Winter Paralympic Games Milano Cortina 2026


Recommended Posts

:GER has joined the boycott. EU and more then 10 countries now

 

IPC is in panickicng about the opening ceremony.

 

According to the latest news they canceled athletes-flagbearers.

2 alternatives are on the table: volonteers or pre-recorded videos instead.

 

At the same time boycott means that we did not allow them to use our flag at the ceremony at all. So they are not allowed to simulate our presence.

I’m not sure the IPC will accept that. A country flag is not copyrighted. 
 

The video sequence is due to be filmed today or tommrow if it hasn’t already.

I can also see the IPC pulling broadcaster accreditation. Let’s face it if Russia demands it Parsons will agree as he doesn’t want to go out the window.

Anyway....putting politics aside, we are off with Session 1 of the Mixed Doubles Curling!

Which C4 doesn’t seem to have commentary on. The You Tube stream just has the sound from the arena.

I think they can show it in some prepared video.

 

But using it physically at the ceremony will be a scandal.

Sorry, it is not so easy to put it aside for us. Just imagine feeling of the British athletes at the competition where Nazi flag was used during WW2.

By the way officials from :GBR :AUT :ROU joined the boycott

I don’t think that will stop the IPC.

    • Mets lost 9 games in a row. That's their longest losing streak in April since 1963 (their second season in existance).
    • Van Mathias posted a 58.18 100m breaststroke time at the Bergen Swim Festival. Now the #5 performer all time.
    • In Italy, it's generally impossible to watch it anywhere except on pay TV on our federation's website, which is of terrible quality: there's no clock, only the score. The 2026 Olympics were an exception, with women's hockey being on free-to-air television. Most people in southern Italy probably don't even know that women's hockey exists
    • In 2024, Italy beat Slovakia 3-2 at the World Champ Division I B, but objectively, we were two level under you in that time and now we're at a similar level. Italy won here surprisingly easily – it was even 6-2 on begining of 3 period, but Slovakia showed strength in the matches against Hungary and Norway. On paper, I think Hungary is still the best here, so you have a good chance against France – even a 2-point win is probably enough for you. Regarding Italy, in 2022/23, we even lost to Poland and Slovenia, so we've made significant progress. Now it's crucial to continue this project and avoid something like China. Italy always needs support from North America, but we also have good local players – for example, our leading striker: Mathilde Fantin, is a born in Italy- Cuneo.
    • Thanks. We´ll see. If it has to happen it will. It it does not have to happen yet, it will not... yet.   Our woman´s program is working a couple of years now with a group of girls since their early teenage years, through Youth Winter Olympics and EYOFs and several team meetings, the core of the group is still around late teen and early twentys. Also it is obviously build around Nela Lopušanová who is still 18 years old.   The goal was set for the Olympics, maybe 2030 will be too soon but the program is showing every year bigger results and is still not over, we hopw by 2034 being a competitive team at the Olympics.   For the worlds we also are trying step by step, so even if not tomorrow this group of girls will certainly qualify to the elite in the upcoming time and the goal is obviously to be able to stay there as well once our time will arrive.    
    • Italy's expectations were probably too high – we were newcomers here. Our performance at the Olympics was up our capabilities, in my opinion. Now it's crucial to continue this project and hire a good coach who will work seriously for all time, not just for the Olympics, like Bouchard.
