Qualification system for weightlifting

 

Only some sports/events have a qualification process. Hopefully CGF start to officially release more of them.

I’ve seen a few. Badminton, Beach Volleyball, Cricket, Hockey, Para Powerlifting, and Para Triathlon have all released early versions of theirs.

 

From my understanding, under the most recent CGF Strategic Agenda, all sports should be shifting towards qualification systems.

If I’m not mistaken, weightlifting has seen a reduction of quota for these Games as well.

One of the biggest obstacles is some nations wouldn't be eligible to participate in qualification, mostly due to being part of Great Britain and not having a recognized separate federation within certain sports.

 

The other issue of course is it would kill the participant rate of the smaller nations. Though that can be solved by giving every nation 15-20 quotas to use as they like (minus events where a set number of participants are required) and subtract one for every athlete qualified (not including team events)

    • Some other fast swims today include a new commonwealth record by Duncan Scott in the 400m free and a European record in the 100m IM by Marchand. Watch out for some quick swims in the 200m free and 200m IM later on. 
    • Last stop on this TISC Central Asia tour: Turkmenistan    One of the most closed and censored lands in the world, Turkmenistan is a place with incredible things to visit, with a beautiful desert landscape, historical ruins from ancient civilisations, and the unique "Door to Hell".   But it is also a country where everything is controlled and restricted (we had no access to social networks and tons of blocked websites, can only enter with invitation letter, with a predefined tour and accompanied by a guide at all times), with giant megalomaniac buildings created in order to maintain a cult of the leader and its regime. It basically felt like what i imagine is North Korea (but without the hate for americans).   It is eccentric, it is impressive, but above all, it is bizarre. Here is a patriotic catchy song i heard when was traveling there. .      Mähri Pirgulyýewa – Halkyň arkadagly zamanasy

    • Took a couple of videos, but completely forgot to take even a single picture and the file size of the videos are too big for Totallympics so I had to find a site to upload it to   https://streamable.com/ga23lv   Vibes at the game were good, place was loud, and I downed a $6 poutine from Costco before the game. Unfortunately, the game didn’t go so well, it took us a solid 45 minutes to actually start playing hockey besides some bursts here and there, and after coming back from down 1-3 we gave up the OT goal less than a minute in (Typical Canucks fashion), but  Lankinen stole us a point, they had so many solid opportunities on him and we had no business staying close.    Really mediocre start to the season for the Canucks so far, even with 11 points in 8 games, a lot of players not showing up (Petey, Soucy, Myers, Hög, Miller, DeBrusk, although for DeBrusk he’s been known to have a streaky game) and our power play and overtime have been fucking dogshit (power play has been like this for years). Shoutout to Garland, Hughes, Sherwood and Lankinen though they’ve been incredible so far
