Plus, the very saturated multi-sports games calendar this year... Edit: I would be quite sad for the girls. I thought they looked good (relative to the region) at the CAC Games. They aren't a team that will challenge for the podium, but they aren't going to embarrass their nation either. Edited October 8, 2023 by Olympian1010 Josh 1 “Sport has the power to change the world.

So is confirmed to have 2 athletes, but one will be in tennis! I believe this is the first time they have competed in a sport outside track and field Olympian1010 and Josh 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Post-covid world governments finally realizing that using taxpayer money to fund the 30th best athlete in the americas is pointless. Was about time.

Basically most countries in the continent. konig 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
