Centre.

 

Without looking at results I want to say that the pairs will have an advantage while the men’s singles will be the least likely.

    • https://nypost.com/2026/01/31/sports/team-canada-skeleton-coach-joe-cecchini-speaks-out-after-american-katie-uhlaender-manipulation-claim/   Oh the drama....   Cecchini: “I don’t really wanna speak negatively about Katie, but Katie was not on the World Cup team. She wasn’t a top-tier athlete in that program anymore. She was at the end of her career. I would personally would rather race against Katie. She’s not as competitive as the other athletes,” he said. “It’s probably really unfair to say and not really where I want to go with this but that’s where we are with that.”   Uhlaender: “If I were Canada, I would be concerned in how this coach is representing the Olympic values for his country,” Uhlaender told Fox News Digital. “He hurt a whole field of athletes, all with dreams, and this sends the message that they don’t matter unless they are number one. All athletes matter, and we all deserve to compete fairly, with integrity, and respect. He did not respect anyone in that field. “This is not about my resume or how good the athletes were in the race. This is about the fact that he intentionally manipulated the competition to hurt myself and 13 other countries because he felt it necessary to eliminate all possibility. That is against the spirit of sport and not what the Olympic movement represents.”   Isn't it great when other people's dirty laundry is aired?  /sarcasm
    • Idea (that I don't want to mess with right now, but someone else can steal the idea): Could feed the docs from LA28 + Paris 2024 through AI and see what it says.  (Would just take downloading them, perhaps merging them for ease of upload, and passing it through.)
    • If you have time would love to see a sport by sport overview of the changes/new sports
    • Slowly going through the documents.   Looks like canoe slalom qualifiers will be a bit different. More kayak cross quotas which will let nations to essentially qualify two kayakers.
    • How about we choose either Rome or Milano  I hate this timeline we have entered of multiple host cities / countries. The football World Cup became ludicrous, we don't need the Olympics to join them. At least not more than they already are.

    • FIBA World Cup Qualifier March P.R.   This is my proposed Young Guns Developmental Roster. The FIBA World Cup Qualifier in P.R. is a throwaway tour- nament for Team USA after the Gold Medal Game debacle. This is the perfect environment to test the Young Guns to see who has it, who does not, and who needs more devel- opment. The 2026 FIBA World Cup in Berlin is the tuneup for 2028 in L.A. The game against Spain will answer many questions.   Betts     Center age: 22 Boston  Center age: 24 Brink     SF, F   age: 24 Stewart  F, PF  age: 32 Kiki Iriafen F     age: 22 Jackson SF       age: 24 Howard  SF, SG age: 26 CC         PG       age: 24 Paige     SG       age: 24 Young    SG, PG age: 28 Plum      SG, PG age: 32 Citron    SG         age: 22
    • I'm also reminded as I know Canadians are painfully aware that if figures hadn't been a part of the 1984 Olympics, then Brian Orser would have won gold.  Hamilton could have finished 4th in the free skate that year and still beat Orser who finished 7th in the figures
    • claimed their 3rd European title after beating 34-27  First title since 2012  got the bronze after beating   34-33   is the best team in the world by far 👏👏👏
