I wonder what will Malta decide too do and Cyprus. I’d say the Commonwealth Games are a bigger deal, but who knows. Either way, it’s douche move to choose the same dates.

It might just come down to which sports choose to send a team where (and rather the NOC can afford it). “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

Olympian1010 7,483 Posted December 21, 2020 #46 Share Posted December 21, 2020 There’s finally a nice official website: http://oran2022.com They have the events program listed here, and let’s just say it’s an “interesting” collection of events once more. I’ve listed some “highlights” below: Athletics - No 10000m, High Jump is men’s only, Hammer Throw is women’s only, Shot Put is men’s only, Triple Jump is men’s only Basketball - is 3x3 only once again, no 5x5 events Boxing - 9 weight classes, men’s only Fencing - will have a full program of 6 individual events once more, unlike that weirdness in Tarragona Football - U23, men’s only Gymnastics - Artistic only, Rhythmic has been dropped Weightlifting - only 4 events! 2 weight class each for men/women Wrestling - looks like they haven’t finalized the program, or there’s a glitch on the page... Equestrian - Jumping only once again Table Tennis - Doubles events, instead of Team events Shooting - 10m events + trap(?) Sailing - 4 events only, RS:X + Laser events Volleyball - Beach Volleyball has been dropped There will be 0 Mixed events on the program. There will be no para-sport events on the program. Canoe, Golf, Rowing, Triathlon, Water Skiing have all been dropped as well. Gianlu33 1 “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

Jur 546 Posted December 22, 2020 #47 Share Posted December 22, 2020 No women's football....... The athletics events are a monstruosity. the programme is ugly- They took out a lot of things from previous years and didn't replace it with nothing.

Almost certainly, because of budget reasons i reckon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
