:FRA has reportedly withdrawn from athletics and cycling.

They also withdrew from women’s basketball, but will send athletes in judo and wrestling.

CIJF announced the groups for the team sports a while back…

 

Women’s Basketball: 

Pool A - :CGO:LBN:COD:GUI

Pool B - :MAD:CIV:FRA:MAR

Pool C - :HAI:SEN:QUE:BEN

Pool D - :CHA:CMR:WLL:TUN

Entry list for women’s basketball has really taken a nosedive.


:CIV:FRA:GUI:MAR:QUE:WLL all withdrew or failed to send a team. Pools had to be redrawn/amended. Chad was also allowed to enter a team even though weren’t originally allocated one.

 

:HAI took a walkover loss today. Hopefully they show up for the next two games, but I fear another team has been lost.

Men’s Football:

Pool A - :COD:CAN:CGO:MAD

Pool B - :FRA:TUN:NIG:BUR

Pool C - :SEN:BEN:CMR:MTN

Pool D - :MAR:CIV:LBN:GUI

Men’s football has also met a similar fate to women’s basketball

 

:CAN:CIV:FRA:MAD:MAR:TUN:MTN:GUI all withdrew or failed to send a team. :MLI was allowed to enter team, so groups were redrawn/amended with nine countries entered into the competition.

:LUX withdrew their entire team from the Games. :CAM:CPV:CYP:MTN:SRB also appear to be absent even though they indicated an interest in participating during the entries phase.

The medal table race will likely be more interesting in light of the withdrawals/no-shows. :CAN:FRA will need to do very well in judo/wrestling and the arts to leave themselves with any hope of a high finish. :ROU:MAR might be able to top the medal table if they’re able to capitalize on the absence of most of the other powerhouses in athletics, cycling, and table tennis. :SEN could also be a challenger for top spot on the medal table if they repeat their performance from six years ago. 
 

Still waiting on confirmation of entires in a few sports. If competitions are live-streamed somewhere, I’ll probably follow along. I like the concept of these Games, even if their future is uncertain.

I have been in the stadium before the Opening Ceremony. That was a very nice athmosphere, and something nice to experience for someone who has grown up in Europe. I have some pictures and videos, but internet is very bad and it is very difficult for me to upload them here unfortunately.

    • impossible, there are not enough venues in both towns and I mean, Milan doesn't have an Olympic Stadium, a decent Tennis Complex and a big Swimming Complex (not to mention the sea) Rome, on the other hand, doesn't have a Rowing/Canoeing Basin nor arenas and stadiums for the team sports beyond football and rugby there's no chance that all those venues would be built from scratch, meanwhile if we use both cities we already have almost everything we need, especially the most expensive and controversial sites

    • 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     (I was a little surprised to see NPR pick this up, but per this article, Uhlaender preemptively recorded the phone call after receiving a text from Cecchini that said he had 'bad news' for her.)
    • 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.)

    • 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.

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.
